Well, I will both agree with you and disagree with you.

A different round, yes, it would have killed her.

But I alsop believe that luck, or heaven forbid I mention "God" was watching out for her.


I believe everything happens for a reason and hopefully soon we will see something good come from this.

Blame not the tool but the man behind!

Frankly, he does deserve the death penalty. Also what would have been worst was if he had an Uzi or an AK47 with 50 round magazine. But again it was not the gun that pulled its own trigger.

True. A gun is only an object. He could have used any number of different objects to kill someone.

The left only questions the use of a gun, they never question his intentions.

He could have just as easily started swingin a machette and caused just as much carnage if not more, for some reason something like puts more fear in people. Remember the hijacked planes on 911, they used box cutters.

Bruce Lee could kill someone with his bare hands.

The moral of the story here is that if someone is intent on killing, they are going to do it with whatever means they see fit to do it.

But the left wants to punish all gun owners because of this guys actions.

They want to blame it on Sarah Palin.
They want to blame it on the Tea Party.
They want to blame it on everything under the sun...EXCEPT FOR THE GUY HIMSELF!!

No kidding, I could kill people with improvised weapons, screw drivers, hammers, iron pipe, cars, trucks, trained animals, poison, and a host of other things. Hell, what kept him from stealing an 18 wheeler and driving it into the crowd? Think a gun is dangerous? How about when over 100 people get a taste of truck tires driven over them? Just be glad the loony didn't opt for the better killing machine. An 18 wheeler is far deadlier than a handful of small arms.

LOL

So now we have more crazies with glocks.

They saw how effective it was.

And with all their visions of pleasing their hate gods like Limbaugh or Sarah in their heads and their new glock to make it easier. Yehawwwww

Fine, I will now equip my pickup truck with a cow catcher for wiping out pedestrians! Flame throwers out the sides and a 20mm cannon for pesky news choppers a deranged accomplice can use while we go on a rampage becasue Sarah Palin hated Liberals and all the while playing Ozzy Ozbourne's Suicide Solution.

SHEESH!


All Together Now!

Wine is fine
But whiskey's quicker
Suicide is slow with liquor
Take a bottle drain your sorrows
THEN IT FLOODS AWAY TOMMOROW!!
Evil thoughts and evil doings
Cold, alone you hang in ruins
Thought you'd escape the reaper
You can't escape the master keeper
'Cause you feel life's unreal and you're living a lie
Such a shame who's to blame and you're wondering why
Then you ask from your cask is there life after birth
What you saw can mean hell on this earth
Hell on this earth!!
Now you live inside a bottle
The reaper's travelling at full throttle
It's catching you but you don't see
The reaper is you and the reaper is me
Breaking laws, knocking doors
But there's no one at home
Made your bed, rest your head
But you lie there and moan
Where to hide, suicide is the only way out
Don't you know what it's really about
Wine is fine
But whiskey's quicker
Suicide is slow with liquer
Take a bottle drown your sorrows
THEN IT FLOODS AWAY TOMMOROW

I had just drove into Phoenix when I heard the news on our radios and on TV when we checked into our hotel. I saw a pic of the guy on TV. It looked as though he was smirking when they showed his booking photo on the news. A very sick puppy indeed. I don't know about this amateur thing, but the fact is he killed people. That is very difficult to comprehend, this act of violence!!!!

What a concept!Blaming the person who committed the shooting!


I remember when I was growing up serial killers and murders would take pride in the fact that they carried out the plan,they were responsible,and they enjoyed the killing and would have kept killing had they not be caught.Now when people kill they automatically blame the system,are totally innocent,and believe they should be set free.

Glocks suck!That is one of the most worthless guns I have ever come across.The only think Glocks are good for is paperweights.


I prefer a good Ruger or Smith and wesson.

For self defense, a Mossberg 12 gauge loaded with one slug followed up with 2 . Backed up with 6 rounds of 357 mag hollow point.
Then, cut the throat to make sure there's bleed-out before the ambulance gets there

TUCSON, Ariz. — U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords was breathing on her own and moving both arms after being shot in the head, doctors said Tuesday.

Giffords still has a breathing tube to prevent infections such as pneumonia, said her neurosurgeon Dr. Michael Lemole.

"I'm happy to say that she's holding her own," he said.

Giffords, a three-time Democrat, remained in critical condition at Tucson's University Medical Center since Saturday when she was shot during a meeting with constituents outside a grocery store. The attack killed six and injured 14 others. Six remained hospitalized.

Giffords previously raised two fingers with her left hand and gave a thumbs-up when responding to doctors' verbal commands.

Although her condition has remained virtually unchanged the past few days, doctors were hopeful.

"She has a 101 percent chance of surviving," said trauma chief Dr. Peter Rhee said. "She will not die. She does not have that permission from me."

Doctors initially thought the bullet entered the back of the skull and exited the front, but after reviewing X-rays and brain scans, two outside physicians brought in by Giffords' medical team now believe that Giffords was likely shot in the front of her head.

Giffords was lucky the bullet did not cross into both sides, or hemispheres, of the brain, which can leave lasting damage, her doctors have said.

Also, Giffords is breathing on her own, said Dr. Michael Lemole, the chief of neurosurgery at University Medical Center in Tucson.

Lemole said at a news conference that the congresswoman is still following simple commands, although she remains on a breathing tube to protect against complications such as pneumonia. She's alert and responding to doctors.

Earlier Tuesday Lemole told TODAY there were no significant changes in her condition overnight. "As frustrating as that may sound, that's a good thing," Lemole said.


When asked about swelling in her brain on the third day, Lemole said a CAT scan early Tuesday showed no increase in swelling, although he cautioned that it can sometimes take longer for the condition to peak. Nearly half of Giffords' skull was removed to alleviate any swelling.

She has given a thumbs-up sign and tried to grab at the breathing tube, an encouraging sign of the level of consciousness and her reaction to pain.

"The fact that she's able to register that discomfort and then react to it, again, it means the brain is working on a higher level," Lemole said.

Without speculating on the congresswoman's long-term prognosis, Lemole said she has the "full range" of recovery ahead of her.

"I've seen people in this scenario make very little improvement and require constant care, and I've seen other people ... who have made remarkable recoveries -- functional recoveries -- and gone back to work," Lemole said. People who suffer penetrating traumatic brain injuries often develop paralysis and cognitive problems.

Usually with a penetrating injury through the skull, survival and recovery is "abysmal," said Lemole at the news conference. "She has no right to look this good."

Giffords is expected to remain in the ICU for at least another week.

She has been able to breathe on her own for a while, it was just safer to keep the tube in. I hope to see her back on Capitol Hill soon.

Weapon sales are up...

Not because of this persons use of one...

Because Representatives and Senators are talking again about gun control...

Weapons sales allways go up when such talk hits the Hill.
