  • Doug Guthrie, a Times reader, recalls the day at Kent State when the Ohio National Guard shot and killed four students, including one of his friends. Decades later, he sees parallels between the anti-war protests of the 1960s and ‘70s and today's college demonstrations, noting disturbing violence against protesters then and now.

    The Vietnam era protests led to the end of combat operations in Vietnam, lowered the voting age to 18 in 1971, and ended the draft in 1973.

    Thank you for sharing this story. I was a protester for peace back then. My heart is breaking for our country.

    Why use force? Do you think reason will work better?

    I discovered what happens when you really fight for human rights in the USA. Sadly, I don’t think too many people will miss this country to be honest.
