The nation continues to mourn the tragic shooting at a Tucson area, Safeway.

One of the victims and intended targets of Saturday's shootings was Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, who remains in critical condition after being shot in the temple.

Federal judge, John Roll and others, including an aide and a nine year old girl, were killed in the incident, which took place at a constituency forum that Mrs. Giffords had staged and previously attended in the past.

The shooter, 22-year-old, Jared Loughner was taken down by bystanders and is currently in custody; slated to be brought up on federal charges.  So far, he has not been answering any questions related to the shootings and some believe another man might have also been involved.

No clear motive has been established, but the suspect's mindset is becoming more clear as he appears to have left several ranting messages, including YouTube videos and Myspace postings in the last several weeks.  Former classmates are also coming forward with past stories and accounts.

We reach out and continue to offer our hopes, thoughts, and prayers for Congresswoman Giffords, and the rest of the victims in what appears to be another senseless tragedy with more details surely to emerge.
