This is a standard play. At Kent State, the organizers were at the back pushing the crowd into the national guard, and someone fired a shot. What the fuck do you expect a bunch of soldiers to do when a violent mob is advancing on them? The Boston Massacre was similar.
The progressives want a pile of bodies. It doesn't matter who makes them because the left will caption the pictures.
They also made sure the NG were edgy as fuck by previously trying to burn down the ROTC dorms the day before. There was every reason for those NG to believe they were under attack
And then we get 'four dead in Ohio' and a thorough scrubbing of events in the history books.
I didn't learn about the protestor's tactics before Kent State, and in the moments leading up to the shooting, until about a year ago. I should not be surprised at this point, but when I look back on what I was taught compared to what the fuller story was of various incidents, the differences are astounding.
I will say I was lucky enough to have a great teacher cover the events of the Boston Massacre. The revolutionary war was essentially America's first civil war, so it is fair to examine it to see what kinds of instigations were happening back then.
Check out Strictures upon the Declaration of Independence. Some of it is the equivalent of antifa complaining about the fence around the Portland federal courthouse blocking the bike lane.
