Following my post - "Without going into too much detail directors at the company where I work (in the north) have recently had paint stripper poured over their cars (and their families cars) had graffiti daubed on their houses, phone calls in the middle of the night and been threatened that forged letters would be sent to their neighbours saying they were child abusers - all this because ANOTHER company in the Group - in the south of country was involved in some lab work at Oxford. If that's defending animal rights what does it make the protestors? "
Quote stupidgirl "Joolstoo, having been very much involved with the animal rights movement, I can well understand the frustration which leads to such acts. I've been involved in similar non-violent direct action. There are certain actions which I don't condone, but again, I can understand the frustration which leads to it. "
so you're telling me you've gone round trashing peoples cars and the like and you think your acts are non-violent? have you any idea the trauma it causes to families who incidentally are in no way linked to the project - except they work for the same group of companies - and you expect what? sympathy for your cause? forget it you really ARE a STUPIDGIRL
