Jon Stewart laid into the right over the matter of gun control on the Daily Show last night, attacking “paranoid fear of a possible dystopic future” which “prevents us from addressing our actual dystopic present”.

The comedian also addressed the NRA vice president’s speech which blamed gun violence on video games, and Piers Morgan’s interview with shock-jock Alex Jones. Watch the whole thing, in two parts, below:
