Gabrielle Giffords and killed six others. The man is described as an adult Caucasian male, between 40 and 50 years-old, with dark hair, His picture is shown in a security camera image at left.

Police are not providing specific details of the possible role this man might have had in the shooting spree, although a law enforcement source close to the investigation told this author that the man might have had prior knowledge of the plans of the primary suspect, Jared Lee LOUGHNER.

The as-yet unidentified male was last seen wearing blue jeans and a dark blue jacket.

There was the "reader" at Daily Kos who gave inklings of doing this ~ but since he posted after the event most folks have dismissed him as being Jared.

However, some of these Kos-ites and DU-ers are actually composed of TEAMS of people who maintain a 24 hour presence on line.

....the gunman came up to Gifford from behind and shot her in the head.

The Judge was just at the gathering as was the little girl.

Investigators have recovered a pistol with an extended magazine [ glock 19], according to Pima County Sheriff's Deputy Rich Kastigar. They do not know how the shooter got to the scene. Govexec.com

Gabrielle Giffords, the target of Loughner’s firing frenzy, is “the first Jewish female elected to such a high position in the US government. Source

Parker said Loughner [Caitie Parker via Twitter] had encountered Giffords once before in 2007 and had "asked her a question and he told me she was 'stupid and unintelligent'."[ ynetnews]

"..may have links to anti-Semitic race hate group American Renaissance, according to an internal Department of Homeland Security (DHS) memo quoted by FOX News Channel on Sunday" Fox Philly

The feds are reportedly probing whether shooting suspect Jared Lee Loughner has ties to an anti-Semitic, anti-government hate group that has ads for Tea Party organizations on its website.... The group’s website features what appear to be paid advertisements for tea party versions of the “don’t tread on me” flag.Politico

"No! I won't pay debt with a currency that's not backed by gold and silver!" "No! I won't trust in God!" lists on his MySpace page: Nazi leader Adolph Hitler's biography, Mein Kampf, and The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx, as well as books dealing with totalitarianism and mind control: Brave New World, Animal Farm, and Farenheit 451. Govexec.com

The New York Times' Paul Krugman writes "You know that Republicans will yell about the evils of partisanship whenever anyone tries to make a connection between the rhetoric of Beck, Limbaugh, etc. and the violence I fear we’re going to see in the months and years ahead. But violent acts are what happen when you create a climate of hate. And it’s long past time for the GOP’s leaders to take a stand against the hate-mongers."



The link is to bottom-feeder TBogg, who predictably drags out the map Sarah Palin had put out targeting certain lawmakers, including Giffords, for political purposes. But via daleyrocks, it appears that Markos Moulitas himself also put a bulls eye on Giffords [ABOVE]

Was Arizona shooter influenced by Palin?
[ynetnews]. "In March Sarah Palin revealed her list of 20 Democratic members of Congress she urged her followers to defeat. She illustrated her list with a map of the United States that displayed a rifle scope on top of each of the 20 districts she was targeting. One of the targeted districts was that of Giffords. Palin also tweeted, “Don't Retreat, Instead - RELOAD"

"Grey's Anatomy" minicap: Episode 11 - "Disarm"..Cristina and Teddy continue working on the shooter and Derek, Meredith and the Chief gather in the observation room to watch. Soon all the doctors have gathered and are witnessing Cristina and Teddy save the shooter's life. And save him they do. The Chief announces to everyone that they saved 26 patients. There were only 26 victims so they had no causalities. Lexie, Bailey and April all begin to cry. [AferEllen]

Yesterday was surreal. First thing I read is the headless bodies found in Acapulco and then I read there was a Congressperson and others shot and killed in Tuscon. FR was not user friendly so I turned on the tube. There is Henry (CNN) reporting from the White House, after a press release, telling the president was at a sports event.

Then Henry goes on to say that this event could be his OKC bombing as was for Clintons reelection. The day really went into bizarre mode as the media decided to make this a Palin led Tea Party action. Some liberal claimed the shooter was an Afghan vet. I have never read/heard such a flood of outright lies and slander since OKC massacre.

It’s interesting you mention the Cantor thing. I don’t recall the media blaming the dems for their anti-GOP/anti-Bush/anti-conservative rhetoric and stirring up violence. They just ssaid “nothing to see here, this guy is just a total loon”. Well, the same thing happened here, unfortunately this guy was able to do something and not just make threats.

Apparently, someone at conspiratorial site GodLikeProductions has discovered that Gabby Giffords UTube Channel has a subscription to Loughner's UTube channel.

I have no idea if this is true.

At either AboveTopSecret, or else it was GodlikeProductions, I read that the reason the reports on victims varied so very much in the beginning is that....... a number of shooting victims drove themselves to hospitals.

Just how long did it take for EMTs to arrive and treat 5 or 6 victims remaining???

Jared Taylor of American Renaissance states emphatically, that Jared Loughner has NEVER had any contact with his group. Ever.

This individual was identified by LEOs, this individual has been located, AND this person has NOTHING whatsoever to do with Jared Lee Loughner.

They did NOT release this individual's name.

I’ll wager the wicked sheriff had decided this was a political conspiracy and needed accomplices to make it bigger and badder...he seemed quite devoted to the theory yesterday.

It’s lousy when facts get in the way.

The madman just walking along stabbing people in Ohio, West Virginia, Maryland and Virginia was eventually captured, found to be quite mad, and sent back somewhere to go back in the can.

He looked exactly like John Doe #2
