War is NOT a Game

February 16, 2009
Delaware River CODEPINK
Philadelphia, PA


 On Feb. 16, CODEPINK, along with several other peace groups, participated in a "Freeze Action" and protest at the "Army Experience" a high tech center with video/simulation games that can be played for "Free." The Op Ed piece attached to this local spotlight explains our "War is NOT a Game" action very well. We plan to continue to educate the public about the 13 Million Dollars that was used on this project, the first of its kind in the nation...money that the city of Philadelphia could have used for education, jobs, poverty issues, etc.
