Students and parents walked out of a planned vigil for the victims of a shooting at a Colorado high school after they say the memorial became political, 9 News reported.

Police said Castillo died trying to stop one of the armed suspects from firing, allowing his classmates time to escape.

“This was not a vigil,” one student said, according to 9 News. “This was purely a political stunt. This is not what we wanted for Kendrick.”

Another student reportedly said they didn’t want their fallen classmate to become a “prop.”

Brady campaign using victims as props to talk about gun control, who saw that one coming?

The Brady campaign later issued an apology...

Hopefully this becomes a trend.

Brady campaign/Moms Demand using dead children as political props?

Of course, but notice how fast this one got buried. I believe it was because of the shooters traits, it didn't alignment to the left's fear mongering and narrative. I certainly don't want unending coverage about school shootings, because I believe that is one of the factors that brings the nuts out. But damn, I would love to pop the left and Anti-guns crowd over these criminals positions.

Shooting? What shooting? The main issue here is which pronouns to use when murderers appear in court. Apologies to Monty Python ... "Let's not worry about who killed who. This is supposed to be a happy occasion!"

According to the Denver Post, some of the students who walked out of the vigil on Wednesday night were chanting “mental health.”

I think this is one of the most significant events we have seen occur to take the air out of the anti-gun balloon. We should do everything possible to keep bringing this up.

I hope the chant of "Mental Health" is heard more.

Be careful what you wish for. Just like the general population, the vast majority of people with mental problems are more likely to be victims of violence rather than perpetrators. "Mental Health" is Bloomturd's rallying cry behind all of the Extremely Risky Confiscation Order laws that are being pushed everywhere right now. In some cases they come right out and say that purchasing a firearm is an indication of mental instability, Red Flag here we come. That new pistol you just bought turns into $20,000 in legal costs.

These people are truly disgusting. But then again, politicizing these tragic school shootings while the bodies are still warm have become the norm for these a$$holes....
