Barbara said she never thought this would happen to her.
"But when it did, we realized we had to speak out," Parker said.
Now, a year after her daughter's death, Barbara said she is spending a lot of her time advocating for stricter gun laws.
"There's a culture in our country now among our legislatures that it's collateral damage, it's acceptable," Parker said. "But it's not acceptable to us." |

| Then she should be advocating Eddie Eagle in her neighbor elementary school, as well as safety training courses for everyone. America will never have fewer guns or fewer shooting sports than it does now. |

TO REMEMBER |
| [The American Colonies were] all democratic governments, where the power is in the hands of the people and where there is not the least difficulty or jealousy about putting arms into the hands of every man in the country. [European countries should not] be ignorant of the strength and the force of such a form of government and how strenuously and almost wonderfully people living under one have sometimes exerted themselves in defence of their rights and liberties and how fatally it has ended with many a man and many a state who have entered into quarrels, wars and contests with them. — George Mason, "Remarks on Annual Elections for the Fairfax Independent Company" in The Papers of George Mason, 1725-1792, ed Robert A. Rutland (Chapel Hill, 1970). |
