Nine wounded. Four dead. Do an Early Life check on the ones that died. I'm sure it's totally just a coincidence.

what REALLY happened.

FBI Cointelpro instigators riled up the hippies and chucked rocks and shit at National Guard troops until they finally lost it and they shot down some hippies.

The hippies also backed the Guard up against a fence, so there really wasn't much of a choice. Imagine you're 19 years old and armed, but outnumbered by a bunch of violent protestors screaming at you and throwing stuff.

Excellent. I'd add that students at the time were being enslaved by the government to be sent overseas to fight the war, so it wasn't just a moral objection to many, it was a response to a much more immediate threat to their freedom and even life.

I was just about to graduate high school at the time and was in line to get my draft card, which I eventually did. I know how they felt.

The group of students was from Weather Underground. That org is the preAntiFa, the prior year their protest did an obscene amount of damage to the University. They occupied the President's office if i recall correctly

Although the student movement was certainly joined by communist backed revolutionaries, the heart of the student protests against the war resulted from the draft, particularly after student deferments were ended. People going to school and hoping for a career in a completely capitalist manner were angry that the government was enslaving many of them to fight in a war that was clearly in support of a corrupt and oppressive government. They weren't interested in giving their freedom or life as part of a cold war strategy.

Hippies protesting the Vietnam War told to go home. Hippies were the early version of AntiFa liberals back then. https://www.history.com/news/kent-state-shootings-timeline
