Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik on Shooting of US Representative Giffords

[The sheriff pointed to the vitriolic political rhetoric that has consumed the country as he denounced the shooting that claimed several of his friends as victims, including U.S. District Judge John Roll...\

"When you look at unbalanced people, how they respond to the vitriol that comes out of certain mouths about tearing down the government. The anger, the hatred, the bigotry that goes on in this country is getting to be outrageous," the sheriff said. "And unfortunately, Arizona I think has become the capital. We have become the mecca for prejudice and bigotry."

...An uncle of the 9-year-old girl {killed} told the Arizona Republic that a neighbor was going to the event and invited her along because she had just been elected to the student council and was interested in government.
