"There was an armed guard in Buffalo, there was an armed guard in Parkland, there was an armed guard at Uvalde," Kimmel said.
"They had armed guards, there were police officers armed on the scene and these murders still happen."
Kimmel continued to say the issues of mental health and gun control could and should both be addressed. Metal health is often discussed in connection with gun violence.
On Wednesday, Texas Governor Greg Abbott revealed that 30 minutes before the school shooting unfolded, Ramos, said on Facebook: "I'm going to shoot my grandmother."
In a follow-up post, he wrote: "I shot my grandmother," according to Abbott.
Less than 15 minutes later, Ramos posted: "I'm going to shoot an elementary school," the Texas governor said during Wednesday's press conference.
Meta Communications Director the messages that Abbott described were private one-to-one text messages that were discovered after the tragedy occurred.
The Republican governor said Ramos gained access to the school via a backdoor to an empty classroom.
The gunman then went through a sliding door that connected the empty room to another classroom, where the carnage unfolded.

He told the outlet: "There were at least 40 lawmen armed to the teeth but didn't do a darn thing [until] it was far too late."
