MAY 4TH - KENT STATE - 4 DEAD IN OHIO

by YIP Wednesday, May. 05, 2004 at 7:15 AM

April 30th, 1970... The U.S. invades Cambodia, expanding the war against Vietnam. Protests break out across the U.S. Campuses are paralyzed by strikes and shutdowns. May 4th, 1970... National Guard troops at Kent State University fire live ammunition into crowds of unarmed demonstrators... killing four and wounding nine.

MAY 4TH - KENT STATE...

Thirty four years to the day.... May 4th, 1970.

Allison Krause, Jeffrey Miller, Sandra Scheuer and William Schroeder died under a hail
of bullets fired by fellow Americans acting on behalf of the American war machine in Vietnam.

Never forget.

"Tin soldiers and Nixon's coming, we're finally on our own.
This summer I hear the drumming, four dead in Ohio.
Gotta get down to it, soldiers are cutting us down. Should have been done long ago.
What if you knew her and found her dead on the ground?
How can you run when you know?

Gotta get down to it, soldiers are cutting us down. Should have been done long ago.
What if you knew her and found her dead on the ground?
How can you run when you know?

Tin soldiers and Nixon's coming, we're finally on our own.
This summer I hear the drumming, four dead in Ohio,
four dead in Ohio, four dead in Ohio, four dead in Ohio, how many more?
Four dead in Ohio, four dead in Ohio, four dead in Ohio, home many more?"

"Ohio" Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young

I saw this on TV

by Sheepdog Wednesday, May. 05, 2004 at 7:24 AM

They were cut down with the sweep of an automatic weapon.
This footage was pulled and the blame infered to 'a few' shots from variousm guardsmen. It was a single weapon on automatic fire.

What's your source? (And either way, it's deplorable)

It was on TV

by Sheepdog Wednesday, May. 05, 2004 at 3:17 PM

I was in my parent's house home on leave, watching the tube and I just saw it.
It's one of those things etched deeply into your memory.
They were cut down left to right like a scythe hit them. A line of students standing shoulder to shoulder. Unmistakable effects of a
burst of automatic fire lasting less than a second.
