It feels like it has taken forever, but finally, Piers Morgan, the most hated Brit since Oliver Cromwell, signed off from his CNN show on Friday night, after the powers that be eventually wizened up and fired him. But he didn’t do so without first taking 3 minutes to beg America to ban guns…ALL guns.

According to Piers, he’s not “anti-American,” but rather, he’s “pro-American” because he wants to keep as many of us alive as possible. What a deeply generous thought. I’m so glad Morgan the Magnificent is looking out for me and you.

What’s truly pathetic is that after all has been said and done, the man still doesn’t understand that rants like this are the exact reason that he failed so miserably in primetime. Though, I suppose you could argue that his sheer arrogance and lack of a charming personality would have contributed to his crash-and-burn even without the anti-Second Amendment diatribes. Still, there’s no reason for me to kick the man when he’s down. I mean, Chelsea Handler already did a perfect job of that already:

Hopefully, the job won’t be handed to “Botox Bob” Costas next and his disgusting pink eyes. Can we just bring Larry King back now and forget this terrible experiment ever happened?
