Awsome job by Larry Pratt! You know you've won when Piers Morgan needs to revert to name calling because he has no legs to stand on in the arguement...  :thumbsup:

Amazingly well voiced argument from Larry Pratt. He didn't fall down to the level of name callling that Mr. Morgan did, and he had a great number of facts to back his position up. Thanks for sharing.

where guns might fall out and misfire?  cmon, piers.  if your gun misfires from a drop, it was made in the 40's

your murder rate is 35 vs 12000 in britain?  call us when you have 300 million people and a shitload of drug gangs.

by the way, i still think they're playing this off wrong.  Piers doesnt give a single shit what he's saying.  and especially by completely throwing out the mental illness issue and essentially saying "evil happens, let's protect ourselves and not try to fix it", is stupid, and all these gun grabbers, are like piers.  they dont want to hear it.  the arguments fall on completely deaf ears.  its a disastrously ineffective argument. 

Pratt won by default, only because piers doesnt do research beyond googling murder rates (he wont, because it will contradict his positions)

Totally agree Xer. Piers always attacks the pro gun guys he has on the show by attempting to argue with emotion rather than fact. If he starts to fail at that, he goes for simply drowning out the other guy by talking over them. I'm glad that Larry simply did the same thing to him to get him to shut up. It's Morgan's MO, he's run that script against John Lott and Alan Gottlieb, and up till now he's been marginally effective at just shouting louder than the guest.

By the way, I LOVE the fact that Larry brought up England's violent crime rate instead of the misleading "gun deaths" arguement that Piers loves. Piers immediately changed subject when the figures where articulated by Larry to disprove him.

Awesome!  Finally someone that can clearly articulate the 2A to pompous asses like Piers Morgan!   He was exposed for what he always does.  He interrupts the speakers when their views don't align with his.  He ALWAYS lets the Brady guys have their say.  Larry Pratt should've told him to go back to where he came from he if doesn't like the laws of AMERICA!

I've been posting this on all the anti-gun facebook pages I'm not yet banned from:

The Department of Homeland Security produced a video a while back that gave advice for dealing with an active shooter. The three things you should do in an active shooter scenario are run, hide, and fight. Let's look at that last one.

The slide for fight says, "As a last resort, and only if your life is in danger, FIGHT.

-Attempt to incapacitate the shooter
-Act with physical aggression
-Improvise weapons
-Commit to your actions"

I'd say the principal at Sandy Hook did everything someone in her situation could be expected to do. She acted in a committed, aggressive manner in an attempt to incapacitate the shooter. Unfortunately, we have laws that prohibit people like Dawn Hochsprung from having effective tools available. Rather than having a gun she could have used to fight and live, we condemned her to a fight against overwhelming odds: an unarmed female against a heavily armed male.

Her blood is on the hands of CAIG, MAIG, and all the Colin Goddards and Sarah Bradys of the world who would have us all reduced to cowering wretches, praying the gunman doesn't come for us, when you know full well that all too often, he does.

They should rename it "The View" with Bitch Morgan. This is what the antis did, capitalize on the emotions that are running high after that tragedy. Statistics don't mean anything to someone irrational. Soledad Obrien reacted in the same way.

Members need to watch this.  It's so entertaining watching Pierce get schooled and unable to bull-doze somebody.

Larry to Pierce:

The facts bounce right off your head.

What a great line and as true as it gets.  Too bad it's so widespread.

Wow. Now I recall why I don't have a TV.

That was supposed to be informative?

Excellent DHS video! :thumbsup: That would be a good video for administrators and managers to require all employees to view, new hires and annual reoccurring requirement for all employees, and not just in schools. And teachers could also provide some tips and a plan to their students. Could potentially safe lives in a crisis situation.

WOW! Just had a chance to watch this video. I am very happy that Morgan got schooled. He looked like a complete buffoon as soon as he lost his temper. Reality TV at its best.  The sad part about all of this is that I doubt our side is going to get through to those who are as liberal and pig headed as Morgan is. The facts are just that. They are the truth and tell a story Morgan doesn't want to hear. And an unwillingness to accept reality and living in an unrealistic world is how I categorize these extreme liberal people. Unfortunately, we have a majority of this type of people in our government.
