So, in summary, Gabrielle Giffords, a Congresswoman for the state of Arizona was holding a sort of meet-and-greet outside of a local grocery store in Tuscan. She didn't have any security, and a man named Jared Loughner basically walked up to her and shot her. The bullet went through her head, she was rumored to be dead, but it was later found that she was alive, though in critical condition. Among those killed was a young girl, age 9. She was there to learn more about government, as she had just been elected to her school student council. She never made it out alive.

People are arguing that he was either deranged/troubled, however I don't know much about that.

So, what do you think about the shootings? And what do you think about the whole Sarah Palin situation involved in this? And do you have any personal experience.

I, for one, feel absolutely horrible when I think of Christina, because she was so innocent and young. To me, she would have been a wonderful future for this country. And I quote, "Her life began on a tragedy, and ended on one." I wish the best to Representative Giffords and her recovery. And hopefully this will get sorted out, to put the country at peace.

I don't know much about the Sarah Palin thing, but it's definitiely suspicious. I can't make any assumptions though, seeing as I don't have enough information.

And yes, I do have personal experience. My mom worked in Tuscan until about three weeks ago. There was a lot of crime down there. We saw the scene of a murder and someone got mugged in my mother's very own hotel. I think that there should have been some security. Though it's expensive, it might have helped prevent some of this from happening. And, as to my mom working in Tuscan, I'm just glad she got out of there safely. It's scary to think about the fact that I was there, but I'm not the one who got shot.

My best goes to all the victims and their families.

Meh. Well, what really sickens me is the fact that a law had to be passedd to stop WBC from picketing the funerals. That's just dreadful.

WBC (Westboro Baptist Church) is just a hateful family/group of people who call themselves a church who preach hatred to people such as homosexuals and soldiers killed overseas.

What they do is go around all over the place and protest at the funerals of people who were killed to vouch for their hatred of America and get attention. They wanted to protest the funerals of those who died in the shootings because "it was a sign from God about how much he hates America and its people" however, Arizona passed a law that maade it so that they couldn't.

The whole thing about "people getting shot because god says so"

No. That's not what they meant. They basically think America is "not living how we're supposed to" or something of the sort, and said that the shootings were a sign from God that he hates America.

God hates America? No. God loves everyone.

Well, I guess they just interpreted the Bible in a different way than the rest of us. Either that or they don't care about religion whatsoever and just do what they do to get attention.

Did I hear she was going to be okay?

Well, no one can say for sure... Things can happen. But, judging by the way things have been going, she is going to recover from this. Not a complete recovery right away, but, it could have been a whole lot worse. Though, it might put some restrictions on her career.

But, none of that is definite, so...

Well, being shot in the head is obviously going to take some time to recover. She probably won't be able to go back to work for a while.

Me too. Did you watch the State of the Union Address on Tuesday? It was great. They were all wearing ribbons for her.

I missed it and they wore ribbons? That's sweet and not professional in the same timing.
