Petition to Deport Piers Morgan Gains Internet Fame
ABC News ^ | 12/24/12 | Sarah Parnass

Posted on 12/24/2012 2:07:23 PM PST by jimbo123

A petition asking President Obama to deport CNN anchor Piers Morgan gathered more than 33,000 signatures in just three days.

The petition on the White House’s “We the People” website posted Friday has crossed the 25,000 threshold needed to solicit a response from President Obama. But unlike the petitions to reduce gun violence that Obama addressed last week, this one isn’t likely to receive a favorable response.

The petition takes aim at Morgan for his impassioned defense of proposed gun control legislation on air this week. It accuses him of launching “a hostile attack against the U.S. Constitution by targeting the Second Amendment.”

But according to immigration attorney Mark Schifanelli, it would take more than expressing an opinion on television to get Morgan booted out of the country. The Department of Homeland Security would have the power to start a deportation process on Morgan if it was warranted, Schifanelli said, but even then, there’s no guarantee Morgan wouldn’t win the right to stay in an appeals process.

“He’s got certain rights,” Schifanelli told ABC News Monday. “Even as a foreign national in the United States, he’s afforded various rights under national security law and due process.”

How about we settle for a good, old-fashioned public horse whipping?

The pervert/queer/faggot might actually like that.

"How do you like that pervert"?

"Oh, very muich thir. May I have another"?

At least we would get to find out if that clipped limey accent is for real.
