Too bad Ohio can't get it right. They shot the peaceful kids and only arrested the ones that were begging for a bullet.

from what i have heard, it just escalated immediately out of hand, the one story i have heard started with some chick getting arrested, and then her friend ran out to try and do something, the cops threw her to the ground and arrested her... and then all hell broke loose

That's not how you take care of students at Kent State. Use real bullets next time.

That night was crazy.

We were at a party off Water St., and I ran out to get some food. I get to the corner of 59 and 43, and I see what looked like dozens upon dozens of police vehicles stopped in the middle of 59. It was crazy.

A few moments later there was a police helicopter out with a spotlight...we have no clue what it was looking for.

We all got kicked out, but I had to drive home...er...well I hadn't come down yet. Scary driving through Kent like that after the riots.

A big party? Who riots over a big party? I have no sympathy for these kids. You want to fight cops? Fine, but at least have some conviction about it.
