Andy Parker, the father of slain WDBJ journalist Alison Parker, is demanding that politicians restrict access to firearms, saying he will personally become a crusader for this issue if need be. 

“If I have to be the John Walsh of gun control and — look, I’m for the Second Amendment, but there has to be a way to force politicians that are cowards and in the pockets of the NRA to come to grips and make sense — have sensible laws so that crazy people can’t get guns. It can’t be that hard,” said Parker in an interview with CNN’s “New Day.” 

Walsh created “America’s Most Wanted” and became a prominent victims’ rights advocate after his son was murdered in 1981.

A man described as a disgruntled former colleague gunned down a reporter and cameraman on live television Wednesday morning in Virginia, then posted video of the deadly attack to social media before shooting himself, authorities said.

The suspect, described by the station that fired him as “an unhappy man,” turned the gun on himself hours later, according to federal officials. State police said the suspected gunman was in “very critical condition” but “has a pulse,” WDBJ7 reported.

The gruesome events began to unfold as WDBJ7 correspondent Alison Parker conducted an on-air interview at around 6:45 a.m. at a shopping center in Moneta, Virginia.
