I grew up in Ohio, and it's not any worse than any other Midwest place, although our neighbors were murdered with a hatchet by their own son when I was a kid. What was scarier was he (the murderer) was in our boy scout troop. I remember him throwing hatchets at trees for fun....

Uwe touches a sore spot...

As an Ohio resident:

I will go to my grave believing Gov. Jim Rhodes wanted to make an "example" of students Kent State...I may be wrong, but that is what I believe.  

Dave, delete if this is offensive

That's history, not current politics. And just like there was no imaginable justification for the assassination attempt on Reagan there was no excuse for the shooting of those students. Wrong is wrong - irrespective whether viewed from the left or right. I'm sure we can all agree on that.

IIRC Joe Walsh was at the event...

Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...
