“You can’t believe the atmosphere in this town right now—pure, unadulterated HATE,” observed a resident of Kent. “The general opinion is that they had it coming and it’s too bad there were only four.” One middle-aged woman interviewed at random on the street said, “I’m sorry they didn’t kill more. They were warned. They knew what was happening and they should have moved out.” Some townspeople raised four fingers when they passed each other, a silent signal that meant “At least we got four of them.”
