Congresswoman on Sarah Palin's "target list" shot in head

Representative Gabrielle Gifford of Arizona was shot in the head today at a public event outside of a grocery store in Tucson. While events are still unclear, it has been reported that 18 people were shot, six of them have died, including Arizona Judge John Roll, a member of the Congresswoman's staff, and a 9-year-old child. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the victims and the families of this horrible tragedy.

In March, Sarah Palin posted a "target list" on her Facebook page. Congresswoman Gifford was on this list.

It's a sad commentary on our gun culture nation, and the violent rhetoric that has led up to this. But don't feel powerless to do anything! See my blog post for thoughts: newtrajectory.blogspot.com
