After the Las Vegas Mass Shooting, Late Night Addresses a Heartbroken Nation

Another mass shooting.

This time, somehow even deadlier than all the other

mass shootings.

I want this to be a comedy show.

I hate talking about stuff like this.

That, it seems to be coming increasingly difficult lately.

In the face of tragedies and acts of terror,

we need to remember that good still exists in this world.

Eleven thousand, six hundred and sixty people

have died from gun violence in the last 275 days

in this country.

They say that this was the worst in American history,

but every shooting is the worst for someone.

The sounds of those automatic weapons last night

are grotesquely out of place in a civilized society.

Gun violence should not be a staple of American life.

When you say, which you always say,

now is not the time to talk about it,

what you really mean is there is never a time

to talk about it.

We have 59 innocent people that it wasn't

their time either.

So I think know is the time for political debate.

Something needs to change.

It really does.

So the people of Las Vegas I can't give you thoughts

and prayers.

I can only say that I'm sorry.

I'm sorry that we live in a world where there are people

who will put a gun before your lives.
