They're out and about on the campus doing this thing.

But anyway, it's all talked about as it comes up.

The difference here, as far as my reading could tell me, was that local authorities had said, we see what's coming, we're going to do this, that, and the other thing while this is happening, the local mayor, etc.,

Outside of this community, of course, America isn't hearing about this at the time.

Was this a typical situation with these campuses and how local communities reacted?

Let's go through the chronology of these days.

May 1st, two peaceful rallies are held on the campus, followed by unrest downtown in the town of Kent.

Fires are lit, windows smashed.

The National Guard is called in and a state of emergency is declared.

Who calls that emergency?

The governor?

The next day, a thousand gather on the campus.

And this is what you refer to, the ROTC, the Army Training Building, is burnt down by a couple of protesters.

Was this an intended mission of that group or did this sort of happen in a random kind of way?

That's a big question for me in this because nowadays we are so conditioned to see these this news video of forces in answer.

You know, they all have their costume.

They all have their uniforms.

They all have their helmets.

Everybody around the world is now.

ready to control a riot somehow with big plexiglass shields and so forth.
