...theory that those standing around were just as responsible for a riot as those hurling beer cans is true, assuming that there is a riot in progess. In this case, there was no riot until the police came, and it is hardly fair to suggest that students quickly run away before the ob-of their attendance, in this case Walt Kelly, had arrived.
