I hope none of the dead or wounded were hit by a citizen returning fire.
That would add a lot of problems.

Now FOX is saying they have no records of the guy being a veteran- go figure that rumor would be leak immediately without confirmation.

A seriously mentally ill man shot some people. And a politician and a judge too--don't forget them.
"But whether the Constitution really be one thing, or another, this much is certain--that it has either authorized such a government as we have had, or has been powerless to prevent it. In either case, it is unfit to exist." --Lysander Spooner, 1867

Whatever "motive" he may have had came from the other side of the rabbit hole.
He's just a nut. That's all there is to say about it. =========== Yes sir!

I doubt the guy is in ANY way connected to any right wing, tea party or Military organization.
The video on Youtube of him burning a US flag is pretty much a dead giveaway.
The reading material he lists is also a clue.
I'm betting this guy is pretty much a lone nut-job.

Go join Democratic Underground and you can participate in the discussions that say he sounds like *everybody* on here. The difference between you and them is only a matter of degree.

the suspect appears to be in custody.
hopefully he'll be better protected by the Custodians than the Kennedy Assasin was. Yeah, that was my first thought???

Eyewitness (an MD) account: Giffords was shot from about 2 feet away. Still, she was sitting up and was responsive. The witness describes Loughner as about 6 feet tall, 150 pounds. Witness denies that anyone returned fire. One of Gifford's aides tackled the shooter, several of them separated him from his firearm and held him down, while a female bystander removed the magazine from the weapon. Hope she cleared the chamber as well.
Be not weary in well doing.

He certainly doesn't have the look of your typical pro gun person.

My buddy just called me, his buddy's buddy in LE in AZ said the shooter used a Glock 45 with a 30 round clip.
Gifford was hit in the temple and the the bullet exited her forhead. Man, she was lucky!

Glock 45 with a 30 round clip. A 30 round clip on a Glock? I've never heard of such a thing. Brian.

Palin listed Giffords' seat as one of the top "targets" in the midterm elections because of the lawmakers' support for the health care law.
"For example, we're on Sarah Palin's targeted list, but the thing is, that the way that she has it depicted has the crosshairs of a gun sight over our district. When people do that, they have to realize that there are consequences to that action," Giffords said in an interview with msnbc.

Msnbc makes Sarah Palin sound like a killer..Shocker huh -this came from my yahoo homepage.

My prayers go out to all those involved and their family's. This isn't the way to go about making changes, but like so many others I'm wondering what the after effects of this is going to be...
A federal judge is supposed to make a ruling on California's AB962 on the 18th...
Hope that judge isn't going to take this creeps action and use it against us.
