It was not immediately clear if the PAC also would campaign for or against individual candidates. More than 10,000 people liked the group on Facebook in the first hours of its existence.

The PAC may coordinate some efforts with the anti-gun group founded by Mayor Bloomberg, City Hall sources said. Giffords and Kelly met with Bloomberg last week before traveling to Newtown."

Made the mistake of reading the link. Gifford's wasn't shot with an assault weapon. And her shooter showed many warning signs which were ignored. But hey, why let facts get in the way here?

Typical liberal "solution", try to use a crisis to push through something desired by those in power. Just like the "fiscal cliff" crisis was used to keep discretionary spending at status quo.
