Uh...side-eye-1

I'm afraid to say anythingside-eye-2

But seriously, like maybe to an extent. At least in so far as the pigs aren't just going in there to shoot and kill protestors. Doesn't mean they won't brutalize protestors in other ways of course. And I honestly wonder how many Americans even know about Kent State. Even in my relatively good education I think Kent State was mentioned once or twice from elementary school through college.
