Quote: and Kent State survivor.
Being in a crowd that some members was throwing rocks at the nation guard made up of ill train and nerve armed teenagers themselves is beyond being stupid.
Whoever placed those nation guard troops into that situation instead of well train MP troops train to deal with mobs should had been charge but not the troops themselves.
But in any case, for my engineering school as a body we did refused to go along with the shut down of the university for a day in honor of the Kent State students killed or harm in that protect that you claimed to had survived.
Telling the University that if we was refused our right to attend classes that day we would expect either a rebate or another day schedule to made up the work lost.
The engineering school ended up being the only school open that day.
