    What if you knew her and found her dead on the ground?

    40 years ago, student protests at Kent State University turned deadly when the national guard opened fire on protesters killing four and wounding nine.

    After all of this time it still horrifies me that it could have happened. Ask your parents about it, do some history and never forget.

    13 seconds of firing, 67 shots fired by 29 national guardsmen, 4 killed, 9 wounded.

    Do not forget...

    Jeffrey Glenn Miller (20) - shot through the mouth - killed instantly.
    Allison B. Krause (19) - fatal left chest wound - died later that day.
    William Knox Schroeder (19) - fatal chest wound - died later that day.
    Sandra Lee Scheuer; (20) - fatal neck wound - died from loss of blood.

    I hope this never happens again in a democratic country where freedom of speech is valued so highly, and an administration decided to limit that freedom.

    Insanity is just a point of view. After all, the world looks pretty normal through your own underpants.
