Starting to get really bad in Vegas. We used to get a story like this once a month, then over the summer it became once a week, now it's twice a week.
Time to outlaw knives.
Has anyone thought to blame this and all ancillary crimes on George Bush?
you republicans are over and over just crass and sarcastic bunch with little regard for others. Just ME ME ME. Always its about you. Couldnt care less two peple are gone in that matter. Just about your little corner of your world and how to subjugate others to serve you. thats Repbulican motto
Hey SteveM, this DIDN'T happen in North Las Vegas .... shocker huh?
I am a family friend of the Chester's. I grew up down the street from them when they lived in MI. The daughter and I were inseparable. She and I still keep in close contact despite being a few timezones apart. All of my greatest childhood memories include her. I also remember Timmy very much. He was almost like my little brother for the years we lived so close to one another. The daughter sent me a text this morning..I am still in shock. All of my love goes out to her and her family. They're with the food group, hun! Chip, Cookie, and Muffin.
