What does LaVena Johnson's death say about us?

[Kaypain]

Can't believe there's no thread on this story. And it's never been had the National attention it deserves.

Ask about Gabriel Union, and many will readily give details about the actress' recent engagement to Miami Heat superstar Dwyane Wade. Ask about Beyoncé and get the skivvy on her 2013 CD of the same name. Ask about Olivia Pope and get the most insightful predictions of upcoming Scandal episodes. Ask, however, about deceased Private First Class [Pfc.] LaVena Johnson and all too many will reply,"Who"?

If you have asked the "who" question, know that you are not alone. And if it is some consolation, also know that a number of factors contribute to your lack of knowledge. Being unaware is not completely your fault. Mainstream media is unlikely to touch the story of LaVena Johnson due to the powerful interests that might that it go quietly into the night. Black media is consumed with the goings-on of celebrities. Cultural blogs make these rather simple reports that require little serious journalism and research their focus and top priority. As a result, the broader community masters the scoop on the rich and famous as if this demonstrates being in the know on key issues of our times. And [black] politicians are likely to risk their political fortunes on the tragedy involving some 19-year old black girl. And as if the death of Pfc. Johnson is not sad enough, after answering the "who" question, one is left with another equally disturbing question. How?

Thanks to a film documentary The Silent Truth, reports on alternative media such as Democracy Now, and a recent article that appeared on The MadMan Chronicles, the story of this young lady is regaining much needed attention.

Interesting read. I refuse to believe the official story

These questions need answered:

1. How does a young lady take an M-16 automatic rifle to shoot herself in the mouth?
2. Why no suicide note at the scene to corroborate stories of LaVena's depression?
3. Why did investigators fail to recover a bullet?
4. Why were no traces of gun powder found on LaVena's hands?
5. A trail of blood leading from LaVena's body and the tent.
6. Forensic evidence that someone tried to set the tent on fire, leaving Pfc. Johnson's fully clothed body inside the burning tent.
7. What of trauma to LaVena's body, including: multiple abrasions, a broken nose, loose teeth, and burns.
8. A corrosive chemical on LaVena's genitals.

Excellent Post. This story when I heard it a few years back was sick and demonic. This also shades light on the gruesome acts of rape that go on in the military. I mentioned her before on sohh and on this site when we were speaking on military rape.

I never heard of this. Your questions are on point..how can you not track down who has access to corrosive chemicals on a military base..is it that freely available? Probably not.

The problem is what angers black Americans isn't their own dying in the military by the hands of their fellow counterparts but the fact a white guy killed a black boy. The coverage was also a main factor as the media wanted to see racial tensions even if we never seen trayvon's body. We see the body, the evidence and the outcry from these parents of the young girl but since it's military...black folks won't go there.
