A year from now he may look back on this as the thing that saved him. Piers gets to keep his posh dressing room, dinners at MEGU and chauffeured Town Cars instead of getting thrown back into the dustbin of British state TV celebrity in which he'd share a communal changing room with the cast of Cuckoo and perks include things like a complimentary tube pass and the occasional black pudding baked by the producer's mother.
I admit I watched his show everyday last week. That's why deportation is the back-up plansaxitoxin wrote:This petition seems to be all over the headlines. This will likely give Piers the boost in publicity needed to salvage him from his current state of obscurity and imminent cancellation.

Now we're talkin!!! Careful though, if all the trilobites are nippin at my heels over deportation, they are really going to lose it over the "nuke him" optionwhydelilah wrote:PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, if your an American and reading this then think twice before signing this petition....Not because i agree or disagree with your principles or views just that i (and i am SURE i speak for the very vast majority of British folk) would not wish to have that slimy uninteresting talentless moron back on our shore's. For the sake of all humanity please exile the pillock to some island nation where atom bombs are tested on a regular basis. Jeremy Clarkson's best day of work ever was the one he smacked Piers in the mouth, just a shame he stopped there

About the petition, it's just to pressure the white house into a statement.you seem so much more reaonable now

Nice to see PS does not speak for all Americans..or Australians..Iliad wrote:Just well done Scotty. This move is for Liberty and Freedom and good old American Values.
I see, so according to you the FIRST Amendment just is not as important as the second? And people are not allowed to voice an opinion?Phatscotty wrote:Don't let the door hit your ass on the way out PiersA new online White House petition is calling for CNN’s Piers Morgan to be deported for “attacking the Second Amendment” following the Connecticut elementary school massacre.
“British Citizen and CNN television host Piers Morgan is engaged in a hostile attack against the U.S. Constitution by targeting the Second Amendment,” the petition states. “We demand that Mr. Morgan be deported immediately for his effort to undermine the Bill of Rights and for exploiting his position as a national network television host to stage attacks against the rights of American citizens.”

Your clarification that freedom only applies to citizens does nothing to improve your case, sorry.Phatscotty wrote:You are aware Piers Morgan is not an American, right?Iliad wrote:Just well done Scotty. This move is for Liberty and Freedom and good old American Values.
Piers is trying to take away our Liberty and our Freedom, our good old American values. It's pretty clear Piers does not care about American values, so it's weird of you to try to extend them to him.
Brilliant logic. As everyone knows America was founded on the principle that dissent and criticism of the constitution should not be tolerated lest it unsettle the good old American values. As well as the notion that immigrants are 2nd class citizens who shouldn't attempt to contribute to helping the country prosper or develop.Phatscotty wrote:You are aware Piers Morgan is not an American, right?Iliad wrote:Just well done Scotty.

Nice observation there.....that my goal should somehow be to uphold our rights to a non-American who is trying to take away American's rights. And it doesn't matter whether Piers is protected by our rights or not, we are going to make it uncomfortable for him, using our own rights of speech (exactly what this thread is about), kind of the same way the gays did a kiss-in at Chik-Fil-A (effectively uncomfortable)Iliad wrote:Just well done Scotty.

You see it as criticizing our culture, I see it as a direct attack on the second amendment. The government isn't going to do anything...We The People are. This petition to the government to humorously "deport" Piers Morgan is an attention getter, and yes we are using the media to fire the first shot across the bow. This is just one of many different attacks Morgan is going to suffer...Like I said earlier, Piers Morgan is about to be Glenn Beck'd, but where the Left failed to destroy Glenn Beck, America will succeed in making Piers unwelcome to attack us and our rightsBaron Von PWN wrote:Lol wut? You've gone even further off the deep end than usual scotty. You are straight up demanding the government punish someone for holding an opinion you don't like.

Apparently its ok for the government to punish you for holding unpopular opinions, but it's not ok for the government to restrict access to firearms. You can't say what's on your mind but don't worry you can have as many guns as you want. In this way your liberty will be maximized, so long as you shut up.
So what if it's a direct attack on the second amendment? Why would this be grounds for deportation? Deporting this guy for attacking the second amendment would be flagrantly ignoring the document you allegedly seek to protect.Phatscotty wrote:You see it as criticizing our culture, I see it as a direct attack on the second amendment.

He thinks the second amendment is dumb, and against the USA's best interest and actively expounds his views. So what? Is political debate dangerous to america's well being? Why turn to government coercion rather than using your first amendment to argue with them? What is warranting the demand for deportation. What is this man's crime? aside from speaking his mind of course.
And so what if it is a direct attack on the second amendment? If that is your attitude, what are you so worried about with me, whether you understand me to just be using the first amendment, or as others suggest I am directly attacking British citizen Piers Morgan's first amendment rights?This petition to the government to humorously "deport" Piers Morgan is an attention getter, and yes we are using the media to fire the first shot across the bow.

Oh so you are only jokingly petitioning your government to tyranically silence this man. So much better. So what other attacks will he suffer for speaking his mind? Tar and feathering? Lynch mob? Key his car? death threats? harassment?Phatscotty wrote:my edit didn't make it in time....but here it isBaron Von PWN wrote:So what if it's a direct attack on the second amendment?
