1. Let's hear someone compare this

to the peaceful protests of the 1960's.

2. I wasn't there in person

But my recollection was a fair bit of arson.

A quick Google search would indicate several dozen campus rotc buildings bombed or burned down.

3. Johnson Hall on the campus of the University of Oregon

The building was the site of an explosion in April 1970 due to four to five sticks of dynamite set outside its basement window. The building was one of several that were subject to makeshift bombings in the late 1960s and early 1970s, a list which included the $75,000 damage done to Prince Lucien Campbell Hall in October 1970. Johnson’s damage was estimated at $8,660. The bomber was never identified.


The 60's were much more radical than most people realize.
