A musician who performed at the Route 91 Harvest Festival in Las Vegas said he has changed his mind about gun control after the mass shooting on Sunday night.
Caleb Keeter, a guitarist for The John Abbott Band who performed just hours before 59 people were killed and more than 500 injured in the worst mass shooting in modern American history, posted a statement to Twitter Monday proclaiming he now believed in stricter gun control laws after the massacre.
“I’ve been a proponent of the 2nd Amendment my entire life,” Keeter said. “Until the events of last night. I cannot express how wrong I was. We actually have members of our crew with CHL license, and legal firearms on the bus.
“They were useless.”
Keeter went on to explain that he and other members of his group chose not to retrieve their guns, as they thought that would only make the situation worse and more confusing for law enforcement.
“We couldn’t touch them for fear police might think that we were part of the massacre and shoot us. A small group (or one man) laid waste to a city with dedicated, fearless police officers
