Overzealous
conspiratarian and Ideal Ritalin Test Subject #1 Alex Jones was on muskets-in-the-2nd-Amendment Piers Morgan’s show a few days
ago. This would be funny if it weren’t
all so painfully real. I have lost my
faith in God…
Okay, I
haven’t really lost my faith in God.
Hell, if there was any one event that would have made me renounce my
faith in the Almighty who both blessed and cursed me with life on this cartoon
cavalcade of a circus planet, it probably would have been my soul-crushing
break up with the most stunningly beautiful (no joke) Ron Paul supporter in the
state of Indiana. Creepertarians, you
can stop your heavy breathing now!
Upon viewing
the televised verbal clash I was tempted to simply drink myself into a stupor
requiring medical attention and voluntary commitment to a sanitarium, with the
hopes I’d sober up and check myself out just in time to caucus for Rand Paul in Iowa in December
2015. However, I figured if Job lost his
whole family to Satanic-induced death, his health to boils, and his home to
stronger wind than Kansas in The Wizard of Oz, then I probably
had very little room to complain. Damn,
I hate it when other people’s real problems expose my first-world problems as
pathetic…
But I digress.
Alex Jones was
on Piers Morgan’s show on national cable television. This at first made me burst into hysterical
laughter. This is better than a
prime-time mash-up of The Kardashians and Jersey
Shore! Then I suddenly realized
the ramifications of Alex Jones TALKING on Piers Morgan’s national cable show:
Oh. Crap.
I watched the
interview and Jones jumped straight to the Totalitarians Argument. I will give credit where credit is due: Jones
did his homework and came to the set with FBI crime statistics showing an
average 20% drop in violent crime in areas with more guns in the hands of
law-abiding citizens. He also was
absolutely correct that the Second Amendment was written to protect citizens
from tyrannical government. Anyone who
doesn’t believe me can read Federalist # 46 (written by the author of the
Constitution).
Then the rest
of the interview was Jones shouting like a man doomed to stroke out while
Morgan was the stereotypical snippety English elitist. What horrified me most was that the clip of
Jones warning of 1776 happening again made it onto the Daily Show with Jon Stewart.
This means Alex Jones is considered by mainstreamers to be a voice of
libertarianism. People are now uttering
the name of a ranting conspiratarian in the sentence as [the name of] a
well-loved retired Republican Congressman from Lake Jackson, Texas. WHY, GOD, WHY?!
What many conspiratarians (and fanatical Libertarian Party members) often fail
to understand is this: while the Totalitarians argument (Hitler, Stalin, Mao
took the guns…) is absolutely correct, we can’t just blitzkrieg ideological
opponents with it. We need to stick with Ron Paul/Rand
Paul/Mike Lee/Justin Amash approach and be the libertarian snakes in the
neoconservative grass. We have to
gradually convince the public of the validity of libertarian ideas through a
clear line of reasoning. Otherwise, we
look like crazy ideologues who go on YouTube and talk about all the undercover
cops that have been following them since their interview on the Piers Morgan
show.
As for Piers
Morgan, his arguments were fallacious.
The fact still stands that Sandy Hook Elementary School, the movie
theater in Aurora, and Columbine High School were all designated Gun Free
Zones. Piers is a man in a precarious
position right now; few people have over
104,000 signatures demanding their deportation on WhiteHouse.gov. Ouch!
And I thought I had problems!
There was only one person who
wanted me out of Indiana. Suck to be
you, Piers!

Piers Morgan is a NWO shill. He is not a citizen of this country, so what business does he have in saying anything about our country. Likewise, what the fuck business does America's communist president Obama, and former fascist presidents Bush One and Two have telling other countries what they should do. My fellow Americans ... do NOT give up your guns. Hide them. Just don't give them up.
ReplyDeleteNice column, Zach. Fun to read but very informative. Morgan is like a radio that can only send but not receive. Simply a simple minded shill for the british crown and the new world order. As far as Jones goes; he did have some good info, but, he did end up sounding a little crazed.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the article.
