Saturday Night Edonism in Brighton

Greedophobe | 23.01.2005 14:20 | Anti-militarism | South Coast

As many Brightonians were having it large down town some local pixies were having some fun out of town at local arms dealers EDO/MBM Technology, responsible for the manufacture of instruments of death such as bomb-release machanisms and tank diagnostic systems.

The wee creatures felt unable to spend their Saturday night in a 'civilised' fashion down town or staying in with a video and pizza. Their thoughts turned instead to matters such as the devastation of Falluja and other Iraqi cities facilitated by companies such as EDO/MBM.
Venting their rage at such vile and immoral business in their back yard these pixies redesigned EDO's front door, the latest in a string of attacks aimed at making the war-mongers face up to their responsibility for needless suffering across the world and engage solely in civilian production, which already accounts for part of their output.
Until EDO recognises the demands of the local community and acts on them locals will feel obliged to engage in the most effective forms of direct action against them whether on Saturday night or any other time of the week.

Look Seriously

13.10.2006 01:55

I've only got here via google whilst looking for something else. But I still feel moved to state my point, do not you/you/you/any of you have better things to do than attempting to shut down british businesses that make semi relevant bomb parts? Seriously? Would these parts be any more or less deadly if made overseas? Pick your targets and pick them well. These cunts are neither here nor there in the state of world affairs. Surely?
