My sister in law was at Kent State when the shootings took place and, years later, I was in the courtroom during one of the federal civil trials - person was shot and paralyzed. My observations are that the blm riots were worse because the authorities allowed it to escalate Honestly, I cannot fathom the on campus riots today basically calling for the extermination of the Jewish race. They cannot comprehend the nazi parallels


Did the majority of the students win law suits?

I can’t imagine if the cops did that during the BLM riots.

I have gotten a response yet about the divide. Was it a split country or loud and violent minority?

Sorry for late reply - obviously 4 were killed and many that were shot and otherwise injured all sued. The entire event started because of rock throwing students and then one national guard thought he heard a shot and started firing.

Jurors were not kind to the government

As for the draft, I remember sitting in the car with my mom and dad listening to the radio announcing the draft and they called my brothers birthday - my mom started crying.
