__**Ken State Shooting May 4 1970**.__
 * On May 4, 1970, another student rally was scheduled for noon at the Commons on the Kent State University campus. Before the rally began, the National Guard ordered those congregated to disperse. Since the students refused to leave, the National Guard attempted to use tear gas on the crowd.** **Because of the shifting wind, the tear gas was ineffective at moving the crowd of students. The National Guard then advanced upon the crowd, with bayonets attached to their rifles. This scattered the crowd. After the crowd, the National Guardsmen stood around for about ten minutes and then turned around and began to retrace their steps. The Ken State Shooting is a scarey thing to here about it could happen any where at any time.**


 * For an unknown reason, during the retreat, nearly a dozen National Guardsman suddenly turned around and began firing at the scattered students.In 13 seconds,67 bullets were fired some claim that there was a verbal order to fire.Four students were killed and nine other were wounded.Some students who were shot were not even part of the rally,but were just walking to their next class.****The four students who were killed were Allison Krause, Jeffrey Miller, Sandra Scheuer, and William Schroeder. The nine wounded students were Alan Canfora, John Cleary, Thomas Grace, Dean Kahler, Joseph Lewis, Donald MacKenzie, James Russell, Robert Stamps, and Douglas Wrentmore.**
