The collapsing US military & economic empire is making Washington & NATO even more dangerous. US could not beat the Taliban but thinks it can take on China-Russia-Iran...a sign of psychopathology for sure. We must all do more to help stop this western corporate arrogance that puts the future generations lives in despair. @BruceKGagnon

Handing out flyers at BIW today

Peter Morgan and I during a recent Lenten vigil at BIW

Peter Morgan (VFP) and I went to Bath Iron Works today and from 11:00 am to noon handed out 50 of the new conversion flyers made by folks up in Blue Hill peninsula.

We ran out after one hour.  We didn’t bring enough.

I stood along Washington St. with a sign that said ‘Build Wind Turbines’ and handed out maybe a half-dozen flyers.  I had a great conversation with a union official who said he agreed with us and understood they’d get more jobs by building something other than weapons.

Peter went along the northern most part of the shipyard where workers head into downtown Bath for lunch.  He was handing out flyers like they were free cheeseburgers.

We are going back again next Thursday, April 18 at 11:00 am.  Let us know if you’d like to join us.

Bruce
