This is terrible but I'll say this, when our politicians repeatedly show themselves to not only be unresponsive but downright hostile to the will of the people, this is the kind of thing that will happen. There are lots and lots of crazy people out there and politics will make them even crazier.

What will of the people was Giffords hostile towards as it related to this specific shooter POS?

Tend to agree with Cossatotjoe_redux, sad but probably very true.

radio in Arizona reporting 10 at the hospital, 5 in critical condition, including Giffords, Giffords was "shot through and through" the brain, is in critical condition, and the surgeon says the next 24 hours will tell the tale.
Also, one child and one federal judge are stated to have died.

A democrat who supported stronger border security and the 2nd amendment. Too bad there aren't more like her. It would appear that she was AGAINST Arizona SB 1070.

In my county, the last election wiped out all the encumbants and put Republicans in offices THAT HAD NEVER, in the 175 year history of the county been held by Republicans. When people are pissed, the crazies do stuff like this. Expect more of it as things get worse.

[Updated at 4:07 p.m. ET] Rep. Gabriella Gifford is in critical condition and a young child has died after a shooting at a political meeting at an Arizona grocery store, a hospital spokesman said Saturday.
Gifford, who was hosting the event, is under anesthesia after undergoing surgery for a single gunshot wound to the head, said Dr. Peter Rhee, Trauma Director at the University Medical Center in Tucson.
"The Congresswoman is not deceased. She is in critical condition," Rhee said in a press conference. "I am very optimistic about recovery."

I'm saying nothing more controversial than that there are lot of pissed off people out there right now and some of them are crazy.

I understand your pitch but was Giffords the first person shot? Was she even the intended primary target?
And, a 22 year old psycho is hardly the political victim and he certainly is not a credible spokesperson or arbiter for the will of the people being downtrodden by politicians.

Foxbat,
I don't presume you are a moron, just because you have posted some dumb things today. They were so dumb even I won't bother refuting them.
Giffords is probably the most moderate of the Democrat Congressman in Arizona. If she is replaced, it WILL be by someone more liberal. She is the wife of an active duty service member. She is moderate for her District.
I NEVER thought I'd see the day when a Democratic Tucson congressman stuck up for the Second Amendment.

He is crazy, obviously, but the overall mood of the country is extremely pissed right now. When the mood is like that, crazy people get crazier.

True, it may have been the judge.... If you watch the purported Youtube made by the shooter, it is mainly aimed at Government control and repeatedly refers to controlling ones own currency and using gold instead of U.S. currency. IF this is really his, it is going to be spun right at the Tea Party by the left. http://shortformblog.com/culture/jared-loughner-youtube-videos/

Fox News currently saying his "favorite books" Mein Kompf" -Hitler; "Communist Manifesto".
Last post on "MySpace" was "Goodbye friends".
Sounds like a nut job for sure.
He was upset about our currency not being backed by gold, and the "illiteracy of the people in district 8".
