It makes things like Rand Pauls recent fillibuster seem a bit more credible doesnt it..

No, not really. Rand Paul is a plutocrat, not a Real American.

Weren't most of the kids killed just walking to class, not protesting?

Yes, the understanding is only Allison was actively protesting.

In what universe is it ok for the military to kill protesting college students?

Not to mention most (if not all) were just walking to/from class….


That's what we can expect from a reactionary government hell bent on stifling public descent of any kind.

These days they've become more sophisticated and use drones to do the killing!

Especially because Trump wants so badly to leave his mark on history, and is itching to start a war somewhere to insure he does.

I was a sophomore in high school. It was my first anti war protest, as we boycotted classes that day.

This is political and will be shut down... but not before I mention that I attended an anti-war protest on this day. I got my draft notice a week later.

Quite a story,
Thanks for the reminder,
Let's hope the national guard isn't called to police like this again.
