Sure, if the cartel hitman is a young white man with short hair and clean shaven.

Yes. Among the 19 people shot, one was federal judge John M. Roll.

A lone gunman in a crowded public area where escape is difficult isn't a professional.

And the tragedy is also that 4 or more may have been killed and many more injured. Condolences and prays to all the affected family!

An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth! Nobody who commits a heinous crime like this deserves to live.
I'm hearing 22 year old male that served over seas. Very sick and tragic on so many accounts.

I could not agree with you more. I hope he's not really a former soldier. Regardless though, if you've killed someone - or even attempted to - you should be removed from the planet. I really think we need to start euthanizing violent criminals from this country. They do nothing to help move us forward to a better life.

Who changed the title of this thread? Giffords wasn't "possibly" shot- she was shot.
