Hi mods, Please feel free to move if not in the appropriate forum, thanks

I have just finished watching the debate between Morgan and Alex. I am interested to know who you think won the debate. I think Alex went in very hot headed, CNN new he would do this and they tried to give him enough rope to hang himself. I think this approach backfired.

Alex was certainly hot headed but he managed to get fast and furious in. I think he could have done much better had he relaxed and took things a bit more calmly, but I suppose thats just not his way

I give Alex my full respect for his beliefs, its irrelevant if he is a loud mouth, he definately has the moral High ground, sometimes it takes a Very loud mouth to force people to listen. This for me was a win for Infowars, well done guys

I don’t think anybody won. It wasn’t a debate. Piers finally came up against somebody who wasn’t going to be cut off or bullied like others. Alex didn’t do too well asking questions though. It was a poorly run interview and then at the end with 9/11 I think Piers asked him about that to make him look like a bit of an idiot in viewer’s eyes and to try to damage his credibility. Alex rambled too much and went off topic too often. I prefer he wrote a concise argumentative essay then do an interview like that.

However, I genuinely do not understand the stanch criticism Jones receives... Can someone please give me two or three good reasons behind the ill feeling? Facts to back up your claims would be nice too.

Alex Jones made a complete fool of himself and is an embarrassment to the people and truths he was representing


He was disrespectful, came unprepared, couldn't answer a simple question about gun deaths in Britain and when he realized he was completely wrong (after making 9/11 truthers look insane) he started doing an awful British accent.

Kids on the playground know better than to act like that

It was not a real debate...it was a forum for Alex Jones to make a fool out of himself and by association the pro gun crowd. Most people are not that dumb to automatically associate passion for madness but psychologically tptb did make the point. AJ has a problem in that when confronted with a question that he does not know the answer to he escalates the rant as he evades the question (# of gun murders in Britain in 2012?).....also he has a tendency to get off script (challenging Piers Morgan to a boxing match...."I'll wear the colors (red, white and blue) of the good ole usa and you wear the colors of.....the union jack (same colors/colours alex)."

The winner is Morgoth King of the Troglodites.

Because he is the all creator.

Because he dose not exist.

Nor do those two.

Bet I get more stars than you do.

Morgan won the "debate," simply because Alex Jones effectively committed suicide.

While Morgan was trying to have a civil conversation with Jones, Jones would run off on all sorts of tangents. In the end, Jones made a fool out of himself, and destroyed any credibility he once had. Furthermore, by acting the way he did, he completely made out all conspiracy theorists to be loons.

Morgan won.

Just because Alex is a loud mouth, which I hate by the way, doesnt make him my true enemy.

The enemy of my enemy is my freind. I know who my true enemy is, I hope others do also.

If you agree with what Alex Jones is saying, then he is your enemy.

His erratic and nonsensical behavior makes us all look bad and gives people like Piers Morgan all the ammunition they'll ever need.

For the next month CNN will be associating his outbursts and rage with "Pro Gun." And there's no one to blame but Alex for acting like an idiot on national television

I am not saying that Alex didnt act like an idiot on national tv, but that really doesnt bother me. Just because Alex acted hot headed doesnt make others hot headed. Alex has a loyal following and his rant on tv isnt going to change that fact. Those of us who know the truth are not going to stop supporting his and others efforts for freedom just because of one mans anger.

We are heading for tyranny, and people seem to think we should all act lovey dovey because we are on national TV. Give me a break,

If you cant stand the heat get out of the kitchen I say.

Definitely Piers Morgan (and i can't stand the man!).

As others have pointed out, Alex Jones avoided questions, ranted off topic and generally acted like a 5 year old in the playground who doesn't get his own way. Which is kind of ironic given that i have seen Piers Morgan do the same thing years ago when he got sacked by the Daily Mirror!

For me to admit that Piers won means Alex really messed up his big chance. Was he a patsy guest because it was figured that is how we would react? Very possible. In fact there are lots of questions that open up when you get Alex Jones onto MSM to represent a view point. However, those points aside, Piers won..........and the really bad thing is he doesn't even come across like he is trying too hard to win the debate (more that he having to act as "mother" in the situation).

It was not a 'debate'.

Throughout the whole thing I was caught between despair and disbelief. As some people on here might know, I'm not the biggest Alex Jones fan, but I'm definitely no Piers Morgan fan either. I was hoping to see Jones whoop Morgan on key issues, but no, AJ in my opinion made a fool of himself, came across like a lunatic foaming at the mouth, and discredited the ideology he supposedly represents. That said, I think he was too worked up when it came to this interview, and expected Morgan to be more vocal, but he played right into Morgan's reticent trap, and came out looking like a nutjob. You have to remember that although AJ got a lot of points into his ranting, it was irrelevant as he made the whole thing look like an American wrestling event, and viewers who may have never heard of him are from now on going to think he and his ilk are nothing more than maniacs, which is exactly what Morgan had planned.

I have to admit by the end, when AJ was putting on his fake British accent, I was laughing my head off.

Who wins when two brick walls argue?

All "debates" are useless. They only serve as choir preaching.

In this case preaching to a very, very, very small choir.

This whole thing can be reduced to:

AJ: This is mine and you cant have it.

PM: I dont want you to have it because I'm scared.

What the hell is so difficult about simply letting liberty be? Somebody tell PM and people like him to get over their irrational fear and then AJ and people like him can stop getting all pissed off all the time that people like PM are trying to take his stuff away.
