Father of Parkland Victim Calls Louis CK’s Jokes ‘Pathetic’

As we previously reported, audio from a set from Louis CK included jokes about the survivors of the Parkland shooting that happened earlier this year. In a post on Twitter, Fred Guttenberg, whose daughter was killed at Parkland, lashed out at the comedian for his “pathetic” jokes. He wrote:

To anyone who knows Louis CK, please deliver this message for me. My daughter was killed in the Parkland shooting. My son ran from the bullets. My wife and I deal with loss everyday. Why don't you come to my house and try out your new pathetic jokes? https://t.co/tZI9ThSciR

CK previously mentioned not finding the Parkland kids interesting just because they survived a school shooting. He brought up the kids speaking at Congress and said: “What are you doing? You’re young, you should be crazy, you should be unhinged! Not in a suit, saying, ‘I’m here to tell’ — f**k you. You’re not interesting because you went to a high school where kids got shot! Why does that mean I have to listen to you? How does that make you interesting? You didn’t get shot, you pushed some fat kid in the way, and now I gotta listen to you talking?“
