Piers Morgan Lashes Out on Twitter Against Petition Asking White House to Deport Him
Forbes ^ | 12/24/12 | Alex Kantrowitz

Posted on 12/24/2012 1:31:28 PM PST by Clint N. Suhks

Piers Morgan lashed out on Twitter today after a petition on the White House’s official website demanding his deportation blew past the 25,000 signature mark necessary to require an official response.

The petition, now over 45,000 signatures, asks the White House to deport Morgan, a CNN host, for what it calls an attack on the second amendment. Morgan, who is British, has been an outspoken advocate for gun control in the aftermath of the Newtown shootings earlier this month. The petition calls his advocacy a “hostile attack against the U.S. Constitution,” and demands that he “be deported immediately for his effort to undermine the Bill of Rights and for exploiting his position as a national network television host to stage attacks against the rights of American citizens.”

In the early going, Morgan seemed to be amused by the petition, retweeting links to it and playfully urging his followers to sign. But, after the petition passed the 25,000 threshold, he returned to Twitter to bash the petition, calling it ridiculous and stating that his positions on gun control are not anti-constitutional but rather common sense. Morgan also retweeted a number of tweets supporting him.

Just for stirring the fire, BUT

What would UK do if some Yank were on the radio or telly harping against the laws of the land and its citizens (naturally ok for a ‘native’ to do it) etc.

Yet this piece of trash (the only reason I even suspect he is a ‘ferriner’ is from what I read, here. I have never heard or laid an eyeball on him) will say he is HERE is because of that ‘Freedom of Speech’ thingy.

His parents named him Piers because they thought Peter would be too obvious.

Eighty percent of the british male immigrants I have met are serious nut jobs and/or narcissists. Why do we attract their loser imports?

FO yuh elitist poofter.

You’re a jackass attention whore and I have no doubt you will continue your position out of vanity and self serving, superiority complex masking your underwhelming man bits.

Blow it out your ass.

We kicked your ass twice because we didn’t believe you were our betters and you can bet your life we helped you twice because we are better human beings of extraordinary and deep conviction in Christ’s utmost call for compassion.

Frankly, I’d actually like to kick your insufferable ass but I couldn’t bring myself to strike someone so afflicted by mental diseases such as turrets, ADD and syphilis.

Just doesn’t seem right.

They are just so more enligtened and superior than we colonials, don’cha know. The Brits have become emasculated. Pretty pathetic.

The bigger question here is why American tax dollars are being used to maintain a website with useless "petitions" that the apparatchiks in DC will use as electronic toilet paper.

The ragheads would be doing us a favor if they nuked that place while Congress was in full session, but they realize that the federal apparatchiks and the political class are more dangerous to us taxpayers outside the beltway than they could ever hope to be.

Whatever happened to “Chip-Chip Cheerio,” “Keep a stiff upper lip” and all that rot? No “typical British reserve” with this thin-skinned little twit.

Piers, not only do I want to deport you, I want to tar and feather you then put your arse on a raft in the Atlantic ocean and let the queen come pick you up if she wants to.

If you don’t like Americans guns, then go back to your country where you are a subject.

It depends on whether what he said was supported or opposed by the UK Left.

If a Yank were to advocate gun ownership for UK subjects, he would be taken off the air.

If he advocated elimination of further Muslim immigration he would be imprisoned for racism.
