That was absolutely delightful to watch. I cannot recall the last time someone who actually understands how to hold a logical debate was allowed onto a pundit show without their mic being cut off.

Yeah, that Morgan V Shapiro video is rather pants.

Admittedly, I'm not halfway through it there but it is entirely possible that a proper working debate could have happened there. :(

While I think Mr. Shapiro could indeed such a debate, I doubt Mr. Morgan has the capacity or fortitude for such things.

I would question whether or not that is the case, given that the citation is for a Senate Amendment, and not the actual document.

Additionally, I've been looking for the relevant language in the final bill for some time (by direct search, and section search), and I've not found it.

And it's not even a precedent against registration though. A section stating "The ACA does not give authority to enact a gun registry" does not equal the idea that "The ACA prohibits all gun registries."

Doesn't really matter. The language of the Senate amendment that was cited (3276, passed in 2009) does not appear in the relevant section of the final bill (Title 1. Sec. 2716*), maybe similar language appears elsewhere but right now it looks like a case of poor research.


*Hint: there is no part (c) in the final version of Sec. 2716.

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


I forgot to say, welcome to the states MGS.

Its his right to speak his mind and to suggest deporting him for that is perhaps the most un-American thing to do. Sure the guy can be a douche but I feel its wrong to silence anyone even the Westboro crazies.

Comparing tournament records is another form of e-peen measuring.

What does Charlie Brooker think of Jeremy Clarkson?

Not much I expect, but then again I have rarely read a Charlie Brooker article that isn't slagging someone off.
