Construction has begun on Pittsburgh's own Gladiator of Resistance.
March 20th is shaping up to be a major day of action around the country against the occupation of Iraq. In Pittsburgh, as detailed in other posts, CMU is involved in building a tactical unmanned ground vehicle under the code-name name of Gladiator. Welcome the frame of Pittsburgh's own Gladiator of Resistance.
Bring out the puppets. Bring out the people. Resist the war machine in Pittsburgh.
More pictures to follow as construction progresses.
Contact POG at http://www.organizepittsburgh.org for more information on March 20th happenings and how to plug in.

That is the shabbiest looking piece of crap I have ever seen. Do you honestly thing it is going to hold up to any kind of load, particularly the load of crap you people are pushing? Look at those joints! A thin metal strap joining two pieces of balsa-wood?
good grief!
at least use metal framing in place of the wood, for strength.

Are those "peace cannons"? Will you shoot t-shirts for IndyMedia out of them to the thronging crowds?

Hey! Saw you guys at the march today. Your tank looked awesome. How'd it hold up against all the rain?
