Students, like many teenagers, need to "protest" something; it's part of the "growing pains." They don't really have a "real need" to protest now...because they're NOT AT RISK OF BEING DRAFTED INTO THE MILITARY AND GETTING KILLED OR HAVING THEIR ARMS AND LEGS BLOWN OFF! Like they were during the Vietnam War. Those "students" had a need to "protest", they had DRAFT CARDS in their hands (which they often burned during their protests). Today's students don't have draft cards to burn. The only major event that occurred in '89 was Operation Just Cause, the invasion of Panama; and the Berlin Wall came down.
