Conservative Parkland shooting survivor Kyle Kashuv was questioned by school security after he visited a shooting range with his father.
Kashuv posted videos of his day at the range. One of the videos showed him shooting an AR-style rifle:

Kashuv praised the Second Amendment and the instructor who guided him at the range:
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

Kashuv’s social media posts made the rounds and, upon returning to school, he quickly realized he had drawn the ire of security personnel–including members of the Broward County Sheriff’s Office. He told The Daily Wire that he was called out of class after the range visit and questioned by school security:
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 didn’t 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 Sheriff’s 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, “Don’t 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.
On April 20 Kashuv countered the anti-gun school walk out with a pro-gun event focused on solutions to school security that do not infringe on the Second Amendment. He appeared as a guest on Breitbart News’ ‘“Bullets with AWR Hawkins” discussing his conviction that Republican lawmakers must quit playing defense and “grow the Second Amendment.”

At his age I belonged to the high school shooting team I helped start and the board of education approved and budgeted it. This was in Hempstead High School Long Island N.Y. early 70’s, figure out WTF happened between then and now with anti gun hysteria. Even the teachers were cool about guns, they had to sign the petition!
This is completely unacceptable! If I were that boy’s father, I would be at the school getting the face of those Jack booted thugs. Then I would pay the little coward sheriff a visit and tell him his deputies are out of control.
Is this the student poster child the joos have chosen to lead the pro-2Article defense?
We don’t need one and I’d never trust one of them or anyone else for that matter to defend it, because its UNALIENABLE. I think he’s a kosher sock puppet, propped up just like the hogg, so people are forced to debate on the rigged home team field advantage. (my 2c)
“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.”
I’d have gone far beyond rude…
“SINCE WHEN IS IT ANY OF YOUR F%&KING BUSINESS WHAT I DO ON MY OWN TIME, @SSHOLES?????”
Then I’d have waited for them afterwards with my AR-15 STYLE ‘assault weapon’.
COMMIE FAGGOTS!!!!!
