First off, my condolences go out to the Newtown, CT community as they mourn this unthinkable tragedy.
Last night on CNN, Piers Morgan took gun lobbyists to task for suggesting that more guns would have prevented the massacre at the Sandy Hook Elementary School that took the lives of twenty children.
The TV host blasted the suggestion, saying that he was "furious" that stricter gun laws haven't been enacted yet, and that more guns continues to be the solution offered by 2nd Amendment advocates. He referenced the Gabrielle Giffords shooting, the Aurora massacre, and the Dunblane massacre in Britain in 1996 as reasons why there should be better gun laws.
Even though it did devolve into a screaming match worthy of Fox News, I definitely applaud Piers Morgan for speaking out against one of the causes of these senseless tragedies.
