Piers Morgan couldnt leave quietly. At the end of the final episode of Piers Morgan Live Friday, the CNN host known for his militant anti-gun agenda signed off with one last screed about what he sees as Americas absurd gun laws.
The scourge of gun violence is a disease that now infects every aspect of American life, he said. Now I assumed that after 70 people were shot in a movie theater, and then just a few months later 20 first graders were murdered with an assault rifle in an elementary school, that the absurd gun laws in this country would change. But nothing has happened.
The gun lobby in America, led by the NRA, has bullied this nations politicians into cowardly, supine silence even when 20 young children are blown away in their classrooms, he continued. This is shameful situation thats frankly made me very angry. So angry in fact that some people have criticized me for being too loud, opinionated, even rude when I debated the issue of guns. But I make no apologies for that.
Morgan concluded by arguing that his vocal stance on gun control made him very pro-American.
And to those who claim my gun control campaigning has been anti-American, well, the reverse is true. I am so pro-American, I want more of you to stay alive, he said. But Ive made my point Ive given it a tremendous whack. Now its down to you. It is your country. These are your gun laws. And the senseless slaughter will only end when enough Americans stand together and cry, enough. I look forward to that day.
what he sees as Americas absurd gun laws
The ONLY absurd gun laws Mr. Wizard Morgan are the anti gun laws,,,, all 20,000 of them. But than again I forgot that you come from a country where the Bobbies have to say Stop,,,, or I'll have to say stop again". Absolutely pathetic.
The gun lobby in America, led by the NRA, has bullied this nations politicians into cowardly, supine silence
You've got to be kidding me,,,, the NRA has failed it's members on many key issues,,,, the NRA is just another money grab.
made him very pro-American"
You used the wrong pretence ol' chap,,,, you meant to say ANTI
But Ive made my point
You jolly well have ol boy, you've sure emphasized the fact that your assertions are about as useless as a screen door on a submarine. Hope the doors at CNN didn'thit hit you in the head a$$ on your way out.
Deport the bastard.
I’m upset about the free speech laws that let this guy rail against the constitution and. . . oh, wait a minute.
Take a long walk off a short Piers! ;)
“Deport the bastard.”
I agree, but Britain won’t take him back.
Why thank you!
I too look forward to the day when we get rid of these absurd gun laws. What part of "shall not be infringed" is so hard for power hungry wannabe tyrants to grasp?
Piers never debated the issue of guns. He made biased emotional proclamations without facts,
IF OUR FOREFATHERS HAD A TWIT LIKE YOU IN CHARGE WE WOULD STILL BE ENGLISH SUBJECTS! Be gone you loudmouthed liberal self proclaimed anti-gun douche bag.
Hey I agree with him. The gun laws are absurd and need to be repealed.
I agree, but Britain wont take him back.
Canada and Australia said no thanks, he might fit in in New Zealand, but I think he should go to Iran, I bet they would love him!
“Set fire to Piers Morgan.”
We’re of the same mind, because I was thinking of Jeremy Clarkson’s comment when I read your post but had not yet opened the video. Clarkson would drag Piers behind an F1 car for a lap or two, given the chance. Or maybe Piers could have done a “ride along” in the rocket-propelled Mini that Top Gear sent down the ski jump at Lilihammer!
“Canada and Australia said no thanks, he might fit in in New Zealand, but I think he should go to Iran, I bet they would love him!”
Yeah, looking like Piers Morgan is the 21st century Aaron Burr.
As my dear friend from UK likes to say, ‘he’s a right wanker, he is’.
Yeah, go live in London if you think you’re safer there from gun violence. Moron.
Any questions?
but I think he should go to Iran, I bet they would love him!
Send him to Norkland.
