Hirosima day

August 6th is Hiroshima Day, the 63rd anniversary of the nuclear bombing of Hiroshima, Japan. That attack, and the bombing of Nagasaki three days later, remain the only nuclear attacks on civilians in history.

In honor of Hiroshima Day, I'd like you to take a minute to reflect on just how absurd it is for America to maintain 10,000 nuclear bombs. They're simply aren't needed and by reducing the nuclear arsenal our country could save billions of dollars in maintenance costs.
