Halt the Militarization of Public Lands!

by Antiwar Wednesday, Apr. 06, 2011 at 9:29 AM

The Marine Corps wants to expand their base near Twentynine Palms into public lands that are currently used by families for recreational purposes. They are currently listening to public comments regarding the proposal. Let's fill their ears with opposition to war and militarism!

I oppose the proposal. The public lands are for public use. They should be used for peaceful, recreational purposes, not to train for war. I am concerned about environmental contamination by elements such as lead and uranium that are used in live-fire exercises. These toxins contaminate the air, soil, and potentially the groundwater.

The US is involved in too many wars and there is too much militarism in our society. Expanding training facilities for the Marines will only increase the degree of militarism in our communities, our public lands, our foreign policy, and our society.

Enough already!
