Congresswoman Giffords Shot in Tucson
As I type this she is in surgery contrary to rumored that she died. 1:14pm, AZ time
So as of right now she is alive, shot in the head, and in surgery. Let's say a prayer..

Gabrielle
Giffords, a congresswoman from Arizona, was shot in the head on
Saturday at a public event held at a grocery store in Tucson, her
spokesman, C. J. Karamargin, said. Others at the event, including
members of her staff, were among the injured.
Dr. Rayle said he
performed CPR on some of the victims. He said one of the victims was a
young child and appeared to be in critical condition with a gunshot
wound.
He said that one of the staffers tackled the gunman and
that he and others helped detain the suspect. The doctor described the
gunman as a white male in his mid-20s with short hair and “dressed in a
shabby manner.”
An employee at a nearby store told CNN that he
heard a steady stream of gun fire that appeared sustained and “random.”
Shortly after, emergency vehicles filled the parking lot around the
grocery story and cordoned off the area.
The shooting occurred at a
Safeway supermarket in northwest Tucson as Ms. Giffords hosted an
event, called “Congress on Your Corner, to allow members of the 8th
Congressional District to meet her individually. She has held several
events since first taking office in January 2007. At one such event in
2009, a protester was removed by police when his pistol fell on the
supermarket floor.
She married Cmdr. Mark E. Kelly, 46, a NASA astronaut and Navy pilot from New Jersey, in December 2007 at a wedding attended by Robert B. Reich , the former Labor secretary.

An
earlier version of this article misstated Gabrielle Giffords's
condition. While several news reports had said she had died on the
scene, a hospital spokeswoman said that the congresswoman was undergoing
surgery.
