Which incident involved police killing Vietnam student protesters?

• A. Kent State Killings
• B. Massacre at My Lai
• C. Ho Chi Minh Trail
• D. Geneva Accords

Answer: (A)

Focus on understanding which event involved security forces shooting at student demonstrators in the United States during the Vietnam War era. The Kent State incident happened on May 4, 1970, at Kent State University in Ohio, when members of the National Guard fired on unarmed students protesting the Cambodian invasion, killing four and wounding others. This event became a powerful symbol of domestic unrest and intensified national debate about the war and U.S. government responses to dissent.

In other historic events, the Massacre at My Lai occurred in 1968 in Vietnam, where U.S. troops killed hundreds of Vietnamese civilians, not protesters on American soil. The Ho Chi Minh Trail was a major supply route used by North Vietnam, not an incident of police action. The Geneva Accords were 1954 peace agreements intended to resolve Vietnam's partition and war, not a protest incident.

So, the incident that involved police killing Vietnam student protesters is the Kent State shootings.
