CT, please stop being such a smug know it all. The kids who were protesting and the ones who were shot were lucky enough to have parents wealthy enough to pay their college tuition and thus be deferred. I was 20 and I heard how these students would taunt National Guardsmen who were often the same age but from poorer families. You only spoke to protesters ( who of course were completely unbiased ) and none of the “slaughterers”. The Guardsmen were kids with six months basic training, none of it in riot control. Given the prior days events who knows what they were expecting nor what caused the first shot. The loss of your relative is warping your judgement
