Anti-War March: Inflatable Hammer Bloc

category dublin | anti-war / imperialism | news report author Sunday March 20, 2005 17:33author by redjade Report this post to the editors

in solidarity with the Pitstop Ploughshares

Knife Not Included (Pot of Gold may be acquired by other means)

The 'hammer bloc' arises because we want to show visible solidarity with the Pitstop Ploughshares by having lots of inflatable hammers on the march. You can buy them for around 3 Euro in the O'Carrolls Irish gift stores and there should be some for resale on the bloc itself.

Your time was definitely better spent with these photos.

Good to see people out protesting on behalf of the poor and oppressed, rather than the rich and embarrassed.

I wasnt at the march on Saturday for various reasons. Just wondering if there was any separate action by the "hammer bloc" down at Top Oil, Aviation Authority or whatever... no report of anything up here yet. Thanks

George Bush and Tony Blair are great men, helping defend our ancient ways. Remember, leftists only care about their own sinister agenda and wish to see the people of Iraq chained to non democratic values...

Only messing, it is Jeff here, wishing that I could have gone on the march but could not, and, as usual, hoping something dreadful happens to the warmongering politicians and propagandists, instead of the usual news from Iraq, where, it appears, just like old US Law, your average Iraqi citizen is worth three fifths of brave, democratic citizens of the Western Hemisphere!Cari, Amici, Soldati!

Well done for marching.Bollocks to McGhoul, Myarse. Hernia, BOC, Eoghan Arsses, and all the other mouthy windbags that lie to get fed. Something is wrong.

No.

As far as I am aware there was, unfortunately, no seperate action. People seemed tired.
