Today, in an act of terrorism, a nut tried to kill Congressman Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ). Fortunately, contrary to earlier reports, she will live. The police have not released details yet, including whether she was the target, or US District Judge John Roll, who was killed in the attack or someone else.
The aftermath of this act will be felt for sometime to come. It is the end of perhaps two eras here in the United States.
In America, though we might have differences, there were always certain things we could agree on. Conservatives and liberals could discuss and debate issues. That era is gone and the aftermath of today’s shooting is the official obituary for political civility in this country.
Although there was no proof the shooter was involved in conservative politics or the Tea Party, the left went nuts. Immediately after the shooting, the left went after the Tea Party. The Daily Kos went on a rant. On the Hill.com, one of the comments in the story about the shooting was from someone called “AC.” He said:
The Tucson Tea Party will be made to pay for the blood on their hands. An eye for an eye. You want a civil war, you got one. KILL Jesse Kelly for his role, then KILL Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Gleen Beck(sic). Whoever puts BULLETS in ther HEADS shall be a NATIONAL HERO.

Now as many try to make this a political move. What they seem to not be listening to is this guy was unstable period. I don't care what politics anyone is part of. Shooting and murdering them is never the answer.
Take a look at the news from yahoo.
A military official in Washington said Jared Loughner was rejected from the Army in 2008 because he failed a drug test. The official spoke Monday on condition of anonymity because privacy laws prevent the military from disclosing such information about an individual's application.
The official did not know what type of drug was detected in the screening.
Public defenders are asking that the attorney who defended Oklahoma City bombing conspirator Timothy McVeigh and "Unabomber" Ted Kaczynski defend Loughner, who makes his first court appearance Monday at 2 p.m. MST (4 p.m. EST).
Sheriff Clarence Dupnik told ABC's "Good Morning America" the suspect had said "not a word" to investigators since his arrest. Dupnik said authorities were all but certain Loughner acted alone, saying "he's a typical troubled individual who's a loner."
