Activist Fred Guttenberg sent a message to Kid Rock loud and clear, complete with a powerful two-word sign-off.
Guttenberg—whose daughter Jamie was among the 17 killed in the Parkland school shooting in 2018—did not take the rocker's recent violent video rant lightly.
Earlier this week, a MAGA-capped Rock expressed his disgust with Bud Light's new partnership with trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney and documented his tantrum in a video.
He started by saying:
"Grandpa's feeling a little frisky today."
"Let me say something to all you and let me be as clear and concise as possible."
Rock then unloaded an assault rifle on cases of Bud Light before shouting:
"F**k Bud Light and f**k Anheuser-Busch."

Upon seeing the video, Guttenberg had his own message to send.
The activist against gun violence displayed an image of the scene after the Parkland shooting and used Rock's words to drive his point home.
He wrote:
"Hey @KidRock, this dad is 'feeling a little frisky today.'"
"Let me be 'as clear and concise' as I can with you."
"This is my daughter Jaime (under the black oval) and these are the students running over her for safety to avoid getting shot by the AR 15 that killed her."
Guttenberg finished with an all-caps:
"F**K YOU!!!"

Many responded to Guttenberg's tweet acknowledging the difficulty and heartbreak he must endure when he sees videos such as Rock's.

\u201c@fred_guttenberg @KidRock I am so very sorry, you and your family are always in my prayers. I\u2019m sorry you have to continue to relive this trauma because people continue to minimize and refuse to do what needs to be done to prevent another parent having this pain.\u201d— Fred Guttenberg (@Fred Guttenberg) 1680609960

\u201c@fred_guttenberg @KidRock My heart breaks for you and Jaime, @fred_guttenberg \nI cannot imagine how you feel, but I can support you feeling it. Strength to you.\u201d— Fred Guttenberg (@Fred Guttenberg) 1680609960
\u201c@fred_guttenberg @KidRock I can't begin to imagine the pain you, your family and the other families are going through.\nMy thoughts are with you all.\nAllowing this to continue is utter madness.\u201d— Fred Guttenberg (@Fred Guttenberg) 1680609960
\u201c@fred_guttenberg @TheJimCornette @KidRock So sorry for your loss! These shootings are becoming more common and something needs to be done!\u201d— Fred Guttenberg (@Fred Guttenberg) 1680609960
\u201c@fred_guttenberg @KidRock My heart breaks for your loss. I do admire you for staying true to your course. Absolutely no need for those weapons.\u201d— Fred Guttenberg (@Fred Guttenberg) 1680609960
Others argued with gun enthusiasts, expressing there is absolutely no need for a civilian to own an assault rifle.
\u201c@dbcooper7566 @fred_guttenberg @KidRock It's a submachine gun that fires about 800 rounds per minute. There is no need for a gun like that in the hands of a civilian.\u201d— Fred Guttenberg (@Fred Guttenberg) 1680609960
\u201c@dbcooper7566 @fred_guttenberg @KidRock I think it illustrates \nThe complete lack of necessity for a weapon like that\nin the hands of a civilian\n\nThat\nIs why\nKid Rock has a 'right'\nTo THAT sort of weapon?\n\nTo shoot beer in his back yard?\n\nReally?\u201d— Fred Guttenberg (@Fred Guttenberg) 1680609960
\u201c@fred_guttenberg @KidRock How sad it is that many parents love their guns more than their kids\u201d— Fred Guttenberg (@Fred Guttenberg) 1680609960
This isn't the first time Guttenberg pubically called out gun enthusiasts on social media, either.
After the Nashville school shooting that killed six people last month, he also blasted Republican Tennessee Congressman Andy Ogles over his family's Christmas card which featured an image of he and his family members posing with guns.
\u201cThe tragedy of the latest mass shooting is listening to Tennessee politicians who refuse to call it a shooting but who engaged in behavior that caused this to be more likely when they glorify guns. Tennessee Rep @AndyOgles, is this you with your family?\u201d— Fred Guttenberg (@Fred Guttenberg) 1679946644
Keep fighting the good fight. Something has to change...
