"...The students were unarmed. They had been throwing stones and pieces of concrete at the national guardsmen as the protests became increasingly volatile...."


If they were throwing chunks of concrete, they were fucking armed. Not to mention burning buildings and other anarchist bullshit.

I was born in the 80's. I never heard shit about this during history classes in high school and I was a really great student. The Vietnam protests were glossed over. I'm not kidding you that I first heard about the Kent State shootings after listening to that crosby song "Ohio" with the line 'four dead in Ohio.' I have since been obsessed with reading about the incident. Can't imagine being alive during that time.
Go easy on us young folks. Educate us. Our schools have failed to tell us the dark side of American History.

Another Kent native here; went to KSU too. Although I'm too young to have been around for it my family lived in Kent at the time and my grandmother was working as a nurse on campus during the shooting. My great uncle was also the sheriff at the time, actually.

When I attended Kent I lived in Prentice Hall, which would have had a view of the events that day (the damn parking lot memorials glow like the sun at night, which sucked when your windows face them).

Each year there's a remembrance event; visitors place stones on the memorial parking lot spaces for the Jewish students.
