The Kent State incident was clearly the fault of the student protesters and not the National Guardsmen.

It is not like they will ever correct the history taught and written about.

Did you read the article. I’m not sure anything is clear, but it seems like there is some evidence a photographer working for the FBI fired the shots. Not that I’m fans of the protesters, but if this agent of the FBI fired the shots, it wasn’t the fault of them.

Your right on with that statement...and it took shooting some of those students to put an end to the college riots...If they could get hurt, it wasn’t such a good idea to burn building and trash other buildings....or throw blood all over everything......

Many believe the events contributed to the change in the public's attitude toward the war, which ended five years later.

I guess it was one of those slow moving changes.

That is a point in history that I don’t even like to think about.
There was plenty of blame to go around on that terrible day.
Even “if” there were earlier gunshots,
that does not justify indiscriminate shooting into a crowd of students.

I always felt that way. Even back then the news was biased.

Actually, it wasn't the fault of students nor the National Guard.

It was the anarchists, people like Bill Ayers, who turned the PROTEST into a RIOT. People who get their jollies watching other people DIE.
