It's been a long time, but the image of National Guards firing on students at Kent State is still seared on my brain. It is a message of the danger of escalating emotions when the "topic" is emotionally charged. Violence and death have sadly been part of protests many times in the past 55 years, including 5 years ago at the Capital and yesterday in Minneapolis.
Protest is one of the hallmarks of American freedom and one of the ways we make our collective voices heard. Violence and deadly shooting have no place in the demonstration of our collective voices.
