Six anti-nuclear activists were arrested at around 8 am on August 6 after blocking the road into Los Alamos National Laboratory. The action took place on the 67th anniversary of the nuclear bombing of Hiroshima. At least 50 activists from Trinity Nuclear Abolitionists, (un)Occupy Albuquerque, Occupy Santa Fe, Nuke Free Now and other groups participated in the protest. The action of civil disobedience came a day after a rally in downtown Los Alamos to protest plans for a new plutonium bomb factory there and to remember the dropping of the bombs on Hiroshima (Aug 6) and Nagasaki (Aug 9) 1945.
