In Final Farewell Piers Morgan Calls For Total Gun Ban
NRA - ILA ^ | Posted on April 4, 2014 | NRA / ILA

After months of ranting and raving about “universal” checks, bans on semi-automatic rifles, and bans on standard-capacity ammunition magazines designed for defensive purposes, Piers Morgan ended his last TV show last Saturday by advocating an end to civilian ownership of all firearms. Lecturing Americans one last time, Morgan said “guns belong on a military battlefield. . . . Not in the hands of civilians.”

We can at least credit Morgan for his belated honesty. Over the last year or so, Morgan rubbed us the wrong way, as he did millions of TV viewers. He talked when he should have listened. He disrespected his show’s guests. He repetitively engaged in self-righteous (and self-indulgent) monologues, while cutting off others. He repeatedly went out of his way to show that he didn’t care what we thought about his personal behavior, his extreme views on guns, and his mistaken belief that Americans would base their political decisions on his own English sensibilities. That hasn’t been a winning formula since at least 1776.

....

In the end, however, at least Morgan came clean about where he would like the debate over gun control to end. Other gun control advocates are not nearly so candid. Take the Brady Campaign. It began in 1974 as the National Council to Control Handguns and openly admitted that it wanted handguns to be registered, and then their private ownership banned. Yet today it pretends that registration and its potential use in enforcing a firearm ban has nothing to do with the group’s support for a "universal" checks law.

He doesn’t understand why he is out of a job in the first place. The goofy bastard doesn’t understand that his big mouth lost him his job. How can he be so dumb?

General George Washington would’ve shot that Tory SOB, Piers Morgan, dead.

Nothing else needs to be said other than Piers needs to get his ass out of America before the bullets start flying.
