Saturday's Tragedy

What happened in Tucson, AZ, this past Saturday (8) was a national tragedy and my prayers go out to the victims and their families.
However, I am disturbed by much of the talk that I am hearing (and reading) on television, radio and the internet in the wake of this horrific incident.
The person who pulled the trigger in Tuscon was a total loser, a nut-job. He was rejected when he tried to join the Army and he was kicked out of college because of his perceived mental instability.
The Tea Party didn't pull the trigger. Sarah Palin didn't pull the trigger. Neither did the political Left or the Right.
This tragedy was caused by one crazy person for whatever bizarre reason he had in his head. [I am sure that we will, eventually, find out what that reason was.]
People who are trying to politicize what happened in Tucson should be ashamed of themselves.
Please join me in keeping the victims in your prayers.
