Portsmouth Naval Shipyard Protests

On October 23, the P.A.in.T-ers went down to Kittery to protest the development of a $4 million recruitment HQ attached to the shipyard in the first of what was to become a monthly vigil.

THE NEXT PROTEST: SATURDAY NOVEMBER 27, 2010

Here are some photos from the Oct. 23 protest, courtesy of our wonderful V.P. Miss Nicole:

Alex gives peace a thumbs up :)
Classic anti-war slogans from last-minute protester Tyler!
Loving Taylor's sign - RAISE THINKERS, NOT FIGHTERS!!
And yes, Sebastian. War is displeasing.
 Me, talkin' to Bruce Gagnon.
 PEACE!! Lovin' Paul's sign (to the left of me) which spells out the
US '10-'11 budget :(
Our beautiful Vice President Nicole
RAISE LOVE, NOT FIREPOWER!
 Organizer Will Hopkins of NH Peace Action - 
There were signs in Kittery saying "Save The Bridge"
so he was hoping to strike a chord with the locals with his sign.
Seriously, though. $4 million for a recruiting HQ
but our bridges are coming down? Crazy. . .
 Healthcare not Warfare - I like it!
