The father of a student killed in the Parkland school shooting has some words for Kid Rock.

The musician recently shot up three cases of Bud Light in a video in response to the company's use of transgender activist and TikTok star Dylan Mulvaney as its newest brand ambassador.

"Grandpa is feeling a little frisky today. Let me say something to all you and be as clear and concise as possible," Kid Rock says into the camera before firing a barrage of bullets into the beer. "F**k Bud Light and f**k Anheuser-Busch! Have a terrific day."

The video has been viewed more than 10.4 million times.

Fred Guttenberg, a vocal activist against gun violence, took to Twitter in response to Kid Rock's video -- in which he uses a semi-automatic weapon -- with an image taken from surveillance video of the shooting that took his daughter's life.

"Let me be 'as clear and concise' as I can with you," Guttenberg tweeted, mocking Kid Rock's words. "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. F**K YOU!!!"

Guttenberg's daughter was among 17 people killed in 2018 at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, in the deadliest school shooting in America. Since the tragedy, Guttenberg has been a vocal campaigner for gun-control.

Guttenberg's post triggered comments from several people who agreed that there is no need for civilians to own assault rifles. At the same time, some gun enthusiasts defended the right to own assault weapons, noting that it was the shooter who killed Guttenberg's daughter, not the firearm.

Kid Rock has not responded to Guttenberg's post.
