“Nine protesters were arrested for blocking the main gate to Naval Base Kitsap-Bangor on Monday. They were among members and supporters of Ground Zero Center for Nonviolent Action, which holds an annual vigil at the base on the anniversaries of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.”
I humbly suggest that these 9 people peacefully protest P’unggyeri, North Korea the next time the PRK decides to test another weapon. If N.Korean weather is not to their liking, how about Qom, Iran or Islamabad, Pakistan.
What are the odds that these protesters know the reason WHY the bombs were dropped?
No rational person will say nuclear weapons are a good thing. Protesters like this fail to understand much less appreciate the infinitely more complex issues why each nuclear state has nuclear weapons and other states covet nuclear weapons.
