By the way Morgan does seem to have a problem violating privacy rights as well with his cell phone hacking jobs.

Hmmmm maybe listening to someone asking for truths and freedoms to be considered is not such a bad thing as people like to make nut cases out to be.
After all history is full of nutcases who later proved to be right.
Almost all nut cases are later proved to be just nut cases.

Yeah, pretty soon any form of Anger will be banned or controlled. You can't get angry anymore without someone calling you a nutjob. People see 2 guys arguing loudly in the parking lot of a store and think it's nuts these days. People could care less about what the anger is about and even lesser about the 2 guys actually being brothers. Instead, we have people assuming that an anger response should not be allowed even though they have no idea what's going on.

Man is that Piers Morgan guy ever dumb...wow

1) USA has over 3 Hundred million people/ England has 50 million people

2) USA has over 4 million square miles/ England has 50 thousand square miles.

Regardless, to think that a plan and a result, can be compared or used for two highly contrasting demographics in human population and area is pretty slow, esp when the individual states show so many tones and textures in their own demographics and stats.

The other example he keeps wanting to talk about is the last tragedy and others. Well....50-England represents 15% of the 325-USA Poulation.....so bring along 70% greater years in order to properly estimate/ not counting the greater the number in population which can do nothing but add, so this whole comparing thing is ridiculous. The demo differences entirely change quantity and risk issues as well, including any anti gun approach. If they were half serious the games-media-movies-records would be the first on the chopping block.

Population of USA is 6 times that of England.
But deaths in England due to guns was 35 while in USA it was 11000. that is 300 times.

It also doesn't account for the fact that 75% of those deaths were young black males killing other young black males in inner city violence.

People using the Newtown massacre as justification for grabbing guns have obviously been ignoring the black on black violence that has persisted for so long. Look at Chicago....

There are lot of young black males in England. Why are they not killing each other??? Becoz they have strict gun control. By that logic gun control will reduce that black male-black male killing in USA also. So thats a good thing. or People just dont care about that 75% black male killing??

Is that a real percentage or one you made up to beef up your post?

Why is Second Amendment not protecting those young black males??? or Guns only protect you from tyranny of the government but do nothing to protect against criminals???

It already is outlawed. Disturbing the peace or public nuisance anyone? Totally subjective and up to how the cop that shows up is feeling that day.

As for the interview? As it was said before, Alex Jones was put on the air with the hopes he'd go ballistic so as to paint everyone who disagrees with the perfectly calm,cool and collected Morgan has to be in the same camp as A.J..
Yeah it's only one guy, but many people who watch TV like this take what's said as fact and come away thinking "I just KNEW they were all nuts".
