Protesters suck, protesters go home!
Jul. 28th, 2007 04:22 pmMy neighbors just got protester spammed by some variation of SHAC/ALF/PETA protesters of HLS, or Huntington Life Sciences, a company who allegedly "kills 500 animals a day."
Wikipedia entry for SHAC: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop_Huntingdon_Animal_Cruelty
Personally I think its a waste: what is the point, if I can't also eat the delicious animals?
I honestly don't know what kind of research HLS does do, but they have been the target of a guerrilla campaign for some years now, and most recently gave up on plans to open a research facility at Oxford University in England.
SHAC, on the other hand, has had many of its leaders jailed recently, and is one of the many groups named in legislation proposed to stem the tide of Animal Rights protests and protesters:

And the bill itself, the "Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act (AETA)" [rhymes with PETA!]:( AETA )
Will post pictures later!
