Deport me? If America won't change its crazy gun laws... I may deport myself says PIERS MORGAN
Mail Online ^ | 29 December 2012 | Piers Morgan

Posted on 12/29/2012 7:47:22 PM PST by Boiler Plate

Although I love the country as a second home and one that has treated me incredibly well, I would, as a concerned parent first – and latterly, of a one-year-old daughter who may attend an American elementary school like Sandy Hook in three years’ time – seriously consider deporting myself.

I've often wondered about that. I used to love watching those British home shows where people would remodel a room or a garden for their friends. I would always be fascinated at how cheap, dilapidated, odd, or improperly made so many of their rooms or gardens looked. And it was so crazy how happy the homeowners would be with makeovers that were done with such low quality materials and workmanship that even the poorest American's would have complained.

Just as an example, I once watched a show where they attempted to glue a flimsy paper imitation bead board paneling over a water damaged ceiling. Of course because the ceiling was damaged, everywhere the plaster came loose the bead-board sagged. It was a lumpy mess! But the home owners looked sincerely pleased to have the holes covered. I can't imagine an American homeowner not being seriously PO'd if someone left their home like that! Even if it was free.

Having done your trip in the opposite direction, I can concur with what you have written there.

Oh! I almost forgot about the show where they ripped up brown paper bags and glued them to a plywood sub-floor and then poly’d over it! That one was awesomely bad. Tell me a nice American woman would be thrilled about that in her dining room!

Piers Morgan: How about South Georgia.
Still technically part of the UK, but far enough away to dilute your odour.

He is either a tyrant or a useful idiot. We have no use for either. GTFO Piers.

I do not know his immigration status and I don’t know much about immigration law in general. However, I would think that there is some requirement for guests to our country being required to adhere to our laws and to support the US Constitution. His open disdain for the US Constitution should require rejection of his immigration status, which should lead to deportation.

But I’m no gov’t drone, so who knows....

We never worried about it in the first place. You sir are irrelevant.

Public school, my butt. She, no doubt, will attend the same type of school the obamaseins send their children—well armed even without the presidents kids being there.

This Piers guy is an idiot, but clever idiot. Now CNN has to keep him on for another couple of years to make it look like they are not giving in to gun owners. He bought himself a little extra “job security”, I think.

Sounds like he is trying to find a graceful exit for a failed TV show.

All of these liberals threaten to leave if this happens or if that doesn't happen, but everyone one of them is still here raking in the bucks. Baldwin said he was going to leave if Bush got elected, Harrelson whined about something else, Rosie O'donnell about gun control. For crying out loud shut up and leave.

Quote from article:

The only apparent reason anyone seems to offer up is that using such weapons is ‘fun’. One gun-rights guy I interviewed last week even said admiringly that the AR-15 was ‘the Ferrari of guns’. Well, I’m sorry, but ‘fun’ is just not a good enough excuse any more. Not when children are being killed by gunfire all over America.
Well...using his criteria.....we need to outlaw pools and swimming because almost twice as many children die from that activity than do deaths by firearms as shown below from the CDC:

2007, United States
Drowning Deaths and Rates per 100,000
 
 
Age Group Number of
Deaths
Population Crude
Rate
00-04 548 20,125,962 2.72
05-09 128 19,714,611 0.65
10-14 105 20,841,042 0.50
Total 781 60,681,615 1.29

As opposed to:

2007, United States
Firearm Deaths and Rates per 100,000
 
 
Age Group Number of
Deaths

Rate
00-04 85 20,125,962 0.42

Same here. If it wasn't for FR, people like bill mayer, prissy chrissy matthews, ed schultz and others would be unknowns.

Yep, she'll be so much better off in one of England's muslim schools. I bet you are looking forward to shopping for her first burka.

“...because we drive on the Right side of the Street rather than the Left side.”

In England, I don’t watch when my son turns a corner because it makes me almost dizzy. My brain is putting the car on the right side of the road and he’s on the left side turning into the left lane to turn a corner.

I don’t know how he does it. I pick him up at the airport here and he drives the car home on the exact opposite side than when he just left England driving on the left side. He has never made a mistake changing immediately from driving on the left side of the road to the right side.

Morgan is so concerned about protecting America against gun killing. He does not report on the slaughter ongoing in Mexico, where guns are banned, nor does he report on Obama arming the cartels to aid in that slaughter. He does not report on Obama permitting cartels to set up shop in the US and Obama leaving the borders wide open for criminals of the world to enter the US via Mexico.

He’s a wacko. He needs to go back to Britian where his stunted world view is protected by speech restrictions. I hope he lives in an area where the Muslims get to rape the infidel children without politically incorrect police and parental interference.

He took the job at CNN because he got fired from the
BBC for pushing Muslim war propaganda against the US and Britian. He didn’t come here because he loves America. He’s a leftist mental case. He mistakes himself for royality.
