A Moment Of Silence

State Rep. Greg Morris observes a moment of silence with his son Jonathan, 8, for the shooting that injured U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Gifford, D-Ariz., at the beginning of the new session of the Georgia House of Representatives Monday in Atlanta. A somber President Barack Obama led a moment of silence on Monday for a nation stunned by an attempted assassination against an Arizona congresswoman that left her gravely wounded, several other injured and six people dead. The flag over the Idaho Capitol was ordered flown at half staff today in wake of the Arizona shootings here. (AP Photo/David Goldman)
