In the Great Depression the owners of the coal mines decided to sell coal below costs. Coal miners' wages were cut 10%, and the United Mine Workers tried to organize the county's mine workers. The miners had a strike, and the situation escalated into violence. Spurred by police brutality and hunger, mine workers began arming themselves, and people got killed. The violence was a result of the events that happened, rather than actually being required.
