We are a gorilla theater group founded just before the Iraq war operating under the rubric that the only way to reach the American public is through entertainment. We were frustrated with traditional protest because it had become too easily neutralized in the media. We were tired of our towns right leaning Fourth of July parade which we felt really didn't represent the majority of people in Ojai. Ojai is know as a fairly "Arty" place, yet on the Fourth we were bombarded with support the troops, gung-ho, Under God propaganda. And it wasn't even well thought out, well done propaganda. So we dicided to build the U.S.S. Constitution.
