[Yesterday, 89-year-old World War II veteran, and member of the greatest generation, James Von Brunn shot two people in the US Holocaust Museum in Washington, DC, killing a security guard. To match the somberness of the event, we're going to drop the one-liners and do this one late-night monologue style.]
So, did everybody hear about this? An 89 year old man shot two people at the Holocaust Museum yesterday. Yup, true story. A witness told police that it totally took all the fun out of his visit.
The 89 year old man was able to shoot two people because witnesses thought they were watching an interactive exhibit.
And it turns out the accused shooter, James Von Brunn, was a noted Holocaust denier. Yup, which made me think: if a Holocaust denier shoots somebody at the Holocaust museum, did it really happen?
To honor the event, the Holocaust museum is setting up a special wing devoted to Holocaust museum survivors. Thanks, everybody, we've got a great show tonight! David Carradine is here! We'll be right back.
