Hmmmmmmmmm...okay, so forgetting the sniper for a bit, the throwing rocks, bottles, and all manner of other things, wasn't cause to shoot, either, I suppose?
The nonmilitary casings, found ( please read the article; I don't believe you've really read it in its entirety.), the trajectory of the holes in the metal statuary, etc., all add up to "nothing", and what the doctor's report stated, is also of no consequence too?
And what about the rest of this article and the facts therein, which thoroughly dispute that this was just a bunch of "innocent students", who were mowed down by National Guardsmen, which WAS what the MSM was shoveling at the populace back then?
I didn't need this article, nor a thread on FR to inform of the facts; I've known them for decades. Sadly, you appear to be hung up on one tiny bit of minutia and have nothing of worth to add to the thread. Pity that.....:^)
I saw the film on the evening news. I heard the pops before the guardsmen returned the fire.
As far I am concerned the guardsmen did not kill enough of the sobs.
I heard the Black guardsman say, "Nobody cares what happens to us, he then named someone and said that he got his kneecap crushed by a pipewrench last night but no one cares."
Well, he was wrong on that point. I cared. I was then and still am on the side of the guardsmen. and as I stated before, they should have killed more of the sobs.
