    Yeah I'll eat my hat on that comment. I always assumed the shootings had a greater impact on the populous then it seems to be. I guess that's the impression Ohio by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young gave me growing up.

    I assume any event like Kent State today will hardly be covered at all, which is mostly what I mean by "better equipped". Better equipped to minimize the reporting, use the deaths against the movement, and dig the bootheel in even deeper.

      Oh I'm sorry if it came across like I was arguing with your point! I was not.

      I was trying to agree and say that they did a "great" job last time of having everyone on their side, and I don't doubt for a second that they'll do an even "better" job this time.

      Better equipped to minimize the reporting, use the deaths against the movement, and dig the bootheel in even deeper.

      couldn't agree more
