AAPS Condemns Tucson Violence

The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons joins with Americans of all political persuasions in condemning the violence that gravely injured Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords at a “Congress on the Corner” event, and took the lives of Judge John Roll, 9-year-old Christina-Taylor Green, and four others. We pray that Congresswoman Giffords and the other injured citizens will have a speedy full recovery.

We deplore the glorification of violence and the demeaning of the sanctity of human life that contributes to such evil actions.

We commend and thank the heroic Tucsonans who restrained the shooter and likely prevented much further carnage, and those who rushed to aid of the wounded.
