Well enright it is what it is. you cant change people and if grinding bothers you dont go to dances! yes its banned now but dont mean it will come to a complete halt. each generation has their own form of dancing in high school and the previous generations always find it far more vulgar than theirs.

People are stupid enough to grind to “Shook me All Night Long” from AC/DC or “Don’t Stop Believing” from Journey. I don’t think it’s the music so much as the people.

Perhaps you both should do more research. Any article related to the Ft. Bliss shooting mentions Cassie’s and Kevin’s deaths.Cassie died on April 4, 2009 and Kevin died on April 5, 2009. He was kept on life support for a reason….although he did a horrible thing, he did a good thing by donating his organs. But, I bet you don’t find one article that mentions that! Kevin did NOT have a rap sheet full of violent crimes. You have no idea if he was affected or not with PTSD. Just because he wasn’t a soldier doesn’t mean he never suffered any traumatic episodes in his life. And from “what you know of him”….does that mean you DIDN’T know him?!? Did you even know Cassie?
Do you know what your misinformation does to BOTH families? Do you even think about that before you write your non-factual comments? Don’t you think that both families have suffered by the tragedy? It’s a double tragedy. Both families lost their own child and both families lost another child with the loss of their daughter in law or son in law.
And as far as PTSD being treated by the military, you are right….our soldiers are NOT getting the proper treatment. Please continue to fight for it.
Again, please check and double check your facts before writing your comments. Your personal opinions are just that….YOUR opinions. But when it comes to things about other people, make sure that you really know what you’re talking about.
Thank you.

The administration should know this about the bells and cut us some slack when we are here and the bell rings too early. There are ways for them to ring them manually and I know it’s a pain in the butt but it’s annoying to not know when the bells going to ring. Thanks Hennessy for bringing this up.

John, it’s a short blurb about the latest meet. Amanda and Shayelagh did awesome, as did Michaela and Marissa, but I can’t include everyone in a sports “brief”

Well, the purpose of my story is to shed light to cases that are occuring across the country where soldiers and their families are being killed because no one is looking into anything. PTSD is a main cause of many offenses and though not all cases are due to that, it is still an impoortant topic. Though double checking my research, the elpasotimes.com no longer had the article where i recieved my information since it is removed from their archived stories. I did now find an obituary on Kevin Beckel which i did not come across during my research since i did not have his name. This story was not based around the Beckels, it was based around necessary attention.

Cassie’s husband from what I know of him was not an enlisted man, he was a violent person to begin with, and not affected by PTSD, he was affected with total control disorder – if she left his sight for longer than a few minutes, he felt threatened that she would leave him, or did leave him. He was a disgusting creature, but not a soldier – and if you read any of the stories that mention him, you’d have read that he was a convicted felon, and has a pretty good rap sheet for violent crimes.

BTW, kevin’s dead, he died the next morning, you’d think a year later you’d get that information right. I mean there isn’t an article anywhere that I can find that even mentions he’s alive, only that his attempt at suicide was less than .. effective at first. – he was on life support for a few hours – but they removed that after declaring him brain dead.

I think you just used the tragedy slightly modified to support your original argument. as more “supporting evidence” to your cause. .. whatever…
