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.

Give credit to Mr. Morgan for being honest and not the kabuki theater of wanting to ban "assault" weapons because they have some cosmetic feature that has no bearing on the rate of fire..

I think a semi-automatic handgun would have come in handy for those 3 YouTuber’s. Not that I’m on their side, just sayin’.

Go back to merry old disarmed England and SHUT UP, Morgan. You and the Left will NEVER conquer us.

Piers Morgan is a douchebag.

Piers seems to lack basic reading comprehension. He needs to few a few excerpts of the founders writings and the federalist papers, as well as two centuries of Supreme Court opinion to understand that he is incorrect.

Hope he gets a lot of air time.

He’s not the best spoksperson for the anti-gun crowd.

Maybe it’s his British accent.

How would a Limey know what a civilian needs? America is a free country Spanky. When it comes to freedom, “need” isn’t part of the equation. There is a huge difference between “need” and freedom.

Morgan, please shut up.

If you don’t like America, go back to Britain.

Freeper Celerity: Remove all gun control laws, “Every human has the right to defend themselves anyway they see fit”

See how easy that was? Only for some reason, this UK citizen (NOT a US citizen, as he states on his own twitpot) has the same or more clout than my opinion.

I’m a US Citizen. Born. Natural. What I say is backed not only by more than half of the US population (Covering the ‘Democracy’ base) It’s also the law of the land.

So anyone who says that guns should be banned are creatures with less than half of the right to speak as a human being.

Why would Americans care what a foreigner thinks about their exercise of their constitutional rights in their own country? What business is it of his?

Hey I think the National Desth Service is a disastrous failure and charging people a tax on each TV they buy to pay for a national broadcaster.....one which pushes extremely politically biased content is fascist. I’m sure the Brits care just as deeply about what I think of their policies in their own country.

Piers Morgan and the rest of the thugs on the political left are the reason why all civilians need semi-automatic firearms. We are buying more guns and ammo last month and this month in honor of yet another push to disarm us. We will not be controlled by the all-powerful government they dream of creating. If they want our weapons . . . Molon Labe.

I guess Mr. Morgan doesn’t want to bother reading up on his own country’s history in that permits for legally acquiring shotguns were not required until 1967 and that before that time, violent crime was very extremely low in the United Kingdom. As modern gun controls were introduced (after Hungerford and later Dunblane), violent crime began to stand head and shoulders above the pre 1967 rates.

Piers is a mere subject. We are citizens. Our government derives its just powers from the consent of the governed, rather than from the divine right of kings, and we will never consent to disarmament.

Piers Morgan

Pontificating from a country that is convinced that pointy nosed kitchen knives are weapons of mass destruction.
Ignore this fool. Except as comedy entertainment.

Only those willing to protect America from the type of Tyranny you propose, Piers.

We’ll let you go disarm the criminals, if you care.

Thanks for stupid opinion, Piers. Americans don’t tell England what to do, and as for the reverse, well, that’s why there was a Revolution.
