According to a 2007 story in the Arizona Daily Star, Gabrielle Giffords was the first Jewish woman from Arizona to serve in Congress. The JTA reports that Giffords made her Jewish background part of her House campaign:
“If you want something done, your best bet is to ask a Jewish woman to do it,” said Giffords, a former state senator, said at the time. “Jewish women--by our tradition and by the way we were raised--have an ability to cut through all the reasons why something should, shouldn’t or can’t be done and pull people together to be successful.”
She was raised in a mixed-religion home, with a Jewish father and a Christian Scientist mother, which according to strict Jewish law would not make her Jewish. Anti-semites would not know the difference and would not care. But seriously is it even possible that this would prompt an attack on a crowd of innocent people?? Has our world reached such a degree of sickness? Regardless of her religion or political beliefs, what possible reason could there be for such a murderous attack on innocents?

The only thing that can top this in total evil ugliness is the baptist church that plans to picket the funerals of the six innocents who died. I will not print their foul, disgusting name or rhetoric. That there is no law to protect the grieving families from these disgusting lowlifes is unbelievable. If you really want to read their crap the Huffington Post has the article. I refuse to give one iota of recognition to these sick excuses for living beings--the same reprobates who dare picket the funerals of soldiers that died for their country. What I wish on them in truly not fit for print.
I pray Gd will spread his mercy over the family and friends of those who have suffered this unwarranted attack. Baruch Dayan Emet.
