there's no link yet. it just finished. i'm sure it will be on youtube. lord. he gave his detractors so much *ammo* against the anti gun controllers. he behaved like a raving maniac which left viewers most likely thinking that if he'd had a semiauto with him, he'd probably would have shot everyone on the set.

Someone should have tazed Jones and dragged him off the stage.

I don't watch or listen to Alex Jones or to Piers Morgan. So I think I can be pretty objective in my impression of this interview.
Alex Jones had all the facts at his finger tips - he was well prepared, I'll give him that - but because he tried so hard to squeeze every fact in, obviously fearing he would not have a chance, he'd be cut off - Jones does come across frenzied and frazzled - Piers Morgan plays Jones like a piano.
It's too bad. I agree with you, JT.
I think the anti-gun folks won re: this particular interview because Jones was too intense, too fearful, too emotional - symbolizing the type of irrational gun owner MSM wants to show as justifying gun control, ie. not wanting the Jones kind of person getting his hands on lethal weapons.

Precisely.
The proper way to win this debate is to just say, "We have a Constitution. It is the highest law of the land."
That throws the ball back and makes it very hot for them to touch. ANY response along the "Well nothing is absolute" or "They didn't mean an M16!" is met with, "Well, the First Amendment didn't forsee obnoxious Cable Talk-Jocks either. When are you terminating your show?"
The point is, you're not going to win on their turf and on their terms. You have to play the Schoolteacher Game with them and leave them with a binary choice -- the choice you want and something nobody wants.

CNN or shows like it would never ask someone like Edwin J. Vieira to appear.

Yep, getting Viera on CNN isn't going to happen.
Most CNN audiences don't know history very well. The US was born in Revolution and the Right To Revolt was preserved for the people.
Here's a fun exercise I did some time ago. Take a look at the Bill of Rights in order and then think about how a rebellion is planned.
The First Amendment guarantees you the right to sit with people and discuss it.
The Second Amendment guarantees you the right to get the tools to pull it off with.
The Third Amendment keeps the Government from posting a snitch in your house.
The Fourth Amendment ensures that the Government can't raid your storehouse out of the blue.
But what if you get caught?
The Fifth Amendment allows you to remain silent and ensures you can't be tried twice for it.
The Sixth Amendment guarantees you a speedy trial so you don't languish in prison forever - guarantees you a lawyer and to a jury so they can acquit you.
The Seventh Amendment allows juries to set rules and guarantees common law courts and that the jury gets to try the facts
The Eighth Amendment guarantees you won't be boiled in oil or tortured as an "example to others".
The Ninth Amendment guarantees your right to go forth and do it again if you fail.
Its a very strange document laid out in a peculiar order.
