Her fiancee, Gabe Zimmerman, was Rep. Gabby Giffords&#8217; outreach coordinator in Tucson and was killed by Jared Loughner in the Tucson shootings.<\/p>\n<p>Ms. O&#8217;Brien was on GMA to lend her support to bills being introduced into the Arizona House and Senate which would limit magazine capacity to 10. She is a sympathetic figure and you grieve for her loss. I think we can expect to see more of her as well as others related to this shooting being used to push for restrictions on standard capacity magazines.<\/p>\n<p>Ms. O&#8217;Brien, however, gets it wrong when she says that it is &#8220;so sad to see 19 people gunned down in 15 seconds by one of these extended capacity clips.&#8221; It was not the &#8220;clip&#8221; that killed her fiancee &#8211; it was a mentally disturbed person whose condition went unreported by school authorities and then ignored by the Pima County Sheriff&#8217;s Department. It was Jared Loughner that killed Gabe Zimmerman and not the Glock 18 knock-off magazine. We can still grieve for Ms. O&#8217;Brien&#8217;s lost love but we don&#8217;t have to agree with her reasoning.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" height=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/c.gigcount.com\/wildfire\/IMP\/CXNID=2000002.0NXC\/bT*xJmx*PTEyOTcxMDU3MzU3ODEmcHQ9MTI5NzEwNTc*MTI5NiZwPTEyNTg*MTEmZD1BQkNOZXdzX1NGUF9Mb2NrZV9FbWJlZCZn\/PTImbz1jMDliOTE3ZjdjZmE*Yzk*ODhjMTM4OWYzZDc1M2FmZSZvZj*w.gif\" style=\"height: 0px; visibility: hidden; width: 0px;\" width=\"0\" \/><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>George Stephanopolus had an interview this morning with Kelly O&#8217;Brien on Good Morning America.
