On August 30, Andy Parker, the father of slain WDBJ reporter Alison Parker, indicated he has already been in contact with Mark Kelly and with associates of Michael Bloomberg to get his best trajectory for a gun control push.

THIS IS SO SAD................
I think I can understand his motivation given that he’s in shock and feels the need to do something...anything. The worst of grief ...for a lost child.
A guy I work with is from Brazil. He said the drug cartels wanted gun control and got it. Now you can’t even go out to dinner without either a body guard or leaving your valuables at home.
The guy is trying really to cash in on his daughters death. I guess his acting career must have peaked.
“I am embarrassed for this bereft father. He is so blinded by the anger of losing his child that he is allowing himself to be used by the gun control pimps.”
I doubt its being “blinded by anger”. This guy probably already had a pro-gun control agenda, and now has a means to voice it and exercise it.
Doesn’t every psychopath planning a murder fully comply with all gun laws on the books? Surely that would prevent most all violence, right?
I’m not sure that is the case. I was stunned by the speed with which he raced to the cameras to denounce guns. His daughter’s body was still at the M.E.s and daddy was out there howling for NRA blood. From his tone and comments, I wouldn’t be surprised to find he was a long time contributor to Bloomberg-Brady et al. And that the phone lines were lit up between him and them the night of the killings. What a difference between him and the families of those poor people in Charleston. They asked for forgiveness, he demanded government control.
Maybe someone should pass a law. That’ll work.
Sooooooooooooo......the father of an MSM reporter is a leftist?
How can this be ?
Apple-——tree?
I do not know but would like to find out if the facility where these murders took place was a "Gun Free" zone. Would one more violation make this better or worse for this grieving Father?
Therrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre ya go !
Yes, he does.
It’s really sick to use your daughter’s corpse to promote legislation designed to cause the loss of more innocent lives.
Is his daughter even in the ground yet? What a POS.
Expensive call. Mark Kelly is on the International Space Station. Or is that his twin brother ?
Twin brother.
Hey if he can control STOLEN or guns obtained Illegally I’m for it too:-)
His twin. I believe margabby is now a former astronaut but currently holds the position of ASStronaught.
It’s ironic that he is supporting the very measures which helped get his daughter killed and will lead to others being killed by other criminals.
That is the liberal insanity.
I think the new definition of insanity is “lending any credibility to liberal blather”.
