Montel Williams on America's relationship with guns: "Violence is a part of our society"
On Wednesday evening, television and radio host Montel Williams joined Piers Morgan for an engaging and lively discussion on gun control, multiple sclerosis and his upcoming trip to Chile. Williams spoke passionately about how America needs to "get a grip with its current state of depression."
"Because the gun really isn't the problem," said Williams. "The gun is just one avenue."
"I'm a gun owner," the former Marine said. "I was trained by the military. Why would you want to take away my gun? I'm not going to go out and blow somebody up, but why can't we change the way we allow people to buy them?"
Williams said "violence is a part of our society" but he stressed the need to tone down the "rhetoric" that, in his mind, is encouraging "hate, discontent, [and] anger."
He shared with Morgan his feelings on the shooter that killed 12 and wounded 58 in an Aurora, CO movie theater recently:
"Can we calm down some of the rhetoric and remember that there are people like this young man who walked in and shot up that movie theater who's a schizophrenic, at least alleged to be?" asked Williams. "And if he is, they don't understand the difference between rhetoric and can't filter it. Can we help a little bit of that? That's the bigger discussion."
Watch the clips, and listen to the interview, as Williams explains why he wants to see more gun control.

Montel is right about Term Limits!! We need to stop these career politicians who do nothing, but get rich from their lifetime position. Montel is wrong about politicians who gives good speeches. Obama does that, but he hasn't really done anything but talk a good game. We all need to see 2016 !
I agree in principle although Piers's calling guns killing machines is another example of useless rhetoric. Guns are objects shaped from metal and polymer. They have neither intent nor malice. There's a great post about this called "Conversations with my AK-47". Take a moment to read it – perhaps you'll find it enlightening and perhaps you'll find it educational.

Guns do not kill people; people kill people. Knives and forks can be used in killings too. Should we ban eating utensils?
Peirs is obviously anti gun, the fact that they gave a British guy one of the best spots in television sickens me. He does not belong filling Larry Kings shoes. There he is on his high horse trying to tell Americans what they should do with their guns. What an idiot. Spreading the same anti gun crap everywhere. His show should be boycotted.
When it comes to the shootings, it is about the way we treat or should I say, fail to treat our mentally ill in America. Years ago they closed the state hospitals. They let all the mentally ill leave. (this is true...look it up) Now we wait for them to commit crimes and THEN we lock them up in prison with little to no treatment. If we had given them treatment in the first place a lot of these crimes would not be committed and we would not be spending thousands of dollars a year for them to be in prison. Many could be tax paying, working individuals. Just another good reason for universal health care if you ask me.
Piers...just what kind of a name is that anyway. It's a fishing platform , a boat dock , a diving platform , not a name. I don't watch the guy , doesn't interest me at all.
montel is smarter than 99% of the rest of america! ty montel
NEWS: SECRETS OF MICHAEL JACKSON KEPT FOR NEARLY HALF A CENTURY NEWS: True story planned by Michael Jackson and I not to be released until now
Mark Hammock aka “Bandit One Glove” is “The Secret Long Lost Blood-Brother” of Michael Jackson aka “The King of Pop”
After reading the book "KING OF POP And BANDIT ONE GLOVE" the world will have a better understanding of the complex humanitarian I knew Michael to be long ago before the fame and darkness of stardom started its erosion of his public image.
When he was just seven years old, we fought against our will, our religious beliefs and seemingly insurmountable odds, to protect a school full of terrified children and our selves.
For 3 months we were inseparable friends until our forced separation. But that was after our Blood-Brother ceremony and the secret oath we took.
You will find out why we both felt strongly enough to keep this secret for fifty years without losing our faith in each other on the promise that both of us or the one remaining would tell this story half a century later.
The story of “The King of Pop and Bandit-One-Glove” is the key that will hopefully unlock the true heroic potential of the meekest, mildest, and even the most defenseless of our children and help in the effort to prevent bullying, terrorism, prejudice and senseless violence.
Michael Jackson and I believed that every person on this earth has a hero inside them just waiting to be unlocked by reaching out to all those around you.
The book "KING OF POP And BANDIT ONE GLOVE" is already available for readers to purchase at “The Kindle Store“
