Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
"3,600 messages from Mason in November 2021"
30 days in November, so 120 messages A DAY. EVERY DAY.
I'm married and I don't talk to my wife that much.
"Your daughter's death is not service related"
How the hell does this even go on, and not have someone arrested? That BTW is rhetorical
~~In-service death tends to be an almost automatic grant of service connected death benefits, likely only burial in this case. DoD failed this person. That doesn’t mean that the VA will.~~
Edit: I managed to read the article and still get the country wrong.
"Larkhill camp in Wiltshire", this is in the UK so DoD and VA don't apply, but you can be forgiven for thinking that given similar ass-hattery in the US.
Oh geez. I’m so used to reading sexual trauma records from the DoD that I just assume immediately. Sorry about that, my bad entirely.
McCready said her daughter did not want to inform anyone in the army about Mason’s behaviour as she did not want to be known as “the female troublemaker”.
Her fear was legitimate, and I understand why she would be reticent to report it. On the other hand, what was the Army supposed to do? They should certainly be fostering an environment where people are not afraid to report, but in this one particular instance, perhaps informing on the culprit could have led to a better outcome.
You ask what the army should do. You answer yourself: foster an environment where this behavior is rooted out. Since she didn't feel safe to report, they clearly failed at that duty.
What is your confusion?
Anyone in the US should know that if you feel your military chain of command cannot help you, you can contact your members of congress and they will act on your behalf.
Please do not become a stylistic
A statistic, even.
yeah... I have had a coupel glasses of wine
A glass being a cork each, right? The bottle is my treasure if I have wine, just sip on it for the night.
oh yeah, no bottle should be wasted, so might as well enjoy the whole thing!
It goes bad once it’s been opened, anyway. Max 3 days. I’m old. And faded.
if I don't drink it the next day... imo its done. My wife will use it for cooking sometimes
Monster.
I'm pretty sure this is a stupid question and I missed something but how did she die? Is this being treated as a murder investigation, suicide?
This article didn't say, but the first few google results say suicide.
Cool, thanks, that makes sense.
What a weird response.
