Are all assassinations political?
I'm sure that those of you who are currently online have already heard about the shooting of Representative Gabrielle Giffords (D-Az) in Tucson about an hour and a half ago.Although Giffords is the first Jew to be elected to Congress from Arizona, as far as we are currently aware, her positions on Israel had nothing to do with this.
I write instead to caution that I have seen a lot of tweets on Twitter that claim that all assassinations are political and that therefore seek to blame Giffords' political opponents regarding [pick your issue] for the attempt on her life. Not necessarily. There are enough violent maniacs out there who don't need any excuse to attempt to murder someone, especially someone who is comparatively well-known.
My prayers go out for Ms. Giffords' speedy and complete recovery among all ill Jewish people.

She seems like a nice person, but she is a shiksa. Her Mother is a protestant goy and her husband is gentile.
Yup.
The deranged Left is trying to blame conservatives and Republicans before ALL the facts are known.
Its a terrible crime and the shooter's motivations may have nothing to do with politics at all. I advise people to wait before jumping to conclusions about who did it and whatfor the reasons were for the crime.
Is Judge Roll Jewish? I saw that this nut has Mein Kampf on his list of favorite books. And @Daniel, the U.S. public considers people Jewish if they specify "Judaism" as their religion. That's what her wikipedia bio says is her religion. The general public doesn't know the real rules. I think (and hope) that Jared is just a nut.
if you look at the shooters youtube and the screen shot of his myspace, there are lots of clues that he is a paulbot.
doesnt make him a conservative, but he is definitely not a lib.
and to daniel...is giffords a convert?
BTW, the judge is apparently not Jewish:
"the judge had merely swung by the event to say hello to Mrs Giffords after attending Mass.
