Kent State Massacre: May 4, 1970
ByYesterday, I noticed some people discussing the Kent State Massacre on Facebook. I had never heard of it. Not a word. So after a little googling and reading through wikipedia I was sitting at my computer heart stricken. Kids died for giving their opinions. Kids didn’t just die. Kids were killed.
It makes me absolutely sick.
This morning I came across this interview about the Kent State Massacre and was absolutely enthralled.
“I still remember it so crystal clear, like a dream you will never forget…or a nightmare. I still remember every moment. It kind of went in slow motion like a car accident.”
As most of my readers know, I am a philosophy student. I believe that people are inherently good. That we all want the same things. That we are looking for the same end but taking different paths. It is stories like this that make me wonder. Not make me stop believing…but at least start to wonder. What is going on with the world.
People think that I am crazy.
You can too, that is fine.
But this….this breaks my heart.
