Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I'm just sick to my stomach. And of course my twin sister chimes in on Faceboook along with my conservative friends how it's all about the anger and no sympathy for the dead and dying.
FUCK.
I hate people right now.
Wow, unless the gunman fired off a miraculously skull-grazing shot, she's still going to have some profound brain damage.
Domestic terrorism is despair making.
Thanks, flea! And Liese, I don't know if it tells you, but I'm deleting your submission of the polar bears, because it's already in the queue.
Giffords' surgeon said during a press conference that Giffords is out of surgery. "At the current time period I'm very optimistic about recovery," he said.
My BIL had a gunshot injury to the head, the person he was before is forever gone.
They've reported that a little kid injured in the shooting has died.
This is making me so angry and sick I can barely see straight. The last reports I saw said Giffords survived surgery, but a federal judge, one of Giffords' aides, and a 9-year-old child are dead. The shooter may not have been motivated directly by the rhetoric and images of Palin and these other right-wing hatemongers, but I can't believe this atmosphere of hate and violence had nothing to do with some crazy person's decision to shoot a woman in the back of the head today and fire off some 20 rounds into a crowd of people.
Am I right that Arizona recently passed a law making it legal to carry a concealed weapon without a permit?
