Talk:Cassie Bernall
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Since this article is now about Bernall AND Schnurr, should I move the article to "Cassie Bernall and Valeen Schnurr"? WhisperToMe 22:44, 26 Nov 2003 (UTC)
- Sounds reasonable. Martin 23:04, 26 Nov 2003 (UTC)

- My take on the best organisation of these articles is to have the massacre article, an article on each of Cassie and Rachel, and have Valeen redirect to the massacre. The current situation of these two being lumped together but not Rachel looks odd.. However having all three lumped in one article but separate from the massacre article would look odder still. We could have them all redirect to the massacre article but I think there is enough material and points of emphasis (e.g. the massacre article is about the two killers and the mechanics of the day). The Cassie and Rachel article are more pointed towards the religious of their lives and deaths, which were more specific to them. Pete 11:29, 28 Nov 2003 (UTC)

- This has now been implemented. Pete 12:12, 28 Nov 2003 (UTC)
- I thought Bernall and Schnurr could be dealt with together as the article is really about a single incident that involved them both. However, I see your point, and the new organisation also works. Martin 18:42, 28 Nov 2003 (UTC)

[edit] External link is 404
Just thought you guys might want to know that the second external link is 404. All the best. Redux 19:51, 1 Sep 2004 (UTC)
I am still getting the old 404...
[edit] External link Salon News
Should it be added in the article that according to the Salon.com news report she was "In trouble with friends and in school, Cassie was forced by her parents -- whom she'd threatened in letters to kill -- to attend West Bowles Community Church, where, after protest, she underwent a spiritual awakening and was born again." I think it should because it talks about her history. What does everyone else think? GZAdmin 17:51, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
If you can add a source to the statements next to it, other than salon.com, to confirm it then yes go ahead. I don't have anything against salon.com myself, but I'm sure that if people were to read that and find salon as its source there may be some who would attempt to remove it because of the whole political war going on in the US right now. Of course, I'm sure that it's mentioned elsewhere, so it shouldn't be hard to find another source for it. -- SmthManly / ManlyTalk / ManlyContribs 18:17, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
Actually that was discussed in length in her mother's book. So as you said it won't be hard at all to cite. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.44.84.41 (talk • contribs).
Alright, find the page in the book where it is stated and we can use that as a citation. -- SmthManly / ManlyTalk / ManlyContribs 01:28, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Schnurr disrespect
Why does Valeen Schnurr redirect here? That is incredibly disrespectful, I think. It's fine if we make a page including both, but don't name it after just one.

[edit] Inspiration
I added a link to Michael W. Smith and his "This Is Your Time" album, since the (it turns out, false) rumors inspired the title track, and had a profound impact on the evangelical Christian community. And I added that the rumors went so far as to say that Cassie had just seen another student shot for answering "Yes." I'll track down cites. ChristinaDunigan 17:04, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Merge all non-notable victims to a single page
She isn't notable; she should be on a single page with all the other non-notable victims, whose only claim to importance is being shot in the massacre. Titanium Dragon 05:20, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
