A Pondering Mind

US Representative Gabrielle Giffords an Arizona Democrat, was shot point-blank in the head, at a constituent meeting, outside a Safeway store, in the northwest part of Tucson. At least 11 other people are injured, and some presumed dead. Reports say that the gunman walked up to Giffords, stood about four feet away, shot her, and then went on his rampage. He was finally tackled by a bystander, and arrested. Reports say that he was in his late teens or early twenties.

It’s a sad day, when a Congresswoman, a Senator, mayor or what ever branch of government they may represent, can go outside, meet with people, and have their lives threatened, or taken away. Its time that we take a good hard look at the gun laws in every state, and do something about strenthening the gun laws.
