28. Self-righteous anti-nukes.

FBaggins,

As a scientist, this is one of the things that infuriates me most with the anti-nukes - they are so damn self-righteous.

Contrary to what scientists and engineers do, the anti-nukes play "fast and loose" with the facts. If they are corrected on their "facts", they don't take heed.

That's where the "self-righteousness" of the anti-nukes kicks in. They "know" ( term used loosely ) that they are right; so they don't have to take care with their facts and figures. They can spread any type of misinformation and crap that they want, and ignore anyone that corrects them; all because they are "right"!

FBaggins, you've corrected another myth that the anti-nukes spread. For Heaven's sake, don't they know that when you are up in space and exposed to the radiation from the unshielded fusion reactors that we call "stars", that the radiation is more than what one finds in the Fukushima reactor buildings. We send robots with names like "Voyager", "Opportunity", and the like out to study the Universe, and those little robots aren't "fried".

I wish the anti-nukes would use their brains and do a "sanity check" on the information they spew before they spew this crap.

People have a right to their own opinions, but they don't have a right to their own facts.
