I am angered when compared to the assholes that took down the twin towers and 1000's of lives with them there, the Pentagon, and a field in Pennsylvania. These corporate people have NO care but the bottom dollar. Animal research, give me a break. Animals do not have our exact DNA (although the primates are 99.9 percent the same as us geneticly). Primates eat plants not other animals. WE are truely herbivores, but we keep being told we need good ol' red meat; for what so we die earlier from blocked arteries. Apes also have compassion for humans, we see it everytime some kid falls into their prisons in the Zoos. The child is cared for and protected until the human come in and retrieves the child. I believe, if the apes just ignored the child the authorities would probably have shot the apes (just in case). I think that .01 percent difference is the love and compasion for other species gene, that the apes have and we definately don't have that gene in mass in our collective genepool!

I know Police Officers who are fine people and have a conscience. My best friend is a State Trooper, we have idealogical differences but I know of no better man! I would like to know where these police officers who appearently either get off on the power, or are threathen themselves with no job or insubordination. Where do these police get some of these police state type orders for use in the USA? My strong hunch is the corporate controlled state and federal officials at high levels, being told by the corporations what and who to go after, to protect their mighty dollar. I do see way to many people being beaten and arrested and compared to 911 hijackers for trying to make this a better world to live in for not only human animals, but our non-human animals that need our protection. We all need to lobby Washington to overturn the “Eco-Terrorist” law. It simply is as un-American as anything I have seen Washington ever make into law.

It’s always harder to look within and admit your own shortcomings, isn’t it? I admit, I get embarrassed about mine, too. But government’s just have SO much pride. They’re easily embarrassed.

Cheers for the U.S. government’s hypocrisy! How easy it is to condemn others as long as you get to maintain your own image of cleanness. The American government is absolutely angelic. Land of the Free, you know. We may not be as bad as China, but that doesn’t free us from the need to self-criticize.

SomeGuy,

My rights will not be taken from me gently. For instance, anyone labeling me a terrorist for protecting those who cannot fend for themselves, is actively going to be challenged. It’s my own personal mission to ‘call individuals out’ every time I see this “terrorist” garbage in print or hear it roll off the uninformed tongues of the mindless. Too many people, i.e., AR activists, environmentalists and peaceniks are taking the fetal position and remaining largely silent while being viciously slandered by our govt. and others who have profit motive behind discrediting us. If we all don’t rise to the occasion NOW and put an end to this propaganda, their intent is to first jail us, then kill us. After all, the bottom line with big business IS profits [and more and more of our prisons are being privatized]. It’s not ‘profitable’ to have 100’s of 1000’s of political dissidents requiring food and shelter…and irony of ironies, medical care!! One thing we can ALL do is never EVER allow the terrorist label to ride. Every time a vivisector falls back on this terrorist crap I verbally kick his ass to the curb…so easy to do as they are all such bogus, stinking hypocrites!

BB, that’s the problem with state granted “rights” – the state can just as easily take them away.

I find it funny that nobody has mentioned that these “activist” had targeted over 100 Pittsburgh businesses. Should the police just let these so-called activist just go out and destroy anything they want to?

What I find most outrageous and dangerous, is not only that we are now a full-fledged fascist nation; but other than a few progressives, NO ONE is even discussing the total loss of our rights; and the increasingly ABSURD abuses of our militarized law enforcement. Even Bill Maher and Jon Stewart skirt the subject; and ironically, our comedians nowadays, seem to be the only public figures with a true political /social conscience for rational discussion. We are already past the point of the “thought police”; arresting people for crimes they COULD commit — thanks to McCarthyists like Jane Harman — who should be the first [among many] jailed and executed under her own law for plotting to overthrow our republic. Short of taking to the streets, we are doomed in this country as long as fascism is shrouded in secrecy, because this is the very thing that fuels it; [e.g. lull the people into a continued belief that everything is normal on the surface, while the body beneath rots from metastatic cancer]. Sites like this one help tremendously for those of us actively seeking the truth, and Will you are to be commended for this. But in the end, we need our loss of freedoms to become an ongoing national debate, or the pond scum Harmans, Cheneys and Bushes of this world have won.
