Conservative commentator Ben Shapiro scolded Jimmy Kimmel for the late-night host’s calls for stricter gun control measures in the wake of the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history.
“Jimmy Kimmel should not be cheered for what he did,” Shapiro said Tuesday in a video on “The Daily Wire,” an online publication he founded in 2015. “Jimmy Kimmel should be asked to provide the evidence for his suppositions rather than the evidence for his emotions.”
“Again, I believe he’s sincere,” Shapiro added. “Sincerity does not make what you’re saying smart.”Shapiro went on to say Kimmel’s statement that GOP lawmakers “should be praying for God to forgive them for letting the gun lobby run this country” was a divisive comment meant to further divide the country.”Last night, he did a long shtick about gun control that was entirely based on emotion and it was really nasty. It was really nasty. I don’t think it was nasty because he doesn’t care. He cares. It’s really nasty because he’s suggesting that you and I don’t care,” Shapiro concluded.
