Piers Morgan: Ban All Semi-Automatic Guns, ‘No Civilian Needs One’
Breitbart ^ | April 3, 2018 | AWR Hawkins

Posted on 04/04/2018 5:56:56 AM PDT by C19fan

Piers Morgan used a series of tweets Monday to call for a ban on all semi-automatic guns and stress his conviction that “no civilian needs one.” His call for a ban on semi-automatic firearms was followed by other tweets in which he told Americans that the Second Amendment was never intended to protect an individual right to keep and bear arms. Rather, it was only intended to protect militias members’ ability to be armed.

It’s a Bill of Rights, not a Bill of Needs.

The US Constitution authorizes Congress to issue Letters of Marque (to private citizens).

To implement a Letter of Marque, the designated citizen would need to own one or more BATTLESHIPS.

How about that, Piers, ol’ buddy?

Here's the deal Piers .... (and mind your own business in your own country):

The Second Amendment is a doomsday provision, one designed for those exceptionally rare circumstances where all other rights have failed—where the government refuses to stand for reelection and silences those who protest; where courts have lost the courage to oppose, or can find no one to enforce their decrees. However improbable these contingencies may seem today, facing them unprepared is a mistake a free people get to make only once.

“Only the police should have semi-autos”

Tell it to the people of Sacramento.

Technically, police are “civilians”. As are the private security who protect Piers. Does he support taking away THEIR semi-autos?

Morgan does not understand that “illegal is not synonymous with unavailable”

Piers may be honest but he just doesn’t get it. If anyone shows up to confiscate my guns I’m gonna want all the firepower I can muster.

A double-action revolver is pretty darn close to being “semi-automatic”.

The next step would be banning them as well.

But you have implement the agenda one goose-step at a time. Right, Piers?

There is a reason that they are called Europe-peons. Having lived under an earthly king for generations they cannot comprehend the freedom granted by a Living God in Christ Jesus.

Sadly, many of our own countrymen have denied God and embraced an earthly life. But the core of this country is faith not in man, but in the Creator of man. And the right to bear weapons is as the Constitution says not granted by other men, but by the Creator of man.

Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of happiness, all come with your first breath in this land. Men who would make themselves gods, claim others freedom to lift themselves above the crowd, but here, the crowd has the freedom to resist them.

Totalitarian dictatorship is a bit more difficult to achieve here.

I’m surprised Piers can speak after Shapiro’s twitter smackdown of this, well, twit.

Semi-automatics are ordinary guns. It’s the vision thing that people have....they don’t look like muskets...

The Brits ban carrying of knives in public, but not acid, though acid attacks are on a meteoric rise there.

Like any Brit, Morgan has no credibility on the “who needs what firearm” issue.

Piers Morgan isn't even an American, is he? I really don't care what he advocates for the citizens of the UK or wherever he's from, but his convictions mean nothing to me or to the 2nd Amendment.
