I am only on page 4, trying to catch up. Sorry if this has been asked, already. How do these American deaths stack up against all deaths there? There seem to be a lot of Americans dying. Or are we only hearing about Americans? Or are they being targeted?

This whole thing is so disappointing. Why did the mom find it necessary to start a page? I know there were several out there, but one she admits to starting. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5171257/Keaton-Jones-mother-says-Confederate-flag-photo-ironic.html I see she had $$ to...

I wondered if maybe that was supposed to read "adult temper TANTRUM".

Sounds like mom and bf aren't being much help in giving out info. I'm going to hope against hope that she will be found alive.

In the wake of all of these allegations against men, I am wondering if we'll see some against women (as in, "she told me if I didn't ________, she wouldn't promote my career/book/film, etc.). Or maybe not? Maybe there are not any women with powerful enough positions that it would happen. I'm...

It's something someone picked up on that didn't seem right to them. <modsnip>

Thank you! I realized that a few minutes ago!
