In the article it states that Nixon didn’t want another Kent state and had 1500 National Guard boots ready. Thing is, if they were vets they are already trained NOT to shoot under the current rules of engagement.
I would sue Nixon for declaring a state of emergency thus giving a false sense of security because the city should have been shut down along with traffic and then for promising that there would be security but doing nothing.
Thanks for doing my homework, I stand guilty of not reading the article completely.
Re: suing Nixon...completely agree.
