What a shame.
Nobody knows for sure if she was killed in the act though. NPR and such now say it's conflicting, while other news venues such as Fox confirm she is alive and in critical condition.
Hopefully she makes it through, as well as everybody else. _________________________________________

Criminals who want a gun to commit a crime will get the gun even if getting the gun is a crime in itself... duh. So, in before the omg-we-need-gun-laws, gun laws will prevent nothing.
Now, lets focus on why she was shot.

Why I loved living in Ohio for a little bit. Very relaxed gun laws there, so the criminals are so afraid to accost people as there's a good chance the civilian is packing. _________________________________________

Gawker Article on the shooting
She's alive, in critical condition obviously, but alive. A federal judge also present at the event did die in the attack.
The suspected attacker was taken down by bystanders and arrested, he is 22 years old.

What are the benefits of having a gun?
Hunting Killing
If you think a gun will protect you, you may as well live in a bubble, face it a gun was invented to KILL, dont compare this to knives as knives has soo many uses especially in the kitchen and who really would use a bread knife as a weapon
We should just go back to the old days of carrying swords and learn fencing, the government is not trying to kill you and lets face it if they were believe me you would need more than a gun to protect you.
I have been in alot of messy situations in RL and a gun would never have helped me

If someone is planning a crime that specifically involves a gun, then sure, they'll get one somewhere. But if someone is just thinking "Oh, I haven't been on a killing spree in a while. I'd better get me a weapon!" then they're far less likely to get a gun if guns are harder to find.
For instance whenever there's a story like this in England the people involved usually just use samurai swords or similar.
If you think that controlling guns won't make a difference in violent crime then you'd be delusional. But then again, even the cops are nutjobs, the amount of stories I've read of them going at non violent civilians with tasers is unbelievable.

"DON'T TASE ME BRO!" comes to mind... Good video...
Obviously, if the current gun laws had done their job, this wouldn't have happened. I'm not sure why any person is allowed to personally own a handgun or a rifle/shotgun that isn't made for hunting (why sell a semi-auto M-4 to a civilian, and not just a hunting rifle 30-06 or something? Doesn't make sense...)
Anywho, guns are bad, mm'kay?
And this is also a truly tragic incident.

No **** guns are for killing. Someone comes into my house to steal, I'll shoot his legs out. If he tries to kill me, I would kill him.
An individual has no chance against the government, but an armed populace also has the opportunity to put up some sort of resistance against a tyrannical government. In civil war like this, soldiers don't know who is a civilian and who is rebel - making the playing field either level, or forcing the government to just bomb their cooperative civilians.

Then keep your nose out of our business, thank you very much. The average American couldn't care less what you do in your own country. If you want to willingly disarm yourself and let your government have its way with you, by all means, your country, your laws.
But Europeans sure do seem to like to poke their nose into and offer a bunch of irrelevant opinions on the way we do things within our own borders.

I'm sympathetic to you but a word of advice: never do this.
If you point a gun at someone, do so with the understanding that you are using lethal force and aim at the center mass. Shooting people in the leg is something that happens in movies. You're just going to get yourself killed if you try anything fancy.
And honestly it happens so fast you're not going to take time to do it anyway.

Yeah, all we have to do is look at what a fabulous job strict gun control has done in Los Angeles, Washington DC, Chicago, and Detroit.
Oh, wait...

That's because the average American has no conception of life outside America.

Thanks for removing any doubt that, in addition to being a liar, a fraud, and the worst CEO in EVE, you are also a worthless sociopath.

Sure, it's just a coincidence that he was a fan of the same "revolution against the 'oppressive' government" nonsense the tea party loves. Purely a coincidence that he shot someone who Sarah Palin (you know, a tea party leader) targeted in that campaign ad involving crosshairs over the "enemies". Purely a coincidence that he shot someone whose opponent in the last election organized a gun-range fundraiser to "remove" her.
Yeah, no reason to blame the conservatives on this... -----------
