Jimmy Kimmel tearfully rips into politicians in wake of Vegas shooting

Posted on 10/03/2017 7:56:42 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

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.

He, like the rest of the Hollywood Left, are still at the anger stage over being angry at Hillary Clinton's loss last year.

This just in. The other 80,000,000 gun owners in the USA obeyed the law. Oh, wait, they don’t matter do they?

I do believe mass shootings are already against the law.

What a pathetic attention whore.

Where is it legal for this nut to have purchased a fully automatic machine gun?
I believe it is legal in Arizona and Nevada.

So now all the late-night comedians are politicized just like the NFL.

Another Pinko using a tragedy to to look like a feeling person. Ratings are the only thing that count to him.

Doesn’t have a clue on how to stop the sort of thing we just witnessed. All the pinko has to do is look around and see how his version of sale place doesn’t and didn’t work in various countries and states with cities with strict gun bans. Just a knee jerk reaction from the left as usual.

I sure as hell hope this Jimmy Kimmel guy isn’t related to Lt. Cmdr. Manning Kimmel, a submarine commander who gave his life fighting the Japanese during WWII.

Kimmel is a comedian, and he’s doing what he does best - making people laugh at him.

[[What new gun law would have prevented that?]]

A law that says “You may own a gun but you may not fire it’ of course- that would have stopped the crazed madman who didn’t give a damn about gun laws in his tracks

I’m surprised he has a show. Jimmy is not an entertainer, he is the Joy Behar of Late Night.

Go away Jimmy, you are a sell-out to communist Hollyweird.

We’ll give up our guns when this asshole dismisses his security guards which by the way carry guns to protect his ass!
