Summary

"Beijing massacre" is more accurate than "Tiananmen massacre" because most of the people killed by the army fell on the streets of Beijing, not inside the square. Tiananmen Square was, however, a site of death and violence: at least five students were shot and killed inside the square, and the army forcibly removed protesters from the Monument to the People's Heroes.
