At 9:30 a.m. on December 19th, CNN's Piers Morgan tweeted that the First Amendment "shouldn't protect vile bigots" like Phil Robertson.
And while making this claim, Morgan also reiterated his position that the Second Amendment "shouldn't protect assault rifle devotees."
Twitchy.com posted Morgan's tweet, as well as one he sent six minutes earlier in he which typed, "Phil Robertson is not a 'victim of political correctness.' He's a victim of his own repulsively racist, homophobic bigotry."
When defenders of Robertson's right to speak his mind took to Twitter to tell Morgan how the First Amendment works, Morgan hedged himself in by tweeting, "Calm down everybody. I'm merely exercising my own 1st Amendment freedom of speech rights to say Phil Robertson's a racist bigot."

this is the level of punitive PC, utterly fascist, utterly Stalinist, OK, that my liberal colleagues in the Democratic Party and on college campuses have supported and promoted over the last several decades. This is the whole legacy of free speech 1960s that have been lost by my own party. |
Why does this Limey pillow biter keep trying to tell Americans what our Bill of Rights should and should not protect?
What the left says no longer surprises me, I just can not believe how shallow this man’s thinking is.
If what he wants were to happen (restriction on speech you do not like) at some point when the wheel turns, his right to free speech will be restricted.
Piers should be looking behind him often, as the wheel is turning and the American people are getting fed up with the tyranny of the minorities.
“I didn’t say what I said”
Said every lefty ever called out on their statements, ever.
Citizens of the USSR are guaranteed freedom of conscience, that is, the right to profess or not to profess any religion, and to conduct religious worship or atheistic propaganda. Incitement of hostility or hatred on religious grounds is prohibited.Take note that there is no prohibition for incitement of hatred or hostility on atheistic grounds or any other non-religious grounds. Also, the freedom to preach atheistic propaganda is given precedence over religious preaching (and only religious worship without preaching to any unconverted is not mentioned as allowed).
In the USSR, the church is separated from the state, and the school from the church.

Right back atcha, idiot Piers.
So, anyone who believes in the Bible is a vile, racist bigot.
Got it.
I don’t understand why the sunufabitch doesn’t just go back to England.
Actually, I don’t understand why he came here in the first place.
However what I DO understand is why Jeremy Clarkson punched this twerp in the face.
Nothing more than a moron with a good vocabulary.
What else can one expect from a pathetic Commie twerp on the Communist News Network?
They are overplaying their hand now, and true Americans now see them for what they are....filthy Marxist/Leninist, along with their dear leader.
Go home, Piers, to that place whence you came, where your upper middle class British accent isn’t confused for refinement, where there is no first amendment, nor second amendment, to blame for British gun crime, nor ethnic problems, nor sexual immorality, where Jeremy Clarkson awaits with another fist for your sore head, where your phone-hacking is known and reviled. Go home, Piers.
To Piers,
Thanks Englishman — go back to little Arabia - the true colonials here don’t want nor care for you!

Well there's your answer: he's scared Clarkson will beat him up again.
Morgan was born in the English town of Dorking.
Somehow, that seems appropriate.
Projection. Robertson never espoused hatred of gays.
Hey where is the outrage from alcoholics and promiscuous people since Robertson linked their behavior to being a ????
oops! The last word is sin!
FU piers... I swear son you had better hope that we never come face to face. I will not be polite and hospitable like Uncle Ted was with your fat foreign alien ass. GTFO of my Republic... you have head chopping demons of mo to defend in your own country. Go back and help evil to destroy your once great country and leave mine alone!
