She stated this morning that she owns a gun. I thought we were supposed to keep the guns from the mentally impaired. Is she a threat?

I'm not going for a laugh. Seriously, if she has a gun as her husband stated she could be a threat.
Agree 100%.
I do not feel that she has the physical ability to use a gun.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
What on earth would possess that vile woman to own a gun?
I dont think she is a vile woman, but rather a victim of a psychologically impared person with a gun.

Has she recently changed her outspoken support of gun control and abortion? She was anti-gun prior to being shot, and she was an advocate of killing children for the sake of convenience. Qualifies as vile to me. YMMV.

She was never totally anti-gun, perhaps an elitist and somewhat hypocritical but not totally anti-gun.
Prior to being shot she supported the Eddie Eagle program, she supported a National cross-state standard for concealed carry and supported concealed carry in general but she sought a ban on semi-autos except those used for hunting. A female Fudd. [:(!]
eta: ......and yes, she was strongly in favor of abortion is a woman's right.

Sorry, I should have been more clear. She was "anti-Second Amendment" prior.

I do believe they will trot her out for sypathy every chance they get.
I dont know her politics, but I will say getting shot does not make you an expert on anything.

I would say it makes you an expert on bullet wound pain.

I would agree completely!
We need Gabby, Jim Brady and Carolyn McCarthy to take their "I'm a victim, feel sorry for me" show on the road. Maybe a cross country bus tour with stops at major cities along the way? And can I say this without offending anyone, Mr Gabby, the astronaut, has proven himself to be quite a * bag.[xx(][:(!]

Simple fact is they are setting up a non-profit, that they will both collect a nice 6 figure sum from.
Wife gets shot in the head,.....retirement in LARGE style.
"And can I say this without offending anyone, Mr Gabby, the astronaut, has proven himself to be quite a * bag."
Like John Walsh, turning a family tragedy into a great career![xx(]
Mr. Gabby was a media darling, spending every moment by his wifes side,,,,,,,,,,, except when playing astronaut, of course.

Agreed, like getting hit by a locomotive does not make you an engineer.
I hope to hell her husband and the Democrats are not manipulating her for these staged events. If they are, it is shameful, and I would feel much sympathy for Ms. Giffords. If they are not, I have no sympathy what-so-ever, as it is she that is manipulating emotions.

After the shooting, I decided to investigate her politics a bit. While she wasn't terribly radical prior, she was no friend to the second amendment, and so I have no doubt that she is NOT being manipulated, but rather is manipulating.

I take everything people like this say with a grain of salt. I saw an interview he did where he stated he was a gun owner, he believed in the 2nd,Just last year he had went to Wal-Mart and bought a handgun. He had done his background check and did not see a problem with it. Not a soul bothered to tell him WallyWorld does not sell Handguns
Since Gabby Giffords has suffered a significant brain-injury as evidenced by her speech and mannerisms she is "mentally deficient", she and her husband should be stripped of their "Rights" to own firearms as her husband who's busy profiteering, soliciting donations to his "charity" (slush fund) on Liberal news outlets cannot ensure their firearms won't be used improperly by his wife.
Instead of vilifying law-abiding citizens who own efficient semi-auto firearms LEGALLY, Gabby Giffords husband, Mark Kelly, should be more concerned with wiping the drool from the corner of his wife's mouth and changing her soiled diaper.
