Watch Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel address mass shootings and slam Mitch McConnell for inaction on gun legislation

Colbert also gave props to Beto O’Rourke, who blamed Trump for fueling racism and violence in America. “Well said. That is refreshing candor,” Colbert said of O’Rourke. “It’s all well and good to offer thoughts and prayers, but sometimes you want shouts and swears.”

During Trump’s address to the nation following the shootings, he said, “In one voice our nation must condemn racism, bigotry and white supremacy.” To that, Colbert said, “I try my best every night, but you’re still in office.”on Monday. “After another week of sadness and outrage in the United States, we had two more mass shootings, one on Saturday in El Paso, the other in Dayton Sunday morning. Horrible, senseless tragedies again with many lives lost,” he said during his monologue.

“And we agree on this, too: They did a poll last year, and 97 percent of gun owners — these are gun owners — support universal background checks,” he continued. “97 percent, that’s unheard of. You can ask people, ‘Is ice cream delicious,’ and not get 97 percent, but the Senate majority leader, Mitch McConnell — this evil, soulless old creep — won’t even allow the Senate to vote on a bipartisan bill to require background checks for gun purchases at gun shows.

I've been enjoying Music and Stories behind it for decades, in a way it's sad to see Rolling Shit Magazine put a Gun to their heads about being relevant again, but ALL the chambers are full. But it makes me giddy that before they do pull the trigger, they set themselves on fire.

No thanks 👎🏻👎🏻

Rolling stones engaging into political correctness eill drive them out of busyness... stick to the music guys!!!

Do they ever mention that Obama and the Dems had the White House plus majorities in the Senate and House and yet did nothing on this issue? Nothing!
