I'm sorry a sick man on illegal drugs and not on medication for his sociopathic behavior took his sickness out by murdering 6 people in his assassination attempt on Representative Giffords.
And, I am glad and grateful Gabby Giffords made it through that horrid day alive when the assassination attempt was made on her life. I'm so sorry she is not able to continue her work of representing the people who sent her to Congress, and I'm so sorry others died, too.
Like it or not, Mrs. Giffords has become a poster girl for why we ought to try a little bit harder to see things from the other person's perspectives. Hatred does not have to make anyone do sick things. People should learn enough discipline to hear others out and bring grievances to the discussion table.
Someone should have helped this psychopath to a padded room until they could get to the bottom of why he engaged in almost nonstop abbertant acts. The man who mowed people down, killing six and maiming and wounding others was a sick man who was known for experimentation with hallucinogens and drugs and belonged to several conspiracy theory groupsd rather than learning to and practicing dealing with facts as they present themselves to true forensics disciplinarians.
Didn't anyone notice he couldn't make lasting commitments, couldn't hold down a job, couldn't hold down volunteer work in an animal shelter, familiarized himself with antisocial conspiracy theorists on a nonstop basis, was dismissed from college with a stern warning that before he could return to classwork, he needed a medical psychiatric evaluation saying he would not be a danger to himself or others.
Instead of pursuing a medical panacea, the shooter made and executed a plan to purchase munitions and take out someone important, and investigators found he had similar plans on President Bush, but no opportunity, after the fact. Shooting Gabby Giffords at the supermarket was a crime of opportunity.
When a school issues a warning as stern as the one Jared Lee Loughner got, he truly needed to be detained and treated for his mental illness and sick derangement on the spot. Someone should have contacted authorities to not issue him a weapon. All the information was there to get the sick young man off the streets, and it wasn't done.
Jared Lee Loughner' behavior changes are discussed here.
Sorry, but her farewell in Congress was so precious to all concerned, that I had to share it.)
