even though the return of their coffins is banned from press coverage? Bring'em on!

I don't know where you live but in California this woman's death is getting a lot of coverage. She was a 19-year old who was supposed to have a desk job as a switchboard operator. The parents are devastated (understandably) and the news is showing their reaction which is very negative and critical of Bush, not the typical "she died for her country" that you usually hear.

Lau's parents spent Monday wondering if somehow the news could be a mistake, while greeting caravans of well-wishers and reporters at their home. They were proud of their daughter's service, they said,but also angry about the circumstances of their daughter's death.

"Nobody can find the weapons," Agustin Lau told KCRA television. "And then, the other thing is, after the war finished, there was more death."
