Daddy's Girl

someone's daughter

The daughters of the rich and privileged get to promote ghost written books and go on book tours with Mommy. The daughters of the rich and privileged get to flaunt the law. The daughters of the rich and privileged get to have weddings to other rich and privileged kids in front of oddly pagan altars. PFC LaVena Johnson was someone's daughter. She got none of those things. While the daughters of the rich and privileged don't need to worry about being raped and killed by American soldiers; and then have the United States Army lie about it, stonewall the investigation, and go so far as to glue gloves on her hands to cover it up, the daughters of the rest of us do.
