    Why is that Moran and some of his guests use term "assault rifles"...The term assault rifle is an invented liberal propaganda term...The semi automatic rifles that are being proposed to be banned are not "weapons of war" as they are commonly called. And the bans that are being proposed are for the way these rifles look ..the cosmetics features and not any of the functions or the mechanics..these bans are bogus and a scam. The rifle bans that ended 2004 proved that these bans are worthless and prevented nothing...this is a fact and not a theory. There are many use's for these semi automatic rifles by law abiding citizens....and the semi automatic system has been in use by the public for over a hundred years. Morgan and the other liberals will think nothing of using the Sandy Hook tragedy as a "tool" for liberal agenda knowing that these bans would have not prevented this or any other mass shooting..The pompous arrogant Morgan,is only spewing his liberal ideology and not the facts,Our 2nd amendment rights is none of his business..and he should go home to the UK where there is the highest violent crime rate in Europe,and the shooting violence has doubled there since they put their gun bans in effect.

    Rob Evans ( Canada):
    Where the hell is all this PARANOIA in the States coming from ? Well you do not need to be a rocket scientist to cone up with the answer. The reply by the Lawyer representing NRA was dumb and self-promoting. Well this jerk did not talk about all the dead INNOCENT SCHOOL-CHILDREN HE SAID WE NEEDS MORE GUNS? More guns more self-inflicted PARANOIA. I have lived in canada for 70 years and NO buggler has entered my home to kill me and thus I DO NOT HAVE AN AUTOMATIC ASSAULT GUN TO PROTECT myself. Love your show Pier. Canada has strict gun control-NO PROBLEM.

      Ya I've seen the Canadian health care system in action too. 12 year old boy dead in Calgary because he got the flu and there is not a heart specialist in a city of 1 million. You live in a glad house.

    A lot of of what you state happens to be astonishingly accurate and that makes me ponder the reason why I hadn't looked at this with this light before. This article truly did turn the light on for me as far as this particular topic goes. Nonetheless there is 1 factor I am not necessarily too comfy with and whilst I attempt to reconcile that with the actual main idea of your point, allow me see just what all the rest of your visitors have to say.Very well done. coach handbag kuala lumpur population http://www.google.com.br/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=5&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwix1bXsxNrVAhVKFJAKHQZvCSIQFghwMAQ&url=http://www.bestcoachhandbag.store
