Jimmy Kimmel excoriated politicians who sent love to the families of Las Vegas shooting victims, but who won’t pass legislation to curb mass shootings in this country.
“Here we are again, in the aftermath of another terrible, inexplicably shocking and painful tragedy,” Kimmel began Monday night’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” noting that Las Vegas is his hometown.
“And, of course, we pray for the victims, and for their families and friends and we wonder ‘why.’ And, as a result of that this morning, we have children are without parents and fathers are without sons, mothers without daughters. We lost two police officers, we lost a nurse from Tennessee, a special ed teacher from a local school here in Manhattan Beach. All these devastated families who now have to live with this pain forever because one person with a violent and insane voice in his head managed to stockpile a collection of high-powered rifles. And used them to shoot people.
“The shooter was an accountant, with no criminal record, he wasn’t on a watch list; he wasn’t an extremist.
“And, because of that … I’ve been reading comments from people who say, ‘This is terrible, but there’s nothing we could do about it,’” Kimmel said.

Does this POS not know when to shut up?
Somebody needs to explain the Peter Principle to Jimmy and how he reached his highest/best use with “Best Damn Sports Show” and the trampoline boob babes.
Yes, because passing laws that only affect the law abiding will do wonders to stop bad guys intent on committing evil acts.
I suppose he wants to lose the rest of his audience ...................
Stupid libtards don’t understand the constitution
This guy illegally modified those guns. What ya gonna do about that?
Where is it legal for this nut to have purchased a fully automatic machine gun? What new gun law would have prevented that?
And how pray tell would they do it? There are over 300 Million guns in America.
The horse has left the barn.
Impossible.
Again, murder is against the law . . . why on Earth do they think a murderer would obey yet another gun law?
Preachy, whiney, fake.
Does anyone even watch the 3 so-called lousy comedians on late-nite anymore? I am amazed that they even have shows anymore. Jay Leno was a weak successor to Johnny Carson, but these SNL graduates are pathetic. And Kimmel has been radicalized by the libtards, which seem to be the only reasons that anyone even watches his show.
Who watches this drama queen? He’s gone off the deep end and definitely is not funny.
We need to ban crazy ‘rats.
That possible hasn’t praid for anybody but himself and I doubt it’s to our God.
WOW! He’s so smart about, well, EVERYTHING. Maybe he should run for CONgress. His audiences are apparently even worse since they (from what I’ve heard, never seen) applaud his commentary.
Kimmel: the new poster child for Low-T.
Kimmel certainly learned little from his former colleagues that launched his career.....Ben Stein and Adam Corolla.
No he doesn’t know when to shut up. He’s liberal, and bending over backwards to prove that he is liberal. Liberals making half assed political statements is more important to them, than their actual job; in this case, attracting a broad audience for his show is less important than his half assed commentary.
Hey, Kimmel! How come you don’t cry about the people being gunned down in Chicago every day?
Oh, that’s right, they’re not in your “color wheel.” Hypocrite!
Throw their virtue signaling right back in their faces.
Freepers have taught me that fully automatic weapons are legal in some states including Nevada.
question- Las Vegas is run by demoKrats- are the gun laws in Las Vegas different from the gun laws in other parts of Nevada?? i have no clue how that works..
