I know I’ve already written a post for today … I know this is an interview with Piers Morgan, a man whose ego and pompousness knows no bounds, but this interview with a myopic gun fan is utterly depressing.
I hate how they go on and on and on about the 2nd amendment because I’m pretty sure their attitude towards assault weapon ownership has more to do with wanting to feel powerful, dangerous and feared than anything to do with the 2nd amendment.
Besides, the 2nd amendment has a bunch of other things in it that people have happily ignored/moved on from … but where guns are concerned, some people have latched on to that as if it was the oxygen they breathe.
If these people are such democratic advocates, why doesn’t America put it to a vote?
Of course it’s because that even if they lost, the NRA would claim it was all rigged and the issue would continue – and possibly escalate – but while I appreciate it’s the people who kill others with guns rather than guns themselves, the fact is it would be more unlikely to occur with such frighteningly regular occurrence if gun access was severely limited.
Anyway, enough political posturing from me, watch these and weep.
