We mourn, we grieve, we suffer the outrage of the senseless violence that erupted on the streets of Tucson this morning. I was near the site of the shootings just yesterday, and was in the Court Building where Justice John Roll, now dead, presided. I am horrified, sickened, and saddened by the news.
I attended, and was privileged to have been invited to speak tonight, at the prayer vigil held at the Capitol Building this evening.
Our collective prayers go out tonight to all the victims of this tragedy, and to their families.
Our prayers go out tonight to our Tucson churches and their members.
Our prayers go out tonight for the citizens of Gabrielle Giffords' district, who elected her to represent them and who, at this moment, still hold on to the hope and belief that she yet will.
