Appropriate Selection Of Apparel
It seems some anti-nuclear protesters chose a particularly appropriate selection of apparel during their stunt. They broke into a Minuteman III missile launch complex and attacked the silo lid with hammers.
The activists used bolt-cutters to get into the E-9 Minuteman II facility, located just northwest of the White Shield, North Dakota. "Using a sledgehammer and household hammers, they disabled the lock on the personnel entry hatch that provides access to the warhead and they hammered on the silo lid that covers the 300 kiloton nuclear warhead," the group said in a statement. "The activists painted 'It's a sin to build a nuclear weapon' on the face of the 110-ton hardened silo cover and the peace activists poured their blood on the missile lid."
This was all done while wearing face paint, dunce caps, misfitting overalls, and bright yellow wigs.
Defense Tech reports the protesters "ate a lot of gravel" when guards arrived. Since it is the group's stated position that it is immoral to build a nuclear weapon, I suggest they immediately carry their protests to Iran and storm one of the Iranian facilities.
Their diet would change though. It would contain a much higher percentage of lead.

Now, now, let’s at least try to be consistent. We’re all upset the NY Times and LA Times exposed our efforts to monitor terrorist financial transactions, yet you seem to have no difficulty outing the Democrat double super secret plan to end Iran’s WMD program.
Keep this up and you’ll get no ketchup for your fries. You do want fries with those crab cakes, right?

Oh, no, Gaius. You just don’t UNDERSTAND. If the eveel United States hadn’t build them in the first place, then no one else would have built them.
Indeed, the very laws of physics would have changed, and the world would have been a better place. No one would have built nuclear weapons, if the US hadn’t done so first.
At least that’s what the penguins want you to believe…

No, the penguins are basically harmless, although Black Jack does think they are gastronomic treats. The ones we shuld be keeping a very close eye on is the puffins. They are acting way too cute.

What about the loons?
Oh, they’re already out…in force.

Yep.
