I remember it well. We were at a NCO club having a few (most of us Vietnam vets), watching TV when there was a news bulletin. The national guard whacked a few students. It was unanimous, we all stood up and cheered the guard.
thats been a favorite left wing myth for years....all polling after Kent State was 60/30 supporting the Ohio National Guard. The left also “adores” all the war protests between 1968-1972...like it really changed anything...Nixon still won a 49 state landslide. The public turned against the war..because “they” didnt go and win the damn thing.
