Civil rights group: 2nd Amendment opponents owe nation apology

Anti-gun activists and politicians who said they were staging a “vigil” at a Colorado school to honor STEM Highlands Ranch student Kendrick Castillo, 18, who died in a shooting this week, turned it into an anti-gun rally.

They’ve apologized to the students, whose grief was exploited in pursuit of a political agenda.

But a civil rights organization says that should be just the beginning.

“Wednesday’s vigil was supposed to honor the heroic sacrifice of 18-year-old Kendrick Castillo and to support other students who were injured, and give students a chance to speak from their hearts,” said Alan Gottlieb, chairman of the citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms.

“Instead, it turned into a backdrop for gun control grandstanding. That was both appalling and insulting, not just to those in attendance, but every Second Amendment citizen whose rights are routinely blamed after such a horrific incident.”

Castillo died, his classmates say, while rushing a gunman.

After the attack, the anti-gun Brady Campaign and others, including Colorado Democratic Sen. Michael Bennet, took over the school for a vigil.

The event turned political and students got up and walked out en masse.

The Brady campaign later “expressed sorrow” for the development.

But the Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms said the Brady Campaign should “apologize to all American gun owners for allowing the attempted exploitation to happen.”

Hope Citizens for the Right To Keep and Bear Arms ain't holding it's breath. The only thing the brady bunch is sorry for is that it got shown they were called out and busted trying to once again politicize a tragic event and "mere" kids did it to them. They will NEVER apologize for the continued attempt to infringe on supposedly guaranteed rights.

Jason Crow is a disgusting POS who turned his back on his oath to defend the Constitution to get elected on “common sense gun control”.

I think he also turned his back on the Ranger Creed, which to real Rangers is more important than the Oath. Remember the guy from West Point with the Che shirt? He was a Ranger.

In my time, I saw plenty of Marines who had no business being there.

Crow is like Kerry, just checked off a box for a political future.
