Piers Morgan  is an asshole that doesn't understand what he's talking about.

Alex Jones shouldn't have gotten angry, but his frustration is fully understandable.

The only thing that stops a bad man with a gun is a good man with a gun. Oh and violent crime in England is very high despite gun control. Too man bad guys and not enough good guys with guns.

That's backwards thinking, and toxic to society. We shouldn't need eternal armed vigilance, it's barbaric.

So long as there are those who do evil I'd rather have a gun in my hand then 911 on the phone and a cop a mile away. Barbaric people are out there in spades, but they aren't the responsible citizens who just want to protect their family.

Whether you want to believe it or not there are people who will kill you for your shoes. They might have a gun, or a knife, or a big stick, but it won't matter if you have nothing to defend yourself with. England still has high violent crime rates despite their gun bans. Should we take the guns away from good people when we know we can't take them away from the bad ones? That's what would be toxic to society.
