Congress Woman shot

[theking]

...along with staff members at a public event. Few details at this point.

She was a congress woman from Arizona and was shot at an event in Tucson.

[theking]

It is being reported that 3 staff members were also shot. The status of the congress woman and staff members has not been reported at this time other than they had been taken to the hospital.

[Amputate Your Head]

they probably deserved it.

It is now being reported that 12 people have been shot...but early reports are almost always wrong.

[st0ned]

Holy shit, that is a 10 minute drive from my house.

[Davy]

Probably ordered by Obama.

They just changed the first sentence to say:

U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords of Arizona was shot in the head outside a grocery store in Tucson while holding a public event, Arizona Public Media reported Saturday.

Fucking crazy. I am almost tempted to go drive down and see the madness.

a few things about Giffords-
pro solar energy
was against the auto bailout
against privatizing social security
strong on border security

so arizona people whats the real deal?

sounds like she was playing both sides of the fence with a lean on the left, but was she involved in something recently?

plenty of whackos around or it could easily be an op

edit- upon seeing that graphic....health care issue bingo

According to Tucson Citizen, Rep. Giffords was shot "point blank in the head."

[Deputy Chief Command]

Wow, that is crazy.

They are saying now that she might not be dead.

[MaDalton]

[BIGTYMER]

How sad. I was wondering what was going on. I saw copters in the air.

[Mr Happy]

They are trying to cover this up so it does not get wheels across the nation.

May spark the rest of the country to take a stand

"A hospital spokeswoman tells MSNBC that Giffords is alive, still in surgery."

MSNBC says a surgeon on the scene claims that Giffords is still alive, in critical condition.

"target - Gabriell Giffords - shoot - m16 - automatic"

But they just reported on KVOA that shes dead... hmm.

[Mutt]

that's sick, and yeah i think this might be a spark that ignites worse - many of these Tea Party wackjobs want a civil war and sadly there are many rich fat Republicans who have egged them on and will continue to from the safety of their gated communities.

i'm no fan of socialism or the far left, they are dangerous in other ways BUT what liberals do is never out of malice, they may be misguided and naive but they mean no harm - cannot be said for the other side.

[TeenCat]

oh that is sad very sad, not a nice world ...

[Caligari]

CNN, Reuters & NPR no longer report that Giffords is dead.

Way to buy into the lies. Most riots started in the world are by leftist.

[beerptrol]

I guess we'll have to wait for the hospital to hold a news conference. But it doesnt look good being shotpoint blank in the head
