Alex Jones loses it on Piers Morgan: '1776 will commence again if you try to take our firearms'

Controversial talk show host and noted conspiracy theorist Alex Jones got a little, er, animated during his interview(?) with Piers Morgan. Jones is one of the firearm advocates behind the White House petition to have Morgan deported for attacking the second amendment. Regardless of your stance on gun control, it's worth a watch, if only to see Jones freak out and challenge Morgan to a fight before sarcastically answering a question with, "How many chimpanzees can dance on the head of a pin?" He also offers up gems like:
"1776 will commence again if you try to take our firearms."
"The number one cause of death is suicide, now, because they give people suicide mass murder pills!"
"[Britain's] got hordes of people burning cities and beating old women's brains out every day."
"America was born on guns and whiskey."
"How many great white sharks eat people? But, they're still afraid to swim."
UPDATE: Alex Jones has posted his personal account of what happened behind the scenes at CNN. He says he made one of the producers cry and was told to leave even though he'd been promised a third segment. He says that undercover cops were following him and that a "big, mean Bloomberg" detective got in his face. According to Jones, the undercover cops looked like they were from Goodfellas.
Jones is the perfect spokesperson for the cause of the white-guy-as-victim crowd known as the tea party.— bobcitydoc- Alex Jones is an idiot. He's a stereotype. As an American, I find it embarrassing how he bullied Morgan during the entire episode. He's a fat blow hard. Just because he's loud doesn't make him right. Morgan didn't say to take all guns away. He said military style. The fat pig wants to set up a boxing ring? Morgan is trying to talk to him and he just keeps yelling at him instead of discussions. Typical gun freak.— PotteryPete
- You ain't gonna find common ground in this issue. They can't do it on the budget, religion or sports. Guns? Never gonna happen. Too many nuts on both sides.— BillyBob369
- Alex Jones made excellent points, but when you appear crazy, it's not really helping the cause.— warrentheape
- Philadelphians are very scary in their response to the reasonable argument given by Piers Morgan.
These gun enthusiasts are crazy!— Lisa Dougherty - Alex 1 Morgan 0— DaIBelieveU
- This guy is a maniac. Sad that people would listen to this community college student from Texas.— Dicky Dunn
- Why do I get the feeling that the vast majority of these gun hugging facist are really trying to compensate for a shortcoming somewhere else. Kind of like a bunch of two year-olds who just discovered their weenies and run around the house waving it for all to see. Only problem is, they keep doing it even as they reach the age where it's not only not funny anymore it's down right pathetic.— JLH
Overlooking the massive number of gun accidents (if not crimes), GOP Repubicans always point to the extremes of revolution.— Cuddles- Daxtremesolja,
He belives that 9/11 was an inside job, the same as Obama adminstration officil Van Jones believed it was an inside job. Many Libs during the Bush years said the same thing. I'm not saying that I agree that it was an inside job but that buliding 7 coming down hours after the two towers fell does look suspicious.— Phishface - That guy is a KOOK!!!! Oh yes, line up behind him, he's a GREAT representative. What a NUT!!— msmame
- Hey "Cuddles" did you see what this gun nut extremist did? She actully had the nerve to save the life her twins and herself with a gun from some home invader. How dare she, doesn't she know guns are dangerous and that she supposed to roll over and die or just report it to the police after she recovers in the hospital. If shes luckey enough to survive:

Guns don't kill people, people kill people 2. Prescription drugs are a lot more hazardous to society than guns 3. The government wants to take away our 2nd amendment rights in order to gain more control over the population 4. Piers is a part of the elite establishment and is not a citizen of the US and, as such, should not be able to have a say in the US's 2nd amendment 5. The US government, various other governments and Mega Banks have been caught red handed and paid billions in settlement to sweep their crimes under the rug that they have lost total credibility with informed citizens who are not brainwashed by main stream media...— LaheemTheLadiesDream
- So Laheem, a legal resident alien such as Morgan does not have the same rights afforded by the First Amendment? Wrong answer, thank you for playing though. More of the "Second Amendment trumps the First" nonsense. — TheLowDown
- In peirs' country they are so much more advanced than we are. First they banned guns. Now they are looking to ban knives. You just cannot make this stuff up. My bet is that baseball(or whatever those things are that those cricket players use) bats and tree branchs are next:
