Craig Morgan Thinks Michael Moore Should Be Put in Jail
CRAIG MORGAN is not ready to let the “American Sniper” controversy die down. In a radio interview he tore into MICHAEL MOORE for disrespecting Chris Kyle, the soldier whose life is depicted in the movie.
Craig said, quote, “[Michael Moore] abuses the privileges of this country more than anybody. Why he’s not put in jail is beyond me. He’s just short of terrorism in my opinion, and deserves none of the blessings that we have in this country.”
Craig did admit that Moore has the right of free speech, but he not the right to abuse it. Quote, “I believe that we do have the right to speak our mind, and that’s the luxury and the blessing of living in the United States of America.
“[It’s] a country that men and women have died for to ensure that we can speak our minds. But just because you have the right to say something doesn’t make it right.”
