Jimmy Fallon means well, but manages to get absolutely everything about Orlando wrong

Nothing here is what a confused and deceived culture thinks it is.

Unlike a lot of celebrities, I do not think Jimmy Fallon is actively hostile toward the traditions of this nation, nor toward Christianity. I think for the most part he just tries to get along with everyone and finds it easier to go with the flow of the prevailing culture rather than to think too deeply about things.

But either of the two stances - active hostility or passive acceptance - gets you to the same delusional conclusion, which is why Fallon’s brief and clearly heartfelt statement about the Orlando shootings from Monday’s Tonight Show is both widely celebrated across the Internet and completely and utterly wrong.

Amazing how many people get their news and "facts" from morons like Fallon. However, he's as accurate as most of the media.

I don’t know that Fallon even “meant well”. He obviously waded into something he doesn’t understand. The sad thing is, a 3rd grader would understand it. Fallon is just a dunce.

A dreadful monologue-———he’s really confused.

As far as worrying what to tell his kid? He’ll manage-—parents have been doing that forever.

An incompetent comic, an even worse interviewer, a notorious drunk gets something wrong?

"DUNCE"?? I haven't heard that word in a long while.
Suits him to a "t."

I don't watch comedy skits anymore as they aren't on my AT&T line up. I don't think that I miss much.

Next time his pal Obama is on to slow jam the news, Fallon needs to ask him why he’s opening the cell doors at Gitmo.

Fallon is just a dunce.

On his "best" day, he is a sketch comedian who never learned the basic of improv skills. He's totally lacking as a stand up, because he doesn't know stand up. Reading cue cards is challenge. And when guests are on his show, all he knows is to talk over them with childish babel.

Other than that, I have no opinion on him

"Jimmy Fallon means well..."

No. Stop right there.

Fallon does NOT mean well. He is a willing member of the extremist Hollywood left in their attacks on America. He gets paid well for those attacks. He hates our values, and uses "comedy" to attack and ridicule our values.

He can catch on fire right in front of me when his crack pipe explodes and yet I will respectfully decline to urinate on him.

I never wrote that Fallon meant well.
You completely misinterpreted my words.

Jimmy Fallon, like everyone in congress, means to make money that is all.

In fact, I laughed at the word "DUNCE." That's all...in that I hadn't heard that word in a long time.
Please try and READ what I write, not what you THINK I write. Thanks.

I watched his monologue last night...of course he missed the point.

And I watched him last week with Barry. Fallon reveres Obama...its almost disturbing.

And I watched him when Trump was on. Fallom would ask what he believed to be a gotcha question, Trump would answer, and Fallon would double over in laughter, thinking the answer to be absurd...

...but Trump kept talking...looked straight at the cameras and ignored Fallon. No media filter need. He can communicate directly with people while the ‘smart people’ scoff. It reminded me of Reagan - not every aspect of Reagan, but the ability to circumvent the media.

BTW, when I flipped away from Fallom, I stumbled on to Colbert...and BOR was on. BOR is a dangerous idiot, when it comes to guns.

The message of tolerance is fine if they could get it across to muslims.

Jimmy, show you can get the muzzies to be tolerant and then I’ll listen.

Go back to lip sync contests and silly mock game shows, stick with what you’re good at, Fallon.

Not to mention he’s on the universal tour, worse than whoopie.
