Look you are showing your ignorance about Kent State. One of those killed was an ROTC student and a second one was a young woman who was walking to her class.

Both of them were shot a significant distance from the protesters. There was no good reason for those National Guard troops to open fire. They had been ordered to fix bayonets as a show of force. It was a breakdown in discipline.

To say its time for the “good guys” to get more of them is just plain idiocy and wrong.

There is enough blame to go around about Kent State, on both sides.

And they set the shooting in motion with their refusal to disperse when ordered. I’m sorry for the deaths of Schroeder and Scheuer but Krause and Miller got exactly what they were looking for. I shed no tears for those committed to the violent overthrow of the US Government in support of communism.
