"CNN's Piers Morgan tweeted that the First Amendment "shouldn't protect vile bigots" like Phil Robertson"

Well Mr. Morgan, if religious discrimination is OK then what makes any other form of discrimination wrong?

I love it when liberals like the alien Morgan pick and choose who should enjoy the protection of the Bill of Rights.

Does anyone know Piers Morgan’s response to Martin Bashir ?

Ah, some speech is more equal than other speech?

Piers, you are showing yourself to be either laughably ignorant, ruled by emotion, and incapable of reason... Or you are a truly evil person who longs for control over your fellow man.

"He's a victim of his own repulsively racist, homophobic bigotry."

Phil was just quoting scripture. Is Pierce really calling God a repulsively racist, homophobic bigot? We all meet our Maker one day, Pierce. Not a good idea to meet Him with that title on your lips.

I had no idea who Jeremy Clarkson was or what he did until you posted that. I have never sent out Christmas cards. For him, I might make an exception.

Pierced Organ says whatever he’s told to say.

Keep running your mouth, Qiers, and an army won’t be enough to protect you.

Phil Robertson has ten times the following you have.

You’re right, partially.
This is in fact the deliberate attempt by the Left to create a Brownshirt thugocracy.
This is willful incitement and abuse of power by numerous government officials at all levels.
In some cases by direct incitement and others by unconstitutionally structuring legal code to support aberrant behavior in an ongoing effort at social engineering.
If Mr. Soetoro is stupid enough to comment on this, no matter what he says, I’m sure a good lawyer could make a valid case to his direct involvement, albeit after the fact.
As far as A & E’s rights, they should be regarded as a ‘special needs’ individual and have adult supervision assigned.
They may have some sort of Morals clause or something in Robertson’s contract, but to expect other than him expressing his sincere view when asked is stupid.
Sure they have a right to decide how they will be represented by contractors and who they will do business with. So do ALL businesses.
If I have a private business, the government has no right to force me to do business with ANYONE. And if I discriminate then the marketplace will show whether that is correct or not.
Historically, homosexual is classified as DEVIANCY, right along with pederasty, bestiality, and necrophilia.
To force anyone to accept it against their beliefs IS a violation of their rights. IF the government does not then protect that individual, it IS a 1st Amendment issue.

Good luck with any argument based on ANY negative proposition concerning homosexuality.

Wait...was anyone accusing Robertson of making racist statements, or is Morgan just throwing that into the pile?

I agree with Piers Morgan. “Vile bigots” like Piers Morgan need to be deported to North Korea. There, Kim Jong-un will recognize his obvious talents.

The left needs a taste of their own medicine if they try to ban free speech. A good start would be deporting this liberal twit back to the police state he came from.

Why is this Morgan still here? Is he even an American citizen? If not, he needs to STFU about our rights and go back to where he came from!
