Subject: 61,000 US citisens call for Piers Morgan Deportation

More than 61,000 signed a petition to get the TV host deported for the comments on his CNN talk show.

Morgan, 47, angered pro-gun activists by calling for assault weapons to be banned in the wake of the Connecticut school shootings which killed 26.


Well this is amusing, Brits wanted him gone because he is an idiot and the yanks want him gone because we supports the assault weapon ban.

Good to know the Americans are all for Free Speech but are willing to take away the guys rights because they don't agree with him.

Hypocrites huh?

The average citizen doesn't care about free speech that goes against their opinion. It's basic human behavior which should be expected. Also, he clearly doesn't care much for our general opinions, so why not deport him? It's not like we lose anything of value.
People have opinions, unless its a harmful opinion he should not be deported.

I don't like certain people in this country (Scousers and Hillsborough supporters) but I am not calling for them all to be deported.

If you have some free time and don't mind, please check out my Youtube channel, and maybe subscribe? I'd appreciate it.

"He's trying to take away our guns? Quickly! Take away his rights to have an opinion and his freedom of speech!"

I hope the guy doesn't end up being fired for this.

<(-_-)> Teh mokey is not amused

If they demand the deportation of this guy, why don't they just deport everyone against the current gun laws?

Do not invite me to your private group. I will not join.

Although I do agree that freedom of speech does protect this guy. However the constitutions protection of "Freedom of Speech" isn't just any speech but freedom of reasonable and responsible speech.

Morgan sits in a seat of the media and helps push an image between right and wrong on modern day masses. Its a responsibility that is often abused by many in this country. Morgan was pushing against the constitutions arguably most important part, our protected freedoms. Many people hold these freedoms close to themselves very dearly and certainly don't want any of them to be jeopardize by a man in such a powerful position with an opinion.

Are they overreacting? Yes

I think the better option would be for him to just not be allowed to continue the discussion of live television. Unless its in a multi sided debate with multiple individuals. You can have your opinion but some times there is a time and place for it.

/quote]So if supporting the ban is against the constitution then the government is against the constitution also along with every other supporter.

Which would technically be grounds for ousting the government, but the law was put in place in 2004 so clearly that's constitutional.

So free speech does protect him because his opinion is valid, shared by many and responsible after all lots of celebrities have called for action.

So long as he doesn't come back here, I'm okay with this.

I already said that his words are protected. In my first paragraph my friend.

And sure celebrities are calling for action. Their celebrities, its what they do. I'm not saying his opinion isn't valid. I'm saying his opinion is a little strong for a person in such a influential position and he himself needs to recognize that.

I find this hilarious that they want to deport a show host on CNN for having an opinion.

If we follow this logic, all of the Fox News staff should be deported as well.

  • 12.26.2012 5:26 AM PDT

This is a truly terrible signature.

I hate Piers Morgan, however this is just stupid.

That petition was not made in the hopes of him seriously being deported, it was made to show that a large number of people disagree with his idiotic viewpoints and that he should not be allowed to discuss the subject, let alone be a part of our already biased and corrupt media.


I agree with some of the major points of this.

Piers Morgan is generally hated, it's not because of any one thing he said.

idiotic viewpoint


As much as I hate Piers, I dont see how an assault rifle ban is idiotic in the slightest.

Recon Number 54 -
If they are still looking, then while holding the snarl, I let drool start to drip from my mouth, I stand, curl my fingers into claws and with a hunched over crouch, I then make slow and deliberate steps towards them. When I get close enough, I let them hear my agonized and gasping growls and then, if they continue to stare, when I get within arm's reach? I kiss them on the nose, and run away giggling.

But... but... we don't want him back.
