[Shooter 2.5]

The dead students didn’t have guns.
No Guardsman was wounded by gunfire.

What does that say about this article?

Days of major rioting, attacks on cops and firefighters are conveniently ignored.

The shots that killed the students were warning shots fired OVER the bad guys heads. Maybe the National Guard didn’t notice that the ground goes higher back there.

Did anybody bother to recover the bullets from the bodies and match them to the weapon(s) of origin? If not, then it is purely speculation that the guardsmen were the shooters. I prefer to work from factual evidence.

You obviously do not understand the work "instigation". It's part of organizing a riot. Look it up!

Not nearly as much as your puerile responses in this thread says about you.

The consensus around seems to say it says more about your comment. What’s your intent?

This Kent State “poor innocent protesters” crap sounded like horse doo when it happened, maybe FR not the best forum to keep pushing it.

Try reading the whole *thread*.

It can say that the shots were not fired by students, at least not by the students that wre killed. That no soldier was shot could mean that the shooter was not very proficient, or intended only to initiate gunfire that would bring a lethal response from the confused and inexperienced Nat’l Guardsmen.
