You hit the nail on the head. Standard leftist tactic is to send in agent provocateurs to create a riot that forces the authorities to respond. Then hope that someone innocent is hurt so they can be turned into martyrs. Because sometimes innocents have to die in service of the revolution.Ive actually toured the site. And the kid that was our guide even mentioned this. Surprisingly she did not exclusively hammer the guard. She mentioned the radical groups that were shipping people in over the course of days.
Bus loads of Students for a Democratic Society, United Communist Party, Black United Society. But NOT the People’s Front Of Judea…..as they were splitters at the time, burned down the ROTC building.
Coward admin plus militant activists caused this event. It was a tragedy.
