Darci Slaten, a public information officer at University Medical Center, tells CNN that Giffords and nine others are in surgery. Slaten says that Giffords "is currently in surgery for a gunshot wound to the head."

Wow, point blank in the head? That's terrible. Even if she miraculously lives, it's not gonna be an easy life. Terrible stuff.
I also hate to say this....but the posts in this thread has been pretty funny. Now I feel bad.

"My sincere condolences are offered to the family of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and the other victims of today's tragic shooting in Arizona.
On behalf of Todd and my family, we all pray for the victims and their families, and for peace and justice."
From Sarah Palin.

From the wikipedia page: "Kelly shot his wife dead because she wanted to abort his unborn baby in her womb of 12 weeks." |

Has anyone investigated possible involvement by the Bilderbergs or CFR?

What is with the part that says he killed his wife? "Kelly shot his wife dead because she wanted to abort his unborn baby in her womb of 12 weeks." Seems like some sick Wikipedia user. |

From the wikipedia page: "Kelly shot his wife dead because she wanted to abort his unborn baby in her womb of 12 weeks." I read "unborn baby" as "unicorn baby." Now I'm disappointed. |

Her father Spencer Giffords, 75, wept when asked if his 40-year-old daughter had any enemies. "Yeah," he told The Post. "The whole tea party."  |

If this is a tea party motivated killing, Palin's presidential hopes die with the Congresswoman.

Has anyone investigated possible involvement by the Bilderbergs or CFR? It sure doesn't hurt to have some additional anti-2nd amendment / terrorism propaganda, does it? |

"We live in a society of violence where the the gun is deified." Truer words have never been said. I can honestly say I've never touched a gun and have gotten along fine in life.

It's true. There is an obsession for guns in the United States and clearly, several are not responsible enough to own one.

If Giffords dies, so does ANY hope Palin has at making a run at President. The fact she did the "target" gimmick and named names is pathetic. She had to have known some of these political nutjobs out there would try something like this when she said she was "targeting" them.

I think we can all agree here that the gun is 100% responsible for this crime therefore all guns should be banned.
