“I’m pretty shaken frankly. This is a very surreal, dream-like experience. As a columnist who’s covered politics in this state, it was inevitable from my perspective. The right in Arizona, and I’m speaking very broadly, has been stoking the fires of a heated anger and rage successfully in this state. It’s stunning because Congressman Giffords was a centrist, a moderate, and I don’t know who the shooter is, but what could possibly motivate an individual to be enraged enough take down a moderate centrist.” — David Fitzsimmons (via azspot)

Dave Fitzimmons is a local treasure. The political cartoonist for the local paper.
I have been reading alot of stuff from your state on this issue and I am glad to see some people finally getting the chance to stand up to the atmosphere that allowed this tragic thing to happen in the first place.
