Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) seemed to imply recently that any change to the behavior of elected officials spurred by the shooting in Arizona earlier this month would be tantamount to making a concession to the alleged shooter.

"The shooter wins if we, who've been elected, change what we do just because of what he did," Lee said on ABC News's "This Week," during a segment about members of Congress being more sensitive about their use of inflammatory political rhetoric.
