tin soldiers and nixon coming
we're finally on our own
this summer i hear the drumming
four dead in ohio
gotta get down to it
soldiers are gunning us down
should have been gone long time ago
what if you knew her
and found her dead on the ground
how can you run when you know?
--Neil Young
Kent State. May 4, 1970.

Trouble is: That song gets played on Clear Channel Dinosaur Rawk stations and the nutters love it. You don't have to listen to the lyrics! And if you do, you are participating in irony, the greatest American export.

The ignorant fucks don't know what the song is referring to.
I really miss Roger Mudd and Walter Cronkite and real news people.
