AZ Congresswoman Giffords, 6 others killed

[Point Beer Is Best]

She was doing a "Congress on Your Corner" event in Tucson when a deranged gunman approached and opened fire. The shooter is in custody. This is tragic regardless of your politics, and is a sad reminder that

high profile public officials being gunned down is not something that

only happens outside of the US.

FYI Congresswoman Giffords survived, but she is still in critical condition.

All right valpo, you're right, I shouldn't have made a political post on BF.net. It was going to come up anyway, though. I'll point the discussion to:

I'll also delete my above post.

There's no way this will be civil. Please go to the politics forum to discuss.

 

As a reminder:

 

A) Politics are off-limits here.

 

B) "He started it" is not a valid excuse for breaking site rules yourself.
