"Cassie"

I fairly recently started to enjoy the music of Flyleaf. I had heard one or two songs at some point, but never really pursued more. Since I have, I do enjoy the music. They are Christians who are in a band, not a Christian band, based on their statements. One song's lyrics caught my ears: Cassie. After some research, I found the story behind it. It's based some questionable recounts of the events at Columbine. However, further digging led me to find what seems more likely to be the truth (as I expected).

The events at the school that day are tragic. The apparently untrue story is sad. However, if the narrative fits . . . promote it!! It's unfortunate that these types of stories live a strong existence despite evidence to the contrary. I still enjoy the riffs that Flyleaf puts out.
