Sick, Stupid F*cks

The Republican Party of Arizona's Pima County, as represented by Gabrielle Giffords, is advertising a fund-raising raffle. The prize? A shiny new Glock .40 - the same gun used by Jared Loughner to shoot Giffords in the head and kill 6 others during his shooting spree last year.

Wow.

My friends sometimes tell me I shouldn't get so mad about Republicans. Some of them even try to persuade me that Republicans are just people too... How about now?

Now Pima Country GOP Chairman Pro Tem Mike Shaw tells CNN's Randi Kaye that raffling off the same kind of gun that was used to shoot Rep. Gabrielle Giffords was completely appropriate because the congresswoman also owned a similar weapon:

"It was the actions of Jared Loughner that happened during the Tucson shooting so Jared was the one who was responsible," Shaw explained. "He could have used any type of weapon and chose to use a Glock -- I think it was a Glock 19. We're raffling off a Glock 23, which is a slightly different weapon. But, again, it was his actions that are responsible for what happened during the Tucson shooting, and so really the argument about what happened here in Tucson shouldn't be about the weapon."

What a crowd of utterly bewildered, amoral motherf*ckers Pima county Republicans are showing themselves to be if that's the best excuse they could come up with.
