"I want to send special good wishes to those watching from Las Vegas. You know what happened on Sunday night. I'm not going to get deep into it again tonight, I said what I had to say last night," Kimmel said of the horrific mass shooting at the Route 91 Harvest country music festival in Las Vegas Sunday night that left at least 59 people dead and more than 500 injured.

"But I do want to say something to those nuts who spent most of the day on television and online attacking those of us who think we need to do something about the fact that 59 innocent people were killed," ABC funnyman continued.

"They say it's inappropriate to be talking about it because it's too soon," Kimmel said. "Well, maybe it is too soon for you because deep down inside you know — in your heart you know you bear some responsibility for the fact that almost anyone can get any weapon they want, and now you want to cover yourself until the storm of outrage passes and you can go back to your dirty business as usual."
