Gun-grabbing father of Alison Parker on all channels praising Obama and demanding "gun control"
August 28, 2015

This is disgusting. He just said both liberal democrat US senators in VA helped him when he ran for office and he helped them and he's disappointed they have not call him and called for more gun legislation. Then he says Obama can do something about guns because his hero got a deal with Iran passed, got healthcare for everyone, blah, blah, blah. I am getting sick and tired of seeing this liberal gun grabber on cable 24/7. He needs to take some and grieve his daughter who was just murdered. If Hillary Clinton is elected she's got a job waiting for him.

THE FATHER IS PRAISING THE TRUE CAUSE OF HIS DAUGHTER'S MURDER.

Or not. Could be he's just following his assigned script.

Everyone said how “Christian” they are all, but the sissy looking boyfriend got on tweeter about an hour after she was murdered and told the world they had just started shaking up. He said it was a secret and no one knew.But he decides to tarnish her reputation and tell the world they had started shacking and “were planning on getting married”. Nothing about this murder makes any sense. And how in the world did the perp stand 4 feet from her holding a Glock 9, pointed straight at her and none of the three noticed him? Then the father, no sooner than her body was zipped up in plastic bag, goes on every cable outlet in the country and starts hollering for gun control.

I'm going with the rainbow flag as they apparently found one in his apartment. Ban the rainbow flag!

Exactly, he also stated that he wants to get a gun. Right now that dude does not need a gun especially since he is unstable due to his mourning. His reason for getting a gun - “I’m in the media” HUH?

What a POS, using his daughter’s tragic murder to gain publicity for himself before she’s even in the ground. A democRAT for sure.

“Homosexual with a racist, victimhood chip on his shoulder having his hate fueled by the leftist media”

had a lot more to do with his daughter’s death than

“gun”.

I saw his comments yesterday and just a few minutes ago. Pretty sad...

The gun control fanatics started coming out of the woodwork before these people were even cold.

I can sympathize with his loss, I lost a best friend a couple of years ago to cancer and a woman I might have married to a drunk driver in the 80’s. I’m not out pushing for a band on cars...It hurts, and it takes time to even begin to come to grips with it. There’s this big empty hole in your soul that nothing will fill. Not easy to describe, and impossible to understand unless you’ve been there yourself.

But more gun control will not solve anything.

I love gun control actually...but to me gun control is hitting your target.

If this guy had no access to guns, he would have used another weapon, same as every other crazy in the world will do. Take away guns, they will get knives, take away knives they will use rocks...

I heard Trump last night put his finger on it. It’s not a gun problem its a mental problem. (paraphrased, not his exact words). I’ve known that for years. It’s a social problem. A psychological problem.

What gun grabbers refuse to admit is this. Guns do not kill, people do. The only way a gun can kill a person is for another person to pick it up and pull the trigger, period. The gun is not the problem, the person holding it is. Charles Manson’s followers were the focus of another thread, one of them is up for parole again. The knives they used didn’t do a thing until they picked them up and started stabbing. Yes I realize a gun was also used. Same thing. Someone had to pull the trigger.

How many people were killed in this world by swords, clubs and spears for thousands of years before guns were invented? Look into history a little...just the Bible actually, how many wars were described? And it was not just wars, they had to deal with highway robbers, murders in the cities, random senseless killings...this is far from a new problem, ever heard of Jack the Ripper? He used a knife by the way...

This is a case of a maniac losing it, gun control will not stop that. We do need to work on finding out ways to spot it before it boils over, but that’s really difficult. Thousands of people are roaming around with troubled lives right now and 99.999% of them will never hurt a fly. Just the fact that someone is emotionally unstable does not mean that person will go out and shoot a dozen people at a shopping mall one day. Or show up and do some thing like this to people they know. And gun control will not do a thing to solve the problem...

I could go on...I’ll get off my soapbox though...

Again...a gun cannot and will not kill anyone until another person pulls the trigger. Gun control will not help a thing. well, unless you call gun control hitting your target...

Oh and I’m glad someone else caught that, (sorry, can’t remember who), WHILE trying to shame politicians into pushing for gun control he said he would have to go out and buy a gun...how’s that for a double standard?

I watched Newsmax TV last night. It wasn't half bad. Very low budget but that's ok.

My wife wanted to know how much money Newsmax saves by not spending on wonder Bra's, high heels, lipstick, hairdressers, makeup artists, hair extensions, lip gloss, and leg crossing checkers?

Speaking of the Bergdahl fiasco, any word on his court martial yet?

The father is practicing his religion.

Which is...?

I ask because the Parker family may be Jewish. For some bizarre reason too many liberal Jews support disarming everyone despite how well that worked out for them 70 years ago.

It's also possible that Vester Flanagan knew this and was also acting on an anti-Semitic hatred against Alison.

Questions for this father you won’t hear:

“How long will you continue this unseemly exploitation of your daughters death to bolster your own ambitions and beliefs?”

“How much do you blame your daughter for the racism the killer is claiming he was a victim of? She was targeted for some reason. Why?”

“What would your cause be if he ran them down with his car in a parking lot? Do we need a national conversation on cars?”

Regardless of the perps motives, the fathers praise is incredibly misdirected at Obama.
My thought is he chooses to praise the false idol of government intervention.
We know that the left worships big government.
That is the religion I was referring to.

Well the father is basically out of his own mind trying to contend with press, Governors and politically motivated people trying to lead him.

I'm fast loosing any respect for him or his family and those who are obviously advising him.... who should be telling him to shut up and stay out of the media. His anger is next and already seeing evidence of.

As we well know the “Left” will always seize on the losses of others to drive they're political agenda......this one is the “hot” one of the moment. Zero respect in the face of life or death...it's all the same for the “Left”. Despicable creatures indeed!

This was a hate crime, and the perp admitted to bring enraged by hateful leftist rhetoric. There should be appropriate hand wringing about toning down the hateful leftist hate rhetoric and banning the flag of the shooter’s cause which many now find offensive.

He wants to have a legacy for her, do something so he doesn’t feel like she’s died in vain. I understand that. I also heard Terry McAwful open his big mouth immediately on gun control & when reporters asked him if he knew the details about how the shooter got his gun, etc. he had to admit he didn’t know. He’s an opporunistic, Leftist ghoul. McAwful has been offering sympathy & support to dad & I’m sure he’s offered more than that ..... encouraged the gun control talk, etc. I said before in another post, I’ll give dad a “pass” for a short while because I’m sure he’s not firing on all cylinders right now - Alison is not even buried yet. But if he keeps on with this after a month or two, the pass will be revoked pronto.

I thought this was a racial problem, black in white crime. This black guy wanted to start a race war and MURDERED two white people...why are we hearing about everything EXCEPT that? (The gun did it, then he was nuts, then his mother mistreated him,,,egads!) and since this is reverse if Charleston, I want my flag back!!!

“Or like someone who knew ahead of the event and had time to get his anti-Second Amendment pitch ready to go when needed. “

I swear the knee-jerk lockstep attitudes of these people is incredible. Something happens to them and the immediately drop into “party-line message” mode.
