Here's the link of a possible shooter at Kent State.

With zero forensic evidence.

Even if what you assert is true (it isn't, but let's go with it) would that mean that the order that was given that resulted in 67 shots being fired and a dozen of people being shot was somehow legitimate or right?

Stop talking gak.

Like I told Lynata. I've been in similiar situations.

You've aimed a gun at fellow protesting Americans? Or you were somewhere in the Middle East and were shot at in a country at war? Kinda different there.

No its the same. The difference is would I make the same call as the NG at Kent State. I can't. I was not there. I do not know the situation but whats published. I do know for 20+ soldiers to fire in the same direction then something triggered it. I do know it takes a min to adjust my troops to the line of fire to suppress it. I do know before my troops fired that the source of fire is identified but that's me and my troops.

It does not matter what nationality a person is. The fact is we're getting ready to "opt out"human life.

So you would be just as quick to raise your gun at American citizens on a college campus vs foreign soldiers on a battlefield?

You know what an awesome debate would be? I'd like to see a debate between the Jihadin who claimed the NYPD needed more training when they accidentally shot 9 people when aiming at a man 4 feet away brandishing a pistol arguing with the Jihadin who thinks it's OK for Guardsmen to open fire into a crowd of civilians because someone possibly heard a shot. That would be an awesome argument.

**Frazzled**

You would have to split screen it like Gollum arguing with Smeagol in Two Towers.

**Ouze**

I was inspired by someone who wanted to have a presidential debate between Candidate Obama and President Obama.

Ooh: Zombie Nixon versus Vampire Hunter Lincoln!
