Official synopsis here and spoilers I guess, so here's just the first paragraph:
Kick-Ass, Hit Girl and Red Mist return for the follow-up to 2010's irreverent global hit: Kick-Ass 2. After Kick-Ass' (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) insane bravery inspires a new wave of self-made masked crusaders, led by the badass Colonel Stars and Stripes (Jim Carrey), our hero joins them on patrol. When these amateur superheroes are hunted down by Red Mist (Christopher Mintz-Plasse) — reborn as The Mother F%&*^r — only the blade-wielding Hit Girl (Chloë Grace Moretz) can prevent their annihilation.
But of course.

he had a couple of nice emails, there's gonna be some scene with dozens of kids in home-made superhero outfits or something, but sadly he's not 16 yet so they couldn't use him

From IMDb:
Perhaps having just gotten around to watching the Kick-Ass 2 trailer, Jim Carrey tweeted some reservations on Sunday evening. "I did Kickass a month b4 Sandy Hook and now in all good conscience I cannot support that level of violence," he wrote. "I meant to say my apologies to others involve with the film. I am not ashamed of it but recent events have caused a change in my heart." Mark Millar, creator of the Kick-Ass comics as well as executive producer of the films, almost immediately shared a lot of thoughts on his website. Millar was ecstatic for Carrey — "an actor like no other, an unpredictable force of nature who brings a layered warmth and humanity to his work as well as that unstoppable energy" — to join the film, and praises Carrey's performance as Col. Stars and Stripes.
I know there is a history of these kinds of things--Kubrick pulling Clockwork Orange from release comes to mind--but this is not the kind of stance I would ever expect a major star to take in 2013.
