In the video she recorded, Parlak said the following, stating that she was not encouraging the use of weapons:
"I also have different interests, like cars and houses. What can we do, everyone has a hobby. I waited a long time for this day, too. I must just state that my weapon is licensed, but I am not encouraging anyone to use weapons. Everyone has different curiosities; some watch movies like crazy, others are interested in different hobbies. Mine is a hobby like this, too. It is even empty inside right now, we just like it"
