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.

I just want to give you something to laugh about at night. But that has become increasingly difficult lately. And lately, it feels like someone opened a window into hell.”
That window into hell you refer to is looking inside the Entertainment Industry, where the bulk of evil in America exists.
His beard must be growing inside his brain.
No, they won't.
Did you see this:
Some are beginning to wonder what is really wrong.
Jimmie Kimmel desperately needs Jesus.
Just wait until the Two Witnesses show up and the Tribulation begins.
They’ll be asking some questions then......
He was a man's man, great comedian. Now he's a sniveling snowflake.
True story: Bradshaw and Howie Long threatened to kick his @ss because Kimmel made fun of them too much.
Sorry, gotta vehemently disagree.
Leno is a CLASS act. Just as good as Carson was.
Never injected liberal politics into his monologue. He attacked both the Left and the Right.
Love Corolla.
Agreed
It’s funny that even on this so-called “Conservative Christian” website you have huge numbers of naysayers try to explain to you what is really going on. They think it’s “normal” and “natural”.
Sure it is! Consider the fact that not one person who’s ever lived and died, actually died of a “natural death”. Death isn’t natural, but it is they say...
When we’re gone, the Spiritual Warfare will be literally revealed to them. Supernatural, doesn’t even begin to describe what I believe awaits the left-behind folks.
He’s a nut case.
So very true Roman.
I am listening to the Gospel of John on my IPhone on the way to work.
Today I listened to Chapter 7, which about Jesus going to the festival, which was Sukkot (Feast of Tabernacles). I picked the Gospel of John at random to listen to. I found it an interesting coincidence that Tabernacles started yesterday and ends next Wed.
It is interesting to me that His brothers told Jesus to go to the festival, so that He could gain in His fame. Jesus said He would not go, but then later went in secret.
It was during the festival that Christ made one of His most impassioned pleas:
37 On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink! 38 Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them."
May we all hang in there, even during the troubles of this life. And may we be filled with hope, knowing that our Redeemer longs to be with us, and to take us home.
“May we all hang in there, even during the troubles of this life. And may we be filled with hope, knowing that our Redeemer longs to be with us, and to take us home.”
Toughest part is hanging in there. While stuck in traffic visiting clients or going to work I often wonder what these folks have on their minds. Their next smoke? The game? Bills? Their significant other?
Me, I’m still trying to wrap my mind around Christ and how magnificent and wonderful it’s going to be to be with Him! I can’t think of any other place better to be than with Him.
“Till we meet at Jesus’ feet”
