to you people out there who are so negative about this i pray to god that you never loose anyone in a really bad way before you talk or type you all should think there are family and friends out there that loved them and dont deserve the things that are being said you need to let the family grieve for there loss and pray for the one who has made it so far.and a child that will no longer have a father to see a again even going to fight in afganastan for us and come home and die here and be disrespected is wrong.

Leave this alone. It's not anyone's business how or why it happened.
