How well does Piers Morgan know himself? Pretty well, I'd say. Like him or loathe him, how many other guys will freely admit that they have been banging on about their pet subject like a bore at the bar?
If that subject is gun control, and you go on about it because little kids were mown down in their infant class, then fair play to you. Shout about it as loud as you like because YOU ARE RIGHT!
Instead, watch the footage as Morgan patiently sits out the rant of a bullet-headed bigot who demands to be able to carry high velocity weapons because he is an American and no one will take his armoury away from him, certainly not some jumped-up Brit who thinks he knows best.
Even the President backed down before that barrage. His biggest regret when he leaves office will be that he couldn't make the USA safer. The gun lobby got their way.
It may be that Morgan got boring and people switched off, but if they just got tired of his message then shame on them for not putting their children first and doing whatever they could to stop the shootings. At least Piers tried.
