Not sure if serious or not, but that's the standard Canadian affair of Poutine...
Not being serious at all
GW Rules Interpretation Syndrom. GWRIS. Causes people to second guess a rule in a book because that's what they would have had to do in a GW system.

Regardless, keep him. He's right on this issue anyway.
He's suggested trying British-style gun amnesty in the US. It worked for you guys, and that's all well and good, but suggesting something like that in America isn't right, it's delusional.
Now now, come off it old bean! I'm as American as this basket of chips! Speaking of which any one have some gravy and cheese curds?
So you're a Spaniard it seems!
Any of our Canadian dakkanauts want to correct him? XD
Ah yes, the classic dish of British "Chips"!

“Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'”
Piers Morgan is unbelievably belligerent. I don't agree with everything Pratt had to say but Piers Morgan was incredibly disrespectful, while Pratt was pretty civil throughout the whole discussion. And this is supposed to be better than Fox News? Totally unprofessional.
Well, this seems like the perfect place to put this. Jump to 4:37 for the greatest moment in the recent history of CNN.
Props to Mr. Pratt for not sinking to Pier's level. I do find it highly amusing that he immediately switched to name calling when he ran out of counter arguments. Is CNN an elementary school playground now?
I beg of you sarge let me lead the charge when the battle lines are drawn
Lemme at least leave a good hoof beat they'll remember loud and long
He was glib and patronizing and I'm not surprised he got a roasting. Morgan milked it for all it was worth and remains a snide turd but all those little jabs about 'merry olde england', yeah, merry old england with lots more people safely in nursery and cinemas dill weed.
As Infowars documented in a previous article, Morgan’s assault on the constitutional rights of American citizens is not protected under the first amendment because he is not a U.S. citizen.
Wait WHAT?
For thirteen years I had a dog with fur the darkest black. For thirteen years he was my friend, oh how I want him back.

As much as I think this guy's a tosser, and would love to see him leave, I'm pretty sure that's wrong...

That includes permanent residents like me or those working on a visa like Morgan. Sorry.

Its ok. Per his ratings only about three people watch him anyway.

It's Infowars. Trivial details like "facts" don't matter.
There is no such thing as a hobby without politics. "Leave politics at the door" is itself a political statement, an endorsement of the status quo and an attempt to silence dissenting voices.
The centre of a massive brood chamber, heaving and pulsating.
So some guy says "change the second amendment".
People want him out of the country.

...What?
I haven't been this confused since the ending of Neon Genesis Evangelion. And that was excusable as the studio ran out of money.
This just makes...no sense.

How dare you sir?
How dare I imagine a world without a lanky denim clad spanker who randomly spouts Daily Mail headlines and desperately wants to be a 'national treasure'?
There is only one King of the Britons, sir... He of the voice like thunder and beard like a primordial forest. Behold him and wonder!

I'm just waiting for his deliciously ironic car crash. Hopefully involving a Mexican/Indian/other nationality he has managed to piss off prostitute who will of course be unharmed.
Brian Blessed is massively into yoga and is shy. Honestly.

The prefect example of someone missing the point.
Do not underestimate the Squats. They survived for millenia cut off from the Imperium and assailed on all sides. Their determination and resilience is an example to us all.

All this talk of 'attacking' the constitution just gives me an ironic image in my head of Piers Morgan rushing into the National Archives with an assault rifle.

Yes we like our guns more than foreign devils who come to our country, take our money, and then tell us how stupid we are. I vote deport him just because he's a scurrilous dog unfit to kiss Tbone's toe nail. But thats pretty much every "journalist."
I like this new system of polls for inane subjects. I think we should start a petition to make TBone the Wiener Dog Master of America.
