Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
CNN.com - Breaking News, U.S., World, Weather, Entertainment & Video News
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
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
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.
Jared Lee Loughner Identified As Gabrielle Giffords Shooter (INFO, VIDEOS) 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
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

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.

Re: Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in Arizona
Quote:
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 "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."

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.
