Piers Morgan's Extremely Eloquent Final Comments on Gun Control

The Erin Burnett Interview with Ted Nugent

My favorite part is when he personally took credit for getting Piers Morgan's Show cancelled.

On another thread I made the remark that you gun-rights fanatics get all personal about it while we tend to attack what our opponents say. I was asked if I don't personally despise Ted Nugent.

Well, that got me to thinking. I suppose I do.  He's a draft dodger, an admitted statutory rapist of young girls, he often uses racist and misogynistic slurs, he's a blowhard and a bully. For those reasons and more, many folks on my side despise Ted Nugent, myself included.

You guys, on the other hand, despise Piers Morgan for nothing more than his stance on gun control.

Do you see the difference?

Gun Control Advocate Piers Morgan's Show is Ending

Politix

CNN host Piers Morgan, the British host who has often lectured his American audience about the need for stricter gun control, is losing his 9 p.m. weeknights show.

New York Times media writer David Carr scoops that Morgan and CNN President Jeff Zucker "had been talking about the show's failure to connect and had decided to pull the plug, probably in March." Carr writes:

'It's been a painful period and lately we have taken a bath in the ratings,' [Morgan] said, adding that although there had been times when the show connected in terms of audience, slow news days were problematic.

'Look, I am a British guy debating American cultural issues, including guns, which has been very polarizing, and there is no doubt that there are many in the audience who are tired of me banging on about it,' he said. 'That's run its course and Jeff and I have been talking for some time about different ways of using me.'

Piers Morgan on the Navy Yard Shooting

Ricky Gervais says "Don't let Piers Morgan buy a gun."

Do Gun Control Folks Want another Mass Shooting?

But gun rights advocates are holding their breath willing it NOT to happen. They’re upping and maintaining their situational awareness to PREVENT another atrocity. They’re tooled-up to STOP a spree killing (as best they can). CNN commentator Morgan and his gun grabbing sympathizers, on the other hand, are gleefully (sanctimoniously in this case) anticipating a horrific, bloody “gotcha” moment. Watch the end of this video. Could it be any clearer who owns the moral high ground?  

It's not clear to me at all.  In fact, not only did I fail to hear Piers Morgan "gleefully anticipating a horrific, bloody "gotcha" moment," I felt the smug and sarcastic pro-gun Senator ceded the moral high ground to Piers.

White House press secretary Jay Carney was diplomatic in the official response to the petition to deport Piers Morgan, but he was firm: No, the Obama administration is not going to move to deport somebody because he's in favor of gun control, even if 109,334 people want that to happen.
