    25th Anniversary pin for the KENT STATE SHOOTING 3.375 Dia. made by AB&S who later became (Bob Alexander's) Guardfrog maker of some great mostly limited edition buttons. (some of the 1st buttons I uploaded are Guardfrog, A few of his pins have sold for up to $1000.00 each)
    This button is reminding us to INQUIRE LEARN AND REFLECT least we repeat the same crap, This button shows the May 4 1970 date of the Kent State University shooting and lists the 4 students killed Sandra Lee Scheuer, Will Schroeder, Allison Krause and Jeffrey Miller
    The Kent State shootings (also known as the May 4 massacre or the Kent
    State massacre) occurred at Kent State University in Kent, Ohio, and
    involved the shooting of unarmed college students by the Ohio National
    Guard on Monday, May 4, 1970. The guardsmen fired 67 rounds over a
    period of 13 seconds, killing four students and wounding nine others, one
    of whom suffered permanent paralysis.
    Also remembered by Neil Young in the song "Ohio"
    "Tin soldiers and Nixon's coming"
    The song and story are on the video below.
