Already did, for the 4th or 5th time.

Have you stopped beating your wife?


The implied guilt is baked into his statement.

Why would anyone suspect he was 'not MAGA' , based on the available (at the time jimmy said this) information.

Look, I don't know what you're going through, maybe the murder hit harder than you realize. I can't say.

Get some rest.

Oh I know, what if they started canceling conservatives or telling the entire country men can get pregnant or that white people are inherently racist

OK, we're done.

Provided the quote, 2 times, 5 times, don't care, doesn't matter. It was from page 1 of this now even longer thread.

Are you a Kimmel fan club President. Are you bummed or something? I didn't pull him off the air, I didn't indefinitely suspend him, yet you think you've going to wage (and win? ) some message board Jihad against... something, I don't even know what your issue is.

And now I don't care.

You provided A quote.

Where is the quote where he says the kid was on the right or MAGA? You have not provided that quote. Not once.

Just a quote of him saying Maga was desperate to show he wasn't on the right.

I loathe Kimmel. Absolutely abhor him.

If I dislike someone, it doesn't mean I am going to lie about them. That would make me as bad as them.

That is when I make EXTRA sure to be very careful that I am telling the truth about that person.

So it wasn’t a dangerous road when the shoe was on the other foot but now that it’s affecting the other side it’s not a good thing? Gtfoh

To be fair, this can be interpreted in multiple ways. SEK is saying that Kimmel is saying that maga people are trying to characterize this as someone not maga, but wink wink he actually is maga. Roaad is taking kimmell at his word in that he doesn’t like that maga folks are trying to use this as a reason to attack the left.

You both aren’t wrong IMO. Just move on. The sad part is that THIS is what Kimmel thought was worthy of mentioning over the many atrocious behaviors that occurred this past weekend.

Nope. It was awesome when people he disliked were losing their gigs.

That is just the "But. . .I mean. . .come on" defense.

He was clear in what he said.

There are reasons to think he is a piece of shite for what he actually said. . .and I do,

But attributing what you WANT him to have said, to what he actually said, is just dishonest.

I bet you were also deeply offended in 2021 when Chris Harrison was forced off the Bachelor for the great sin of saying one of the contestants should not be crucified for going to an pre antebellum themed party when she was in college. We’ve been going down this road for a while now. It’s simply correcting itself now.

What am I missing. His actual language/the transcription is exactly what it's being portrayed as.

Maybe, but the way he said it, made me feel like he could have meant that. If you just read the words, it is harder to get there. When I first watched the clip, it seemed that he was implying that MAGA people are so dumb (Kimmel’s MO) and that they can’t see that this guy was actually one of their own. I’m not 100% sure though that’s actually what he meant after thinking about it. Not even 50% at this point.

Depends on who is framing it.

Some people are using it to say something that he didn't say.

In the quote, he never says the shooter was MAGA or on the right.

He said Maga were desperate to show he wasn't one of them.

When dealing with people we dislike, you can't let your emotions cloud your reasoning. That is the MOST IMPORTANT time to rein in your feelings and engage with reason.

There are so many ways he COULD have said that, and easily.
