Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting survivor and gun violence prevention activist Aalayah Eastmond is still waiting for an overdue apology from Louis C.K. after he roasted survivors of the mass shooting in Parkland, Florida, in his stand-up routine.

In December 2018, leaked audio revealed C.K.'s stand-up set insensitively criticized Parkland students for their political activism in the wake of the traumatic tragedy.

“They testified in front of Congress, these kids — like, what the f**k? What are you doing? You’re young. You should be crazy! You should be unhinged, not in a suit saying, ‘I’m here to tell —’ f**k you! You’re not interesting," the former Louie star can be heard saying. "Because you went to a high school where kids got shot — why do I have to listen to you? How does that make you interesting? You didn’t get shot. You pushed some fat kid in the way, now I gotta listen to you talking?”

His performance, which also included vulgar commentary undermining preferred pronouns for the LGBTQIA+ community, was purportedly among the disgraced comic's early forays back into stand up after allegations of sexual misconduct surfaced against him the previous year.

Soon after the recording hit Twitter, outraged individuals — including Eastmond — took to social media to criticize C.K.'s insensitivity.

Louis C.K, although taking jello shots & eating mushrooms might have been ideal for you when you were 18, that is not the luxury that we have after having to see our friends and classmates in caskets because of preventable gun violence. https://t.co/Hx5cGoxOPn

Hey Louis CK – since you like making fun of me and other Parkland survivors behind closed doors, I’m right here if you want to talk. Just try to keep it in your pants, ok?

Though C.K. is said to have removed these jokes from subsequent sets, he still has yet to express remorse or make any attempt at amends with those he knowingly offended. He did, however, reportedly allude to their reactions to the leaked stand-up routine during a set at San Jose Improv the following January.

“If you ever need people to forget that you jerked off, what you do is you make a joke about kids that got shot,” he told the audience in San Jose, according to Vanity Fair.

On November 2, 2019, the official kickoff to what's been described as C.K.'s international comeback tour, Eastmond gave an exclusive interview with TMZ, calling out the controversial comedian for deflecting and doubling-down in lieu of a direct, sincere apology.

“Louis C.K. can improve or apologize for his words. I think a simple apology would be a good start. He’s never apologized for any of the words that he’s said — kind of just brushed it off,” Eastmond, a junior at the time of the shooting who reportedly had to play dead beneath classmates' corpses to hide from the gunman, told TMZ via video chat.

“Some advice would give Louis C.K. is just to be cognizant of people’s experiences and their emotions and how that can really affect them. Because, at the end of the day, what happened at my school is not something that anybody should joke about, and it’s not his experience to make it OK to joke about it," the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School graduate said. "It would’ve been a little bit different if it was somebody from my school talking about it, but seeing that it was a complete outsider trying to make light of what happened was completely inappropriate.”

She also had words for those who continue to support the comedian, despite his biting, inconsiderate irreverence.

“I do think if people attend they are supporting his harmful words, and if we show him that that’s not OK, he will stop using those types of jokes,” she said.

Although C.K. has not commented on this matter or issued an apology, he did reportedly find time to update his website, adding a statement to the homepage on Friday, November, 1, just in time for the launch of his comedy tour.

"Hey. Hello. I am on the road doing professional stand-up comedy. Which consists of sharing jokes, stories, observations, lies, non-lies, and being generally ridiculous for the benefit of a laughing audience," the statement reads.

What this suggests about his emotional intelligence and capacity for compassion — you be the judge.
