I am not sure that I could take a life but if I was responsible for a roomful of defenseless 6 year olds I think I could shoot at someone like Lanz if I had something to do it with before I tried to get between him and them knowing I would be shot and then the kids. I really do believe I could do it but not in a Gun Free Zone. I couldn't have a gun.

Oh wait, I forgot this is backwards world. Why did conservatives lose the election again? Hmmmm.....
You mean you consider calling someone an idiot and other names and just acting like a child in a playground argument to be "destroying" someone in a debate or conversation? Really? Says a lot about what your standards are. Of course I don't think that you believe this, after all, your just trying to get a knee-jerk reaction from one of us gun owners.

Well on the bright side, now we know how to automatically win a debate. No facts required.

DUMB ASS

See?

Morgan was already made a fool on tweeter may as well do it live.

Morgan: “Quite incredible that Bob Costas makes an impassioned plea for less handguns, and Americans go crazy with indignation. He’s 100% right.”


Morgan: “The 2nd amendment was devised with muskets in mind, not high-powered handguns & assault rifles. Fact.”


Roth: “@piersmorgan It was devised 4 people 2b able 2 protect themselves w same type of weaponry used by those from whom they might need protection.”


Morgan: “@caroljsroth Where exactly does it say that in the Constitution – must have missed it?”


Roth: “@piersmorgan right next to the word ‘muskets.’”

Another good reason I don't tune that channel in anymore.

Too early on Morgan says, "You're an unbelievably stupid man, aren't you". Just like any other leaner Morgan says you are stupid if you disagree with him.

Morgan give "jackass" a bad name.

That, however, is what CNN and the left have been reduced to.

Pratt avoided the questions and went right into the standard pro-gun chant about everyone needs to be armed. Piers was frustrated by this and called him an idiot, which I think was appropriate.

If the pro-gun people are going to use the standard response of "arm everyone, because who wants to be the victim" then they will lose badly.

The fact remains that if you take guns away, the death by firearm rate goes down... notice he totally side-stepped that fact.

Morgan, having no rational response, can only say "You're an unbelievably stupid man, aren't you?" Classic lefty troll--can't address a point, so fall back on 5th grade name-calling.

I honestly thought that the irrational impulse of giving up the ability to self-defend had been quashed. No critter is dumb enough to give up its' claws and teeth. I should have known better. It was in remission, but never gone.
The Left claims to be tolerable, but they attack others who have different opposing views.

Morgan is another perfect example of modern liberalism. What Larry said was absolute GOLD.

For the money he makes, as an interviewer Morgan is an incompetent and should resign if not fired.
