United States News Title: Cops Accost Pro-2nd Amendment Parkland Survivor Over Gun Range Photos Parkland school shooting survivor Kyle Kashuv says he was aggressively interrogated by police after social media posts showed he visited a gun range. On Friday, Kashuv who does not prescribe to the anti-gun rhetoric of his fellow anti-Second Amendment #NeverAgain peers wrote he was learning to fire a gun for the first time. It was great learning about our inalienable right of #2A and how to properly use a gun. This was my first time ever touching a gun and it made me appreciate the #Constitution even more. My instructor was very informative; I learnt a lot. #2A is important and we need 2 preserve 2A pic.twitter.com/4rcOZbpl88 Kyle Kashuv (@KyleKashuv) April 21, 2018 It was great learning about our inalienable right of #2A and how to properly use a gun. This was my first time ever touching a gun and it made me appreciate the #Constitution even more, he tweeted, indicating in other posts he was there with his father. My instructor was very informative; I learnt a lot. #2A is important and we need 2 preserve 2A. Other posts showed Kashuv firing an AR-15 and an instructor teaching him how to fire. Kyle Kashuv (@KyleKashuv) April 21, 2018 Facts matter. I wish the facts of guns were more known. We need to educate the public and show them why they NEED the 2A. pic.twitter.com/HzjEx9LH2r Kyle Kashuv (@KyleKashuv) April 21, 2018 "A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." pic.twitter.com/mfVRATZ4DT Kyle Kashuv (@KyleKashuv) April 21, 2018 When he returned to school Monday he was ordered to the principals office, where he was informed that other students had been upset by his posts, according to The Daily Wire. In a statement to The Wire, Kashuv described meeting with the armed campus resource officer, being questioned aggressively by a member of the Broward County Sheriffs Office and said police repeatedly referred to him as the pro-Second Amendment kid. Near the end of third period, my teacher got a call from the office saying I need to go down and see a Mr. Greenleaf. I didnt know Mr. Greenleaf, but it turned out that he was an armed school resource officer. I went down and found him, and he escorted me to his office. Then a second security officer walked in and sat behind me. Both began questioning me intensely. First, they began berating my tweet, although neither of them had read it; then they began aggressively asking questions about who I went to the range with, whose gun we used, about my father, etc. They were incredibly condescending and rude. Then a third officer from the Broward County Sheriffs Office walked in, and began asking me the same questions again. At that point, I asked whether I could record the interview. They said no. I asked if I had done anything wrong. Again, they answered no. I asked why I was there. One said, Dont get snappy with me, do you not remember what happened here a few months ago? They continued to question me aggressively, though they could cite nothing I had done wrong. They kept calling me the pro-Second Amendment kid. I was shocked and honestly, scared. It definitely felt like they were attempting to intimidate me. I was treated like a criminal for no reason other than having gone to the gun range and posted on social media about it. The Broward County Sheriffs office did not respond to Daily Wires request for comment. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top Page Up Full Thread Page Down Bottom/Latest

The Coward County Sheriffs department has lost all credibility. Unlike them, this kid has a gun and knows how to use it. Maybe that's what bothers them. They may hide behind trees, cars and buildings* when a teen has a gun, but when he's unarmed they're all over him. *The deputies who were among the first to arrive to the scene of the Florida school massacre were found taking cover behind their cars and a nearby tree and had no idea where the gunman was, according to an official report released Tuesday.
