As we told you earlier, Jake Tapper grilled Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel on his office’s piss-poor performance in handling the before, during and aftermath of last week’s shooting at Stoneman Douglas H.S. in Parkland, Fla.

Now, this is how the Sheriff Answered when Tapper asked, “do you think that if the Broward Sheriff’s Office had done things differently, this shooting might not have happened?”

Tapper’s response was pretty good:

“I don’t know that that means, there are 17 dead people.” https://t.co/zdEIICNcsU

Honestly … jokes at time like this? WTF is wrong with him?

This is disgusting, he owes these grieving parents, children, @DLoesch and the @NRA an apology. This is an admission of guilt. It’s like something a mafia hit man would say on trial. https://t.co/Jk5gqG6E6a

What a deeply bizarre response to the question. That is not the appropriate moment for a cutesy saying. https://t.co/H0YdkJQ3on

In no universe is this an acceptable answer for a leader with 17 dead on his watch. https://t.co/7iSgH2CgBL

And he can take some responsibility:

All he did was "ifs and butts" when he constantly pointed the finger away from himself and his office. https://t.co/Rvg3Mtg2ZU

Not one shred of remorse. Just cocky defensive bluster. That isn't what's needed in order to make changes that will save lives. https://t.co/xgMNLAIy4o
