Do they know if the gunman was a Teabagger?

Apparently targeted by the Tea Party and Palin for her health care vote. Whip up the freaks and you never know what will happen. I wonder if her husband, astronaut Mark Kelly will eventually run for her seat.
RIP

Wanna bet?
The shooting happened about 15 minutes ago in broad daylight. She's a pro-choice, Jewish Democrat who was holding a public meeting at a Safeway. She was obviously targeted with a headshot.
And it happened in a state that voted for Jan Brewer.
It's a 'bagger, all right.

amir scooped you, mark.
my stomach sank when I heard this just now. right wing loons are just passing ammo, so to speak, to the anti 2A groups.
that isn't my primary concern, though. knuckleheads on the right are acting less rational all the time, and it's very concerning.

Amazing. So common usage of the rightwing propagandists of phrases like "take aim", "Fire", and "reload" result in violence. Who'da thunk it.
On another site, someone immediately tried to blame this on "the mexicans". Is this about to get ugly? I'll bet security just hit the roof all around the country.

First shot fired: Democrat Representatve in AZ assainated

And the overwhelming conservative view on Yahoo news comments is pro-murder, and insisting that "we" need to move on to assassinate all Democrats next.
I was REALLY hoping this would hold off until my tax return to replace a few of my firearms that I've had to sell to make it past the surgery, but it looks like the first shots have been fired

Conflicting reports on the number of dead, one news source says 13 shot and 6 killed. Shooter in custody. The FBI has taken over the investigation.
