    Giffords, 40, took her seat in Congress in 2007 and has advocated for immigration reform, among other Democratic-led issues. She was among 20 members of Congress who were on former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin's so-called "hit list," depicted in a graphic online with targeting crosshairs over their individual districts, still viewable on her Facebook page.

    "Palin has crosshairs on our district; people have to realize there are consequences to that," Giffords told MSNBC.

    The website for Palin's PAC appeared to have withdrawn the crosshairs over Giffords' name today. The former vice president candidate also posted her "condolences" to the victims on her Facebook page.

    Telling voters to 'reload' and 'aim for' Democrats was perfectly fine, Sen. McCain argued in March

    Jesse Kelly, Giffords' Republican opponent in the 2010 mid-term elections, similarly employed guns in a campaign event. He staged an event in July asking supporters to "get on target" and "remove Gabrielle Giffords from office" -- all while shooting "a fully automatic M16 with Jesse Kelly."

    "We are all deeply saddened by this morning’s shooting," Kelly wrote Saturday night. "Gabrielle Giffords, the other victims, and their families are in our prayers."
