there were anti war protests all the time in Britain
but i just felt some people were using it as an excuse to cause a rucus and in alot of cases damage to private property and they had no real motivation for doing so.
Secondly if the US doesn't want another arms race then it should negotiate for unilateral disarmament of WMD's since it also has weapons of nuclear and that of toxic/harmful weapons.
if they give reasons for reasearching it fair enough but they don't need to stock pile it and make it into missiles.
