Can William Ayers account for his whereabouts on that day?

A lot of people have believed this for years.

If I recall correctly, there were people present who admitted that they heard shots coming from a direction different from that of the National Guard line.

So Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young owe everyone an apology?

Ohio lyrics by Neil Young

--------

Tin soldiers and Nixon coming,
We're finally on our own.
This summer I hear the drumming,
Four dead in Ohio.

Gotta get down to it
Soldiers are gunning us down
Should have been done long ago.
What if you knew her
And found her dead on the ground
How can you run when you know?

Gotta get down to it
Soldiers are gunning us down
Should have been done long ago.
What if you knew her
And found her dead on the ground
How can you run when you know?

Tin soldiers and Nixon coming,
We're finally on our own.
This summer I hear the drumming,
Four dead in Ohio.

The line, "We're finally on our own" describes the feeling of freedom and independence in college, and the line "Four dead in Ohio" refers to the four slain students at Kent State. The "Tin soldiers" are the National Guard, and many people, including Young, felt that it was President Richard Nixon's fault.

I have always assumed that the contemporary reports in the MSM were incomplete and biased. The bias prevented total digging into background material.
The bias, due to incipient PC back then (yes, the MSM were on the side of the rioters) painted a totally one-sided picture.

Back then, as I do today, I was of the opinion that anyone, of whatever ethnicity, who masks his face, and incites idiots, with a bullhorn or hurls bricks or other objects capable of serious damage, should be shot on sight.

I live 6 miles from Kent State. It’s still a lib hell hole.

I warned my two oldest, should they feel the need to protest on my tuition dime, they better hope the National Guard get’s there before I do...

Thus is a set-up by the Zero administration. Next the old Tea party ladies will be firing on the SWAT “authorities”.

Tin soldiers and Nixon coming, We're finally on our own. This summer I hear the drumming, Four dead in Ohio.

"Previously undisclosed FBI documents suggest that the Kent State antiwar protests were more meticulously planned than originally thought and that one or more gunshots may have been fired at embattled Ohio National Guardsmen before their killings of four students and woundings of at least nine others on that searing day in May 1970."

"Originally thought" by whom? This isn't new information to anyone with an ounce of common sense who was paying attention back then. It isn't much different than "knowing" the things that are "known" today, but there is "no proof", "no evidence", and many things hing on "what the meaning of 'is' is".

This angers me intensely. What the F was the FBI thinking, keeping these documents sealed all this time?

Guardsmen carried the burden of these shootings for decades. The public by an large thought evil of the guardsmen. Familes thought their kids died needlessly, fired upon by ill prepared guardsmen.

Fact is, those kids may have died needlessly. But there was a rhyme or reason behind it. The guard were fired upon and feared for their lives.

This was FUBARed to the max, and not by the guardsmen either.

I saw a documentary many years ago that stated the National Guard was fired on first. Of course, that little fact has been conveniently omitted over the years.

I was in Chicago the previous October 8-11, 1969, tracking Rudd and the SDS Days of Rage.

Rudd had spent seven hours on the Purdue campus pitching his recruitment before various groups from 5,000 to a living room.

Many three-car-plus-wagon convoys, platoons of pigeon-blue helmets, knots of Dick Tracy's around walkie talkies, the Chicago Tactical Squad, and a crowd of presumed off-duty or undercover Chicago cops looking for a little ultraviolence.

The army surplus in red-armbands broke windows and took refuge in churches.

Ayers followed with bombs. Is it too great a leap to foresee he would use provocateurs?

And now, behold, "meet the new boss, the same as the old boss"--the punks run the show.

And the Maoists in the new administration were mute when the PLA killed 2,000 in the 140 locations associated with the "Tiananmen Square" massacre of June 3-4, 1989.

Not to mention the abomination of Waco and the highly suspicious OKCBomb.

Today the groundwork is being laid for the Nuclear Freeze the Columbian Kenyan wanted.

And Bill Ayers cheers Hugo Chavez, "Viva la revolucion bolivariana!"

Where was all that bleating when Neda was shot by agents of Hussein's beloved Rat Boy.

And all of that was to protest a Cambodian pursuit of an enemy hitherto allowed sanctuary by the previous president more intent on his six-trillion-dollar war on something or other--

Would not two million Cambodians have preferred a little help--do their voices not call from beyond.

The left cannot think from one sentence to the next, but must follow the next passing demagogue.

Every expunged or censored word will eventually resound from mountaintop to mountaintop.

I wonder if the burn outs known as Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young will apologize for causing anti-American hatred in their misguided, one sided anthem, “Ohio”? (Sound of crickets)
