Gun Control: Piers Morgan Wants To Eviscerate The 2nd Amendment
Market Daily News ^ | December 14, 2012 | Melissa Melton

Michael Moore isn’t the only media figurehead openly calling for stricter gun control on the social media site Twitter today.

Not only does Piers Morgan apparently want to straight up take away people’s guns, but he has a multi-step plan for exactly how America should be disarmed.

The host of CNN’s Piers Morgan Tonight went on an anti-gun Tweet rant following the mass shooting in a Connecticut school that left 28 people, including 20 children, dead earlier this morning.

“Only way forward for America is a national gun policy, same (much tougher) laws for everyone. No assault weapons for civilians, period,” Morgan wrote, before following it up by laying out a plan to disarm the American public. Morgan called for a “minimum 3 references” and “detailed vetting over 6-8 weeks.” He also claimed that no one under 25 should have a gun, and neither should “ANYONE with ANY mental health history whatsoever.” Morgan finishes by stating that “No American needs more than one firearm at home to protect themselves under 2nd Amendment.”

(TWEETS AT LINK)

Morgan’s plan, while seemingly comprehensive, leaves many questions. If America were to “ban guns on anyone under 25,” then how would we have a military? Would we have to raise the age limit on joining the police force or becoming a soldier? Who is the person that Morgan suggests we get a reference from? Why would that make any difference? What are the guidelines for his “extensive social media checks”? What exactly constitutes a “mental health history”?

As Paul Joseph Watson reported, “Morgan is seemingly ignorant of the fact that the decision to ban handguns in Britain did nothing to lower gun crime...

According to DOJ crime statistics, guns are used 2.5-million times per year to prevent violent crimes like rape, robbery, carjackings and home-invasions, 99% of the time without a shot being fired.

GUNFACTS DOT INFO

But screw those 2.5 million people. Having them robbed or raped or carjacked is a small price to pay to ensure that robbers and rapists and home-invaders and carjackers and mass-murderers are safe.

Vetting, and I am sure you want a valid ID shown?

OK you SOB, why don’t you start with the proper vetting of Barack Obama. Secondly, you people are fighting us on having illegals show voter ID, Lord only knows how many armed criminals come into this country through this porous southern border that Janet Napolitano refuses to protect.

Can you spell HYPOCRISY? A-hole.

I know I'm preaching to the choir here, but if citizens aren't to have "assault" weapons, then only the government will.

Correct me if I am wrong here, but wasn't the 2nd amendment put in place to protect us from our government if it became tyrannical?

seems to me, the problem isn’t guns... but those using them for evil acts

so the amendment that should be gutted isn’t the 2nd... but the 1st

the nonstop sludge pouring from media has obviously infected the weaker minds in society

That foreign fool was pontificating about no one needing an “assault rifle,” when the rifle was locked in the shooter’s car. We should suspect all foreign media types of being unAmerican infiltrators, out to destroy our Constitution.

Of course. The whole idea of the 2nd Amendment is that the citizens should have sufficient firepower so that they can go up against the army which is being fielded by their government.

If the Marines have it, I should be able to have it.

Note also that the Constitution discusses Letters of Marque -- which presupposes that a private citizen may own a ship suitable to perform the duties of a US Navy warship on the high seas. Such a citizen may put his ship at the service of the government -- or perhaps use his ship to fight against the US Navy.

No, I do not expect a citizen to own an aircraft carrier -- but the point is: according to the US Constitution, a citizen could.

As I said on another thread, I heard Piers last night and he was out of his mind, screaming above the voices of the three men he had on with him, demanding all guns be gone from this country. He knows nothing of this country and our individual liberty freedoms. This POS needs to get out of this country and go back to freaking England.
