I think someone or something has the dirt on Piers, and as long as Piers does their/it's bidding, he will be the chosen one, but it doesn't end well for him.

What are your thoughts on Piers Morgan? I haven't known about him as long as you probably have.

Cmon, get in the spirit! We aren't really trying to kick him out, we are just making him not want to stay.....


By making him an incredibly famous and polarising media figure? He's laughing all the way to the bank.


I admit, I watched his show every night last week. I note, at the moment, Piers is on re-run from last week...

Crappy Tabloid newspaper editor, with any degree of legitimacy well past gone in the UK, moved to the US, gets a job based on his accent and a fair degree of media savvy (he ain't an idiot), plus his connections, gets cushy job pretending to be the kind of hard hitting interviewer that the UK is ok with, but is totally uncomfortable in a US media setting, seems to have caused uproar in the US over something that the pretty much everyone in the US and the rest of the world considers common sense, but causes a petition for him to be banned from the country by Texans.

TLDR: Nobody here likes him, but the one time he says something everyone else agrees with, he gets slammed.

This is one of the stupidest things I've seen...petitioning to deport a guy for what he says about gun control? Seriously? I mean, what he says is idiotic and the way he says it is idiotic and the way he talks down (or over) people who disagree with him is idiotic; but none of that is grounds for deportation.

Scotty says it's just symbolic, but even if that is so, it's still a stupid idea. There's much better methods of showing your displeasure with him than that. And what does this have to do with Glenn Beck's treatment by the liberals you keep talking about? We're not talking about Glenn Beck here, we're talking about Piers Morgan. Cry me a river.

It's only just begun with Piers. Later in time we will be able to look back and get a better perspective. Word is the guy who started this petition is from InfoWars. And anyways, like we weren't gonna talk about the petition here?

I'm sure the NRA is doing some things most of us won't hear about also, and other things will come, but I do not expect too many sponsors to start pulling out. Conservatives don't usually do that.

#1 Piers is not a U.S. Citizen. He is on a passport
#2 It's not punishment, it's consequences. Speech is not without consequence. Ask Chic-Fil-A



oh, it's ok to ingore the principles in the constitution in order to punish a non citizen for criticizing the principles in the constitution, makes sense.

What law says you can be deported for criticising the constitution?


There isn't a law. We are going to escort him out ourselves

Not ignoring our principles. Just acknowledging that Brit's have their rights, and Americans have our rights.


The Bill of Rights isn't a guarantee by the government to protect rights, it's a restriction on the federal government from engaging in certain actions. As such, it applies equally to citizens and non-citizens. See: http://www.lewrockwell.com/browne/browne27.html

In any case, Piers is going to be out of a job in the next six months anyway and relegated back to hosting game shows in England if his ratings don't improve.


We can either let participants in the market decide (see: his ratings),

OR

we can forsake free speech rights by advocating for deportation, thus marginally bumping the state into the authoritarian realm.

that would be great, because that would show some stupid petition and all the hype it generated sent the message loud and clear, and worked much faster and much more easily then expected....

plus, I did not have to personally take away the rights of all Americans (and Brits) :lol:

lulz

Still, American anti-Morganites can find solace in the fact that, at the moment, their enemy has -- in the words of Mitt Romney -- self-deported to England for a vacation.

That will, of course, sadden the British wing of the anti-Morganites, who have their own petition demanding that he be kept in the United States, which creates the possibility that Morgan will be left floating somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean as both countries strive to have the other one take him, but we digress.

Don't get your hopes up, you enemy of freedom of speech. Piers Morgan will probably do like a T-800 and be back.

oh yeah, i forgot when somebody says something I don't like, I am supposed to stand still in front of their megaphone and suc it all in

cept for 1 thing, we aren't fully a pussy society yet. This is till a place where if you talk shit, you get dealt with. Sure, you are still free to speak, but now you know what people will say when your speech as heard, and might want to tone it down a bit.

In other words Piers, you are at a 9, we could use you at a 3. Now run along on your merry way and be a respectful guest, and don't let all the petitions from people who telling you to STFU get under your skin

:P

I'm have drawn my own, I think everybody draws their own. I just said that because it fits both realities of speech in conquer club, and speech in America. Besides, we aren't doing anything but using our own speech against Piers. These other clowns who call me an enemy of free speech or what, it's just cheapshots, as all I have done is use speech as well.
