The Kent State Massacre:
National Guardsmen fire on a crowd of students protesting the Vietnam War and the American invasion of Cambodia at Kent State University, killing four students and wounding nine more - paralyzing one for life. Earlier protests had turned to rioting, which had first spurred the calling of the National Guard to the University.
The shooting itself lasted only 13 seconds, in which 67 bullets were fired at close range.
May 4, 1970 - 42 years ago today.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JAMES MONROE!
I went to your Museum in Fredericksburg all the time during college! :D
(I like your sense of fashion sir!)James Monroe (1758)
The fifth President of the United States. Monroe was the last president who was a Founding Father of the United States, and the last president from the Virginia dynasty and the Republican Generation. His presidency was marked both by an “Era of Good Feelings” – a period of relatively little partisan strife – and later by the Panic of 1819 and a fierce national debate over the admission of the Missouri Territory. Monroe is most noted for his proclamation of the Monroe Doctrine in 1823, which stated that the United States would not tolerate further European intervention in the Americas.
Ps. True facts. You know the painting of George Washington crossing the Delaware? Yeah, Monroe is the one holding the flag! :D
Happy, happy birthday, James Monroe, you wonderful man, you!
And know, I did not know that, that was him!!!!!!
