CNN Tonight host Don Lemon went on a nearly-four-minute-long commentary on Monday emphasizing that he’s not “not anti-thoughts and prayers,” but demanded Congress defeat the NRA and pass gun control measures that wouldn’t have stopped Sunday’s Sutherland Springs church shooting.

“[P]lease pay attention if you're doing something or whatever. I really want your attention this evening and with an open mind. How many more times are we going to have to do this? Mourn with people we don't know but meet under the most horrific circumstances, their loved ones’ lives snuffed out in an instant for no good reason,” Lemon began.
