A Piers Morgan guest is making waves on the Internet again, thanks to a segment on yesterday's show, during which Breitbart editor at large Ben Shapiro rips into Morgan for his actions in wake of the Newtown, Connecticut massacre. Shapiro accuses Morgan of "standing on the graves of the children of Sandy Hook" to demonize people who disagree with him politically.
Shapiro also brought a copy of the Constitution, which he offered to Morgan as a gift. They debate which political measures are necessary in the wake of the Sandy Hook massacre including a theoretical ban on assault weapons and better screening for mental illness.
Earlier this week, the people took notice of conspiracy theorist Alex Jones' segment on Morgan's show because Jones went off on Morgan, yelling over him about "suicide mass murder pills."
At one point, Morgan references Alex Jones and Shapiro responds with an emphatic, "Don't lump me in with Alex Jones."
During the segment, Morgan references the Constitution by calling it Shapiro's "little book."
Morgan and Shapiro also take time to discuss the left vs. right nature of the gun control issue after Morgan reads a letter penned (in part) by Ronald Reagan.
- Yeah, he's such a fool that he just sits there and lets the freak show unravel itself in front of the world. Let the crazy cult members rant and babble!
I was never really a fan, but he's gone up quite a lot in my estimation.
— carl and sons - The people who claim the government is coming after your guns are idiots...and quite frankly only idiots need automatic weapons...Professor 1982 is a moron!— dfc922
- kjuggs77 is right. Piers Morgan does not respect our Constitution, which is all we need to know about him. That should be enough for CNN to show him the door. Our Constitution is not just a "little book"... it is the foundation of the rights we live with in this country, the basis for how we govern ourselves as a land of laws not men, and the very document that our president, congress, and courts pledge to uphold. Morgan's demeaning it as a "little book" is offensive to all Americans in the extreme.
— Bud Fox - Wow. It appears angry people just sit around yelling at their keyboards all day. If you're so supportive of gun rights, then you should not be afraid of universal background checks and being required to report your weapons stolen.— Joyner80
- Piers Morgan is despicable and needs to stop...— ricciaje
- Meanwhile compassionate 1% liberal hollywood keeps churning out violent flick after violent flick for our children to watch. how bout the new sly stallone movie "Bullet to the Head". typical hollywood trash .— 420Phillie
- A pox on both their houses.— BillyBob369
- Isn't this guy a judge on Dancing with the stars or one of those shows?— dontavoidtheobvious
- The majority of the liberals like "Teddybear415" make me sick to my stomach. Rather than have an honest debate (and then actually fix something) liberals throw out radio/TV names because they are controversial. They spend the majority of their time calling people "WingNuts" and other. To Defend Piers Morgan who is just another radio hating personality like Rush is disgusting. Morgan would like to eat the bone marrow of these dead kids if it would help his ratings. He makes Nancy Grace look smart!
Try dealing in facts rather than fiction or worse you liberal slanted opinions. Fact: Gun ownership has almost doubled since 2003. Fact major crime including robbery etc has dropped by 49%. Data taken from FBI website. Fact: each day somebody in the USA stops a crime because someone was armed. The only difference is that the LIBERAL media and URBAN folks don't report or know about it. Good stories don't help there cause nor political ideals. So grap your pointed heady hat and I'll grab what you call my "tin Hat" and try to come to the party. The party is where honest debate and logical outcomes needs to be held. Unfortunately honest debate is FAUX now in the USA. Look at the President and both elected congressional leaders. Yes - Senator Reid and Boehner both suck!— SPENDSPEND - Send him home!— Chief_Negotiator
- These far right nuts are making Piers look awesome...They are falling into his trap to hang themselves. Piers is not advocating guns to be abolished. He is advocating assault rifles to be abolished and for thorough backround checks. As a conservative leaning republican, that sounds pretty reasonable!— mecp22
- The only reasonable person in that debate last night was Shapiro.— rcif2
- Sorry spendspend, I have to put up with people who listen to Rush and his like all day. For these people, common sence has gone out the window and there is no 'honest debate' to be had. I have a gun that lives up to the original 2nd amendment (ya know, 1 shot, reload etc...)for protection. I personnally beleive that you don't need semi autos, and I even live in the city!
Signed - Very informed voter who voted for the lessor of two evils! (and won again)— teddybear415 - This idiot should be air-lifted over England and booted out when about 30,000 ft. Anybody that degrades the US Constitution should be deported. Go back to your "fish and chips" if you don't like it.— dogman5
- Actually, all of these morons have played right into his hands. He sits there stonefaced and just lets them show the world how truly crazy these idiots are. Every single gun lover who has appeared on his show has been exposedfor exactly what they are - mental.— cruisinalong
