The Constitution doesn’t provide the right for Kent students to riot. There is no constitutional right to throwing beer bottles at police cars and breaking downtown storefronts, breaking into a bank, lighting a bonfire on the street, burning the campus ROTC building, throwing rocks at firemen and police extinguishing the fire, refusing legal (upheld) orders to disperse and instead throwing rocks and gas canisters at the National Guard, and with it all leading up to a sniper firing a gun on the guardsmen leading them to fear for their lives and rightfully return fire on the rioters.
