Where’s the Ohio National Guard when you need them?


There is good reason to believe that the Kent State shootings effectively put an end to the Anti-war movement. After it happened, a lot of parents had very frank discussions with their kids and told them play-time was over. Things were pretty muted after that.

I was about 7 miles from Kent State when that happened. My dad slept on the couch with a loaded shotgun during the riots.

I was ten years old. Made quite the impression on me.
