Your powers of analysis are easentially nonexistant.
The judge was literally invited to his own assassination, and his assassin was a nut case that like similar nut cases in the past (Oswald, Hinckley, Sirhan, McVey) had been left free in spite of his known proclivities and indisgressions. He was aimed just like a gun, at the judge.
1. (the most common on the MSN) Is that he stopped by saw Giffords and then went over to “thank her” for her support. If the Judge was alone how does anyone know he went to “thank” Giffrods. This line is repeated in several stories almost word for word.
2. The Judge went to mass and then went to Safeway and spotted one of Giffords staff that he knew and went over to see what was going on.
3. Is the he was at the church cleaning as he did every Saturday and then someone told him that there was an event and he THEN went over to see Giffords. Oddly this story which I found on the latimes last week is now not accessible. I have sent them an email asking about it.
