Incredibly OT - but please indulge me. - Harborwitch - 01-08-2011 I am not going to ask for opinions - in fact I don't want to know . . . But can we please all take a moment from our evenings to say a prayer for the people killed or wounded in Arizona today - and their families. This is such a tragedy . . . my heart breaks. Labs - can you lead us in a prayer??? ![]() Re: Incredibly OT - but please indulge me. - labradors - 01-09-2011 Already been at it. Contrary to earlier reports, Rep. Giffords was NOT killed, but IS in the hospital - obviously in very serious condition. Haven't heard the status of the others - only that there WERE others shot. Praying for the recovery of all who survived, for comfort and solace for anyone emotionally affected, and for wisdom for the doctors, law-enforcement officers and other members of Congress as they perform whatever they need to do in light of this tragedy. Re: Incredibly OT - but please indulge me. - Harborwitch - 01-09-2011 Rep Giffords is in critical condition - the bullet went through her brain. A Federal judge, a 9 year old little girl and (I think) 5 or 6 others were killed, not counting all those that are in critical or very serious condition. Of course our best local news channel was too busy broadcasting football. ![]() Thank you for your prayers - this is, I pray, the act of a single deranged person, rather than something worse. My heart is breaking! ![]() Re: Incredibly OT - but please indulge me. - cjs - 01-09-2011 It's just incredible that we are here in Arizona when this happend - while the Sheriff was holding a press conference last night he was informed and sixth person had died. We finally had to turn it off - just too darn emotional. YOu can imagine all regular programming was off for a long time just running this story. I didn't realize Congresswoman Giffords' husband and twin brother are both astronauts. Re: Incredibly OT - but please indulge me. - Gourmet_Mom - 01-09-2011 Just tragic. Prayers here as well. |
