There’s no way to quantify how much of a factor the discussion of gun control on “Piers Morgan Live” has contributed to its ratings (which were never all that great to begin with), but the show’s numbers have fallen more sharply since it became a frequent subject on the show.

According to an influential entertainment magazine, Piers Morgan's ratings are in a death spiral and the reason might be his obsession with attacking Second Amendment rights of Americans.

I could tell you what a piers morgan is but my post would get removed.

I do love everyone who hands him his butt. That's pretty much everyone at this point.

He is a a Brit piece of %£&$ that was sent over to the states as he had worn out his welcome in the UK and his extreme left views in the UK had gotten him to a position where the paper he was with offered him his severance with no bonus. IF he where to come back to the UK it would be to live as a has been, as even among the far left and certain groups he was the public face for now consider him old hat.

Personally his green card needs to be called into question (I am willing to bet a good size of money that he got waived through for his work permit). He has no right to vote and is a progressive pieces of work that would be best suited to an appointment at the white tower and a very special gate and ending his existence on the gates of Whitehall. Then again I am an Italian American living in Scotland and most the folks up here consider my view to by letting him off lightly. -Michael

Okay for folks who don't know as not many who have not lived in London nor know the history of the city know.

The White Tower is the tower in the center of the Tower of London and was once not only an armory but also a prison. The gate is traitors gate and one passes through that gate only once and only one direction to a hill where currently sits a sun dial (where once was the location of the chopping block that the kings heads men used to deal with traitors).

To end ones day upon the gates of Whitehall is in reference to the fact that traitors heads would be placed upon the spikes of the gates as  a statement of the punishment for those who committed treason. The fact that I know a good number of Scots and English who consider the majority of the current government here fit for said special treatment just goes to show you that it is not only the US where people are getting fed up with the crud (I will refrain from the language that is used). -Michael
