Pretty typical of a gun control discussion between gun control advocates and gun rights advocates.
Who argues like a feminist, emoting at will, facts be damned?

But otherwise, this dimension has been studiously ignored by the media. Of course, if the media acknowledged that the guns were stored improperly, that would detract from their argument for more gun control. Speaking from personal experience, almost anyone who is pro gun control and does not own a gun is a damn retard when it comes to discussing guns - they're so emotionally repulsed by them that they can't discuss them maturely; all they can muster is 'get rid of them!' This would be like a bitter cyclist seeing a senile old guy run people over, and then declaring that private car ownership should be abandoned.
They're only harming themselves - if they put some of their energy into making gun ownership more secure, instead of just opposing guns completely, they might be more effective in reducing disasters like these. Instead, when the gun opponents lose, they lose influence over how guns are used.

This is how a lot of anti gun people are. It's a lot like liberals and those ugly feminists who claim to be so open minded. They're closed minded as hell, give off a nasty "holier than thou" attitude and start calling you all sorts of names when you don't agree with them. I'm sure they think I'm some sort of militia, Republican, backwards freak just for having a pistol and not putting all my faith in cops to rescue me if my life's in danger.

Ever notice how most anti-gun people have No. Fucking. Clue. what 'semiautomatic' means?

Piers Morgan got utterly annihilated here.
Also, I hate the fact that British people go over to America and act like we don't have any guns in this country, and thus the amount of guns in America must be the problem. In reality, it is perfectly legal to have shotguns, rifles etc. over here and we still have a low gun-crime rate, so the amount of guns can't be the only problem with America - it is a cultural issue.
Listening to Piers Morgan, you'd think that everyone in Britain was vehemently opposed to firearms and that there aren't any guns here. in reality, there are shooting clubs in most small towns and gun shops aren't uncommon sights, at least out in the country.
The thing is, farmers and game-shooters aren't typically mass-murderers, neither are regular blokes down the pub.

Great point there. Pratt also makes a solid point in the video about the Korean merchants in Los Angeles who used AR-15 type assault weapons in order to protect their lives and businesses against the horrific gang violence in the city. It's about self defense!

Lads Piers Morgan is no reputable journalist, only over in America he seems to be. In the UK he is reviled.
His newspaper posted fake pictures of British troops torturing Iraqis. He was also involved in the phone hacking by UK newspapers where 3 to 4 murdered young girls(plus their families) and numerous celebrities phones were hacked.
He argues like a bitch

For some reason the ignorant masses in the U.S. think someone with a British accent is superior in intelligence. Just look at the British pitchmen here on the infomercials.
