Another fan compared called Louis C.K. a "vile a**hole."
As RadarOnline.com readers know, on February 14, 2018, gunman Nikolas Cruz opened fire at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, killing 17 students and staff members and injuring over a dozen more. Cruz has since confessed to being the shooter and was charged with 17 counts of premeditated murder and 17 counts of attempted murder.
The lewd jokes come after a disgraceful year for Louis C.K. In August, sources spilled to RadarOnline.com that the comedian was desperate for a comeback after being accused of sexual misconduct by at least five women during the #MeToo movement.
Then, in October, Sarah Silverman admitted to Howard Stern that Louis C.K. once masturbated in front of her. Despite the inappropriate act, Silverman said the once-funny man was like a "brother."
