RIP Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ) [Shot]

[Not dead as reported early on.]

I wasn't familiar with her before, but a glance at her positions makes her sound like someone I'd have backed enthusiastically. There are obvious conclusions we could jump to here, were we so inclined; that's a bad idea, needless to say.

[Update: According to Reddit, a gun was dropped at Congresswoman Giffords's town hall meeting last year, and the door of her headquarters was smashed after she voted on the health-care bill. She was also one of Sara Palin's "targets" [image (name not marked out on original...but the original seems to be down)]; Palin described her as a "problem," and asked her supporters to "prescribe a solution."]

Well, you might revise your title there; it looks like she may well recover from her injuries. I believe five have died, though.
