How will they blame this on Palin?
Thats right! This wouldn't have happened if Sarah hadn't moved down to AZ! <./DU thinking off>
No to Romney, Huckabee, and Paul.
Dupnik’s SWAT team at it again?????
3 hrs ago? That’s Breaking news?
And they can’t say if the shooting was in a house, a business or on the street?
We must do away with guns! They are bad! (Sarcasm out the wazoo).
Thanks for the edits!

Prayers to the victims.
And just waiting for an idiot sheriff to decry how Arizona has become ground zero for intolerance and hatred.
Then later on we’ll learn that the shooter was mentally deranged, or this was a gang shooting/drug shooting, having nothing to do with political issues.
And there was a BUS nearby!!! It must have been Sarah Palin and her incendiary rhetoric. They must have thought the targets were Mitt Romney.
No, the shooter was just the child of Dipstick's personal friend and fellow county employee, but well "known" to Dipstick.
The anti-gun MSM has to get its several stories right first. <./speculation>
Asinine isn't it? Was there more than one shooter? Is there anyone else on the loose? Is there a description of the perp?
