We’ve often referred to Piers Morgan as “Musket” for his super originalist reading of the 2nd Amendment, and today he was back at debating gun rights in the wake of the El Paso and Dayton shootings over the weekend:
I did that last week & I'm glad he's now denounced white supremacy.
Today, I want the President to remove the weapons being used to execute hate/bigotry/racism.
Stop tooling the terrorists. https://t.co/sQtexKPlbp— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) August 5, 2019
Ummm. No-that’s govt tyranny and the reason we have the second ammendment

Morgan’s response comes with a beverage warning:
If your govt attacks you, it will have 5,000 nukes at its disposal, so you'll probably lose with a bunch of assault rifles. fyi. https://t.co/n1LlSZG16j

Wow, that approach sure sounds familiar!
Piers, it looks like your account has been hacked by that idiot Swalwell guy. https://t.co/eP14xsc3g4

Wow! I just found @ericswalwell 's 1 supporter.? https://t.co/rlFPmilJDH

And that argument is just as well thought through as it was when Swalwell used it:
So, in your scenario, the govt is nuking their own country. I can tell you’ve thought this through. https://t.co/V01m6ZXxkx

Totally brilliant, right?
Frigging Piers and Swallwell are clearly cut from the same cloth/school of thought pic.twitter.com/fgd0Y5L55o

If you seriously think a government would nuke their own country, then you are literally braindead. https://t.co/9nB79aGwk6

>the government will nuke it's country to defeat itself

Maybe Morgan (and Swalwell) should just leave this one alone:
The logical extension to Pier's argument is that I need an ICBM in my backyard, just in case of government tyranny.

I guess I need a nuke then. Thanks https://t.co/5CzCTFcz3H

Does the Left really want to take the argument there?
Ya gotta live the moronic tweets from the left when it comes to all out gun confiscation. https://t.co/xoRxsTQetU

They’re endlessly entertaining.
This sounded better in his head. https://t.co/QZqT2MGrfg
