let racist stereotypes die out. the definition of a corporation more or less is a group of people willing to take revolutionary action. in that case, animal defense is a corporation in of itself. cut the stereotypes and kneejerk ignorant bullshit, america.

I’m neutral and Republican on the issue. The facts are there. Animal-tested products and all sentient foods result in serious diseases and premature aging. Military and scientific weapons testing might not be a serious risk to national security but it sure seems like it with the Covance incident in Virgina and Chernobyl also. I’m not trying to spread “race panic” or create terrorists but somone has to take charge of national security and do something obviously. It might as well be the Right and Left.

1. The presentation focused on the American animal rights movement, and profiled an American animal rights conference.
2. The same tactics, warnings, arrests, etc are taking place in the United States.
3. You're right on one point. They're American corporations operating overseas, which corporations frequently do in order to skirt labor laws and civil rights.

all of these people saying that the protesters are exercising their right and all of this talk about first amendment protections but i didnt think American First Amendment rights applied in Europe where the presentation was given. guess i must be wrong.

It seems we have all forgotten that without consuming other life, we cease to exist. Hunters who hunt for food are doing exactly what they should be doing, consuming other life. animals hunt other animals to survive, what makes us different? I think people should distinguish between “sport” hunting, where animals are used for prey and killed for sport, and hunters who hunt for food to feed themselves and their families. Just because vegans think that they are somehow saving the planet, they are using a system that grew out of overpopulation. Agriculture is not what our bodies are designed for. We are hunters and gatherers, that is where we began. But I totally agree that the abuse and torture of animals, including humans, is utterly wrong, but ALL my hunter friends, hunt and eat all their prey, and track any animal they have not killed immeiately until they find them. Hunters for food are much more conscious of what and how they kill their food, please try not to villify people who try to feed their families and connect them to sport hunters with automatic weapons who kill for sport. Do you feel the Native Americans are murderers too, since they are hunters and gatherers, as well as growers of vegetables and grains? Specifics really help, whereas generalizations are lame and misleading. Thank you Will for your website and your devotion to 1st amendment rights, I will be in touch, I am writing a book on all of the abuses that have arisen from our “national interests” and would love to interview you when the time arises. Keep up the good work.
