Piers Morgan Outrageously Compares U.S. Gun Culture With 'Racist Culture' of the '60s


Jackass.



Via Newsbusters:
On his Thursday show, CNN’s Piers Morgan compared the NRA’s Wayne LaPierre to conspiracy theorist Alex Jones and drew parallels between the current gun debate and the civil rights and drunk driving debates of decades ago.


When guest Margaret Hoover described America’s “gun culture,” Morgan interjected, “There was a racist culture, there was a drunk-driving culture.” Even liberal Marc Lamont Hill was taken aback. “A Southern gun owner is not like a Klan member. I mean, come on,” he admonished Morgan, who claimed “I’m not saying they are.”

Man Mistakes Real Gun For BB Pistol, Shoots Friend In Buttocks Area

LOTHIAN, Md. (WJZ)—Prank gone wrong. A Virginia man is charged with second-degree assault and reckless endangerment after police say he shot a man in lower torso with what he believed was a BB gun.

It happened just before 4 a.m. Wednesday in a home in 1300 block of Burton River Road in Lothian, Anne Arundel County.

The victim, a 21-year-old male from Edgewater, was asleep when 22-year-old Patrick Stapleton, of Ashland, Va., attempted to pull a prank.

Police say Stapleton grabbed a .40 caliber handgun, which he believed was a BB gun, and fired one round at the victim while he slept, striking him in the buttocks area.

The handgun is legally owned by the homeowner’s son, who was not determined to be involved in the shooting.

The actual homeowner was not present during the incident.

The victim remains at Prince George’s Hospital Center, where he is being treated for non-life threatening injuries.

The investigation is ongoing.

And here's the Nobel nominee who couldn't tell a .40 cal from a BB gun.

I don't know for sure, but everything says American in this case. Canadians and Americans are often very different in the way they post. Americans are really intense about things. I call it Corn Cob Up The Rectum Syndrome.

Do you really think so? I've only travelled in the Western U.S. but I'd say the ones I've met are to the contrary..........easy going, friendly and helpful. I don't recall having a bad encounter with an American during the several dozen visits I've made there.

So no one caught it? The article talks about "12 more rounds in the chamber"
That's nothing. I've mentioned before to RetiredCanSoldier that the Washington Post, which likes to think of itself as the nation's flagship newspaper, has within my memory. . .

1. Published an article about a kid bringing a gun to school that identified the weapon both as a "semi-automatic handgun" and his police officer father's "service revolver."

2. Never, EVER used the word "rifle" without the modifier "high-powered," even when they're talking about a li'l ol' .223.

3. Once published, on the front page, a statement that the victim of a shooting was hit by "a fuselage of bullets."

Yup, a "fuselage."

In another thread you're calling me Canadian. Covering all the bases?
I'm only human. I should have known immediately that you're just a yankee. Why else would you use the name of the Panther in the Sky as your forum moniker. Are you familiar with his story? The complete story? If you are a graduate of the American public school system then the answer is probably no.

You can tell I'm an American because a Canadian would not be as sharp tongued with you. Canadians are polite people as a rule.

Do you really think so? I've only travelled in the Western U.S. but I'd say the ones I've met are to the contrary..........easy going, friendly and helpful. I don't recall having a bad encounter with an American during the several dozen visits I've made there.
He has admitted he is an American. Most Americans are very uptight. If an American is a member of the dependent class he or she is uptight about his or her dependence and lack of human autonomy.

If an American is a member of the productive class he or she is uptight about the transformation of America into an authoritarian country after 2001.

In either event people in NEW AMERIKA really shouldn't call themselves Americans because they are not the successors of the Old Americans. It's like Byzantine Greeks calling themselves Noble Romans.
