Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona

CNN hasn't reported her death yet, but many other outlets have.

re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

Still conflicting reports at this point. Either way it doesn't sound good at all. Crazy f'd up people in this world.

re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

Ya everywhere including CNN,msnbc, fox, ect had reported her death and appear to have retracted it...so hopefully she can pull through

re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

I wish these "news" channels would just report confirmed news. They are constantly retracting reports then going back and forth. Instead they want to one up each other and be the first to report.

Re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

Damn sad news.... it sounds like a federal judge and a little girl was killed.

Also its things like this happening that make me not like having a seperate political forum....

Re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

Looks like a kid did the shooting and I say kid because they say he's 22.. So I'm only a couple years older.

I checked out his youtube vids and I know a lot of people have fringe beliefs... But I can see how they can connect at least to what going on in the mainstream.. But his stuff just seems way, way out there.

Re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

What a tragedy.

People who do this shit are just freaking nuts!

Re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

Shit that's awful. I hope she pulls through, but the article I read said the bullet went through her brain. Not good.

This m'fer walked up right behind her and fired over 20 shots into the crowd. Sick.

Re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

Heard the 9 year old girl who died had just been elected to student council and was invited to meet Giffords "a fellow representative" Tragic

He is another one of these guys who was convinced he was so much smarter than the rest of us. He was clearly convinced that b/c no one agreed with him they were simply incapable of understanding him.

TO ALL SIMILAR ASSHOLES: We understand what you're saying. We just don't agree. You're not smarter than everyone else. In fact, you clearly aren't nearly as smart as you think you are. By the way, murder is always wrong.

Re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

Extremely sad and senseless for all involved. This kid is quite the nut job.

Re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

Saw the dad of the 9 yr old on TV today and taken back that he would agree to an interview after just loosing his daughter. I also couldn't believe that someone would even approach him for an interview. This event has become very political and the girls father even said he believed in our freedom and would not want anything to change over this.

Nut job is putting it lightly... What point is he making or trying to make with his "if-then" statement? I really cant understand what he is trying to get at...

Loughner expressed his interest in grammar and logic on the Internet as he made bizarre claims - such as that the Mars rover and the space shuttle missions were faked.

He frequently used [B]"if-then" constructions in making nonsensical arguments. For instance: "If the living space is able to maintain the crews life at a temperature of -454F then the human body is alive in the NASA Space Shuttle. The human body isn't alive in the NASA Space Shuttle. Thus, the living space isn't able to maintain the crews life at a temperature of -454F."[/B]

Re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

So I have not watch much news over the past few days until last night. I had to check out MSNBC and CNN to see their twist on this and it seems like they think Sarah Palin bought the guy the gun and ask him to shoot the people. They point to this stupid map from a few years ago on seats she thought they could win in the mid term elections. It was all they could talk about on MSNBC for 2 or 3 hours and I'm guessing sense Sat. after the shooting and the wonder why their ratings are so low.

Re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

ugh, F Palin, seriously

And it's about time hacks like her realize that yes, the craziness they spew to their followers can have an impact like this. I'm not blaming her, just saying it's not out of the question for some wack job like this kid to latch on to something she says and run wild with it.

This comment sums it up for me:

Re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

It's plain irresponsible to use this tragedy as a launching point to discuss the nature of rhetoric in our country as it applies to politics. It had nothing to do with politics...at all. It's pathetic that this is what the situation has become.

Re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

Its the left again that keeps saying how dumb she is but they are so scared of her they have to run her into the dirt every chance they get. See if she was really some hack no one would pay any attention to her. Its also funny that its the left that keeps SP name in the news. If they would just shut up about her you might see her in the news once a month instead of all day everyday at MSNBC.

Re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

In my opinion, too often the responsible party is absolved of blame. And in this case by responsible party I mean the guy who pulled the trigger. People always want to find reasons and place blame on politics, the media, the parents, etc. Yeah sure those influences play a role. But at the end of the day, everyone is surrounded by that everyday and it's not going to go away...but most of us aren't crazy enough to go shooting people.

You mean like Marx, who called for violent revolution? Shall we ban the Communist Manifesto? Regardless of the speech, it is the individual who must be held accountable. Manson and Bin Laden did more than simply 'call for violent action' or 'exhort their followers'. At a minimum, they planned and facilitated murder. The mob boss who plans the hit is just as guilty of murder as the hitman himself.

It's one thing to call for civility, it's another to start saying certain types of speech shouldn't be allowed in public discourse. Calls for violence and etc. have always existed. As Smootsmack said, people calling for violent actions have always been a part of political discourse and are all around us. Quite frankly, in the 1800's the individuals (left and right) would have already fought a duel which was an accepted manner of resolving political disputes through the middle of the 19th century.

As I have always said, the way to respond to "bad" speech is with "good" speech not to attempt to ban the "bad" speech.

Yup. This tragedy was not caused by political discourse but by one individual's warped perception of reality.

Re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

When a political figure gets shot in the head, it's going to be political. We shouldn't be too surprised about that. Unfortunately this is the left/right game these days, do anything you can to pin things on the other side.

Re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

So now they are bashing Sarah agian for her statement and they are talking about how there is no way she wrote the statement. That's coming from the left that supports Mr. Teleprompter Obama.

