Terrorist Attack at Ohio School -- 13 shot, 4 dead

The terrorists: Vietnam era National Guard. At the time the Guard was
made up of slackers, war avoider's and fortunate sons of the rich.




They were defending America from the anti-war liberal left. Those shootings
united the God fearing America loving Moral Majority against the evil Hippies.

That single act of patriotism by the National Guard against those America hating
dissenters validated the Vietnam war and resulted in Americas great victory and the
subsequent ticker tape parades down Wall St.


Actually no. They were defending themselves (quite lawfully) against
a rampaging and riotous mob of rock and bottle throwers hell bent on
harming them.

This was not a poltitical decision to fire, it was self defense.

Guard and rioters
