After Arizona Shooting Tragedy, Nation Pulls Together in Prayer for VictimsPresident Obama, who called the event an "unspeakable tragedy," asked for a moment of silence on Monday at 11am. A bit of good news was to be found in the midst of Saturday's tragic shooting in an Arizona Safeway parking lot; U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, who had been shot in the head, was communicating with doctors on Sunday, although she remains in critical condition.
On Sunday, US House Speaker, John Boehner stated, "The thoughts and prayers of the House and the Nation are with Congresswoman Giffords and her family. We're also praying for the families of Judge Roll, and all of those taken from us yesterday so senselessly. Among the fallen is Gabe Zimmerman, a member of Congresswoman Giffords' staff. I've directed that flags on the House side of the Capitol be flown at half-mast, in honor of Gabe's death in the line of duty. An attack on one who serves, is an attack on all who serve." Flags at the White House were also lowered in honor of the victims, and President Obama, who called the event an "unspeakable tragedy," asked for a moment of silence on Monday at 11am.
