This home is dedicated to being a Nuclear Free Weapons Zone and its sign declares “40 miles from the largest single stockpile of nuclear warheads in the U.S.”
I confirmed this in an online article that states “The Trident submarine base at Bangor, just 20 miles from Seattle, has become home to the largest single stockpile of nuclear warheads in the U.S. arsenal“.
Recently in Tacoma five peace activists, the Plowshare Five, were sentenced to time in jail because of their form of political protest. It is a fascinating story and one well worth reading. The best source of information is their blog at http://disarmnowplowshares.wordpress.com/
My hat is off to them for living their beliefs.