Re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

I agree with what the sheriff said: The words of Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik should resonate for us all:

"The anger, the hatred, the bigotry that goes on this country is getting to be outrageous. The vitriolic rhetoric that we hear day in and day out from people in the radio business and some people in the TV business ... This has not become the nice United States that most of us grew up in. It's not unusual for all public officials to get threats constantly, myself included. That's the sad thing about what's going on in America: Pretty soon we're not going to be able to find reasonable decent people willing to subject themselves to serve in public office.''

Re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

does the "nice" United States include the duel between a former secretary of treasury and the sitting VP(Hamilton/Burr)? Or the assassinations and attempts on Presidents and Senators from the Kennedy's to Reagan?
Violence has been and always will be an inherent part of any political system. The US has managed for 200+ years to have a system which doesn't collapse when violence arises, but instead grows and adapts.

(The cynical part of me wants to say that it already has been a very long time indeed since any "decent" people were willing to serve in a public office. This shooting doesn't change that)

Re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
 

A high school friend of the accused gunman dismissed speculation that Loughner's alleged rampage was sparked by political passion.

"He did not watch TV, he disliked the news," Zach Osler said. "He didn't listen to political radio, he didn't take sides, he wasn't on the left, he wasn't on the right."

Osler said that Loughner was angred at the world.
"He wasn't shooting people, he was shooting at the world," the friend said.

The Loughners' note of confusion and contrition contrasted with a hateful scribble that was found in the Loughner home that simply read "Die bitch," a sheriff's official told The Associated Press. Other notes in the safe included "I planned ahead," "My assassination" and the name "Giffords."

Osler pointed to an online documentary series called "Zeitgeist" as a possible influence on the man.
The series rails on currency-based economics.
"I really think that this 'Zeitgeist' documentary had a profound impact on Jared's mindset and how he viewed that world that he lives in," Osler said.
Osler also said that Loughner's favorite quote was "Out of chaos breathes creation."

The tragedy of yesterday and the importance of identifying and preventing “lone wolf” attacks has been completely obscured by a shameful and uneducated attack of private citizens by the media and certain public figures who were elected to lead, not divide.

I watched as mainstream media double-downed on yesterday’s massacre by orchestrating a massive defamation against conservatives. It made me physically ill to watch corporate reporters abuse the title of “news” in order to prostitute the dead for an agenda. It made me sad to see a litany of threats against conservatives on Twitter, Facebook, in my inbox. I was told I and other conservatives were “murderers,” that Palin should “burn in hell” that Andrew Breitbart “has blood on his hands.” I guess that isn’t considered the same “violent rhetoric” they opposed. I watched as Markos Moulitsas singled out Sarah Palin’s target map while defending the scrubbing from his own website threatening posts against Giffords by his writers.

I watched as a partisan sheriff in Pima County Arizona gave a press conference and electioneered instead of doing his job.
I watched as progressives ran with the false narrative that the shooter, Jared Lee Loughner, was an Afghan veteran tea party member who hated illegal immigrants. Every single word in that last sentence, except his name, is a proven lie, but many progressives discovered that they valued the opportunity to make opportunity from tragedy more than the sacredness surrounding the lives lost that day.

We’ve heard over and over “don’t politicize this.” I said it all day online. Andrew Breitbart wrote a post at Big Journalism before the culprit was identified imploring all to refrain from politicizing the tragedy no matter the shooter’s political identification. I watched as conservatives were attacked simply for defending themselves against the false narratives that the leftist media used to attack them.

This tragedy was politicized. It was politicized by Sheriff Clarence Dupnik. It was politicized by Markos Moulitsas, MSNBC, the George Soros employees at Media Matters, and more, all who incited a wave of threats and violent atmosphere towards conservatives.

So let’s go over what we know about Jared Lee Loughner:

- The Communist Manifest and Mein Kampf are his favorite books
- Former classmates describe him as “really liberal”
- He hated government – as opposed to wanting a more accountable government
- He was a 9/11 truther
- He loved flag burning
- He had no regard for human life

Show me a tea partier that has this same list. I challenge every single person mentioned in this article to do so or else they will go down in history as the biggest liars in media. Prove it.
Now show me a leftist who has this same list.

Jared Lee Loughner was a sick individual, period, who had been waving red flags for a very long time and left warning signs all over the Internet. He didn’t belong to a group, but if the left insists on putting him in one, they better check their premises: he isn’t tea party.

Think again, left. Do you really want to throw aside concern for the victims so you can fail at scoring political points? Do you, mainstream media, want to aid and abet this sad trick for political relevancy of an ideology voters historically rejected on November 2nd? Is it worth the last vestiges of your credibility?

What does it say about an ideology that instead of peacefully coexisting together, realizing that the majority of us have the same goals but different means of achieving them, exploits a tragedy and prematurely – and very incorrectly – pushes the narrative that somehow, a public desire for a more accountable government is a call to violence? What does it say about an ideology whose weak attempt at denunciation of violence actually incites violence and threats against their ideological antithesis?
This is what’s wrong with media. This is what’s wrong with progressivism.
This is what plagues America.

How so?

I'm definitely a Palin hater, but I'm not blaming her for this.

On a related but general note, I just think people in positions of power, or perceived power, need to consider the words they speak, or the tone they set sometimes, that's all.

That goes for both sides of the fence.
