WATCH the showdown between @piersmorgan & @therealalexjones here.

Mention guns or gun control and you're sure to meet extreme reactions on both sides of the fence.

My own very personal view is that it's not for me, as a Brit to go to another country and tell them what they should be doing, but Piers Morgan takes a different view,. A view that he is rightly entitled to under the 1st Amendment to the United States Constitution. So while I can see his actions being perceived as interfering in the affairs of another Sovereign Nation, I certainly hope any 2nd Amendment supporter would back his 1st Amendment right to free speech.

Now I've interviewed both gentlemen for talkSPORT Radio (obviously not on sport :) and both are very strong willed people. Piers Morgan is clearlyl a media genius, transforming from Editor of the Mirror at a time when the paper's credibility was shot to pieces, to media superstar. I very much doubt that Piers Morgan is proselytising anything other than his true opinions on fully automatic weapons, but I think it would be fair to conclude that he's also a man to spot an opportunity for notoriety - and he's clearly got the globe talking about him.

Alex Jones is a highly successful broadcaster, and host of a nationally syndicated talk show. You can read his views at www.infowars.com . And Alex is a man I have also enjoyed interviewing on many occasions. He is often branded "a conspiracy theorist", a term I actually don't like, because the premise of a "conspiracy theorist" is that someone theorises that conspiracies exist. Watergate for one example shows that they do. Please check his site out and at the very least you'll be entertained - and whatever one might conclude about his take on life, it's apparent he clearly believes every word he says.
