Clowns Sabotage Nuke Missile: "On Tuesday morning, a retired Catholic priest and two veterans put on clown suits, busted into a nuclear missile launch facility, and began beating the silo cover with hammers, in an attempt to take the Minuteman III missile off-line. Seriously.

The trio -- members of the Luck, Wisconsin group Nukewatch -- said the break-in was part of 'a call for national repentance' for the Hiroshima and Nagaski A-bombings in 1945.

The activists used bolt-cutters to get into the E-9 Minuteman II facility, located just northwest of the White Shield, North Dakota. 'Using a sledgehammer and household hammers, they disabled the lock on the personnel entry hatch that provides access to the warhead and they hammered on the silo lid that covers the 300 kiloton nuclear warhead,' the group said in a statement. 'The activists painted 'It's a sin to build a nuclear weapon' on the face of the 110-ton hardened silo cover and the peace activists poured their blood on the missile lid.'

This was all done while wearing face paint, dunce caps, misfitting overalls, and bright yellow wigs.

'We dress as clowns to show that humor and laughter are key elements in the struggle to transform the structures of destruction and death,' the statement said. 'Saint Paul said that we are 'fools for God's sake,' and we say that we are 'fools for God and hand humanity.' Clowns as court jesters were sometimes the only ones able to survive after speaking truth to authorities in power."

Guards responded within minutes. And when they arrived, the protesters "ate a lot of gravel," DefenseTech was told."

One can only say "what a bunch of f'n idiots." and how in the hell were they able to come so close to a facility to be able to take a hammer to an actual missle silo in the 1st place? If a bunch of clowns can do it, then I imagine a few terrorists could manage it as well, even dressed in clown suits.
