“ ‘Until the events of last night. I cannot express how wrong I was. We actually have members of our crew with CHL licenses, and legal firearms on the bus. They were useless.’ ”

That’s what country music guitarist Caleb Keeter, a self-proclaimed proponent of the 2nd Amendment his entire life, had to say in the wake of the Las Vegas shooting that killed at least 58 people and injured more than 500.

“We need gun control RIGHT. NOW,” Keeter continued. “My biggest regret is that I stubbornly didn’t realize it until my brothers on the road and myself were threatened by it.”
