Basically

Kent State University students were protesting Viet Nam War specifically US Troops going into Cambodia.

Students protest, get drunk, cause a disturbance, set a building on fire (ROTC Building i think), cut water hose of firefighters

National Guard troops open fire on a crowd of students and kill 2 who were active in the protest and 2 who were just wrong place and wrong time.  

Its disputed why the troops opened fire

 

Me personally, I've never felt passionately enough about anything to protest it.  When you throw rocks at police/troops you're asking for trouble

One of the students they killed was 600 yards away and on her way to class.

As a whole, if you do that stuff you're asking for trouble

Obviously there were several incident bystanders who were killed or injured

Their deaths/injuries should have blame partly placed on the protesters

It’s a crowded college campus that was still having classes.  I see your point, but only one side had loaded weapons.

Lot of people at fault here

Troops, Protesters, College (for not closing down), local and state leaders...

You forgot President Nixon, but I agree.

The good old days, when you could still shoot long hairs for being commies.

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

Yeah, and the president wasn't a NSDAP apologist.

If only they had thought to wear MAGA hats and carry AR-15s. Everyone knows that's the difference between unruly protesters getting what's coming to them and patriotic Americans exercising their right to free speech. We've come a long way since then.

It is pretty ironic that "gun girl” (Kaitlin Bennett) is a recent Kent State grad (2018)
