From a very far point of view... the other side of the Pond.
While I understand that the bleeding hearts would have cried outrage even if the prize had been a BB gun, and while I like the pro gun stance of the GOP, I would say that the choice of the gun is.... I was going to say "tasteless" for lack of another adequate term.

Oh, nonsense. If Loughner had mowed those people down with a Toyota Camery, should they have avoided auctioning off a 4Runner?
It wasn't even the same model Glock.
This story is just another example of people assigning meaning to an inanimate object which, in the right hands could have as easily saved Giffords from her fate as caused it.
Giffords herself owns a Glock 19. It would make as much sense if the story was that had chosen the Glock to honor Giffords. Equally ridiculous.
