Save the animals and our moral sense

Two demonstrations coming up:-

Thursday 10 January, the weekly demo, and

Saturday 12 January, for the monthly demo

Fighting on for Felix Demo

Saturday 12th January

Meet 12 noon Martyrs' Memorial, St. Giles, Oxford.

MAP

Felix was tortured to death by Oxford University, the first of ten macaque monkeys destined to suffer the same fate in barbaric and worthless brain research that has been refused a licence in other European countries due to the cruelty involved.

Please join us on 12th January to help make it clear to Oxford University that we will not let Felix, and the torment he suffered at their hands, be forgotten, nor will we rest until we ensure that no other innocent animals will suffer the same fate as him.

Weekly Thursday Demos

Don't forget that every Thursday there is a demo opposite the site on South Parks Road, 1pm to 5pm. There will be other protests close to the site and other places around Oxford on most days, so keep in touch. For more details on demos please contact us:

lets hope you lot dont go getting a brain/motor neurone disease because doing so would be so bloody hypocritical of you now wouldn't it? I am sick and tired of reading about what you bullies do to academic establishments and can only hope that you are not so hypocritical as to use drugs to make you better when its a life/death situation e.g. cancer or some nasty brain disease that you guys have been trying to stop the researchers from doing. Don't give up on activism completely just for fucks sake find something better to protest about.

Nice constructive comment Joe...

people who argue for an end to animal experimentation aren't saying that academics should stop looking for cures etc, only that different, more moral alternatives should be used instead. A quick look on the net indicates that there are numerous proposals out there and just a simple bit of research on your part, obviously too much of an ask for you, would reveal the errors in medication that have arose due to using animals as a guideline and the simple pointless of many "medical" tests.

Why are animals used when there are better alternatives available? It possibly couldn't be because they are the cheapest alternative now could it? In the end, that is what does the trick in our capitalist society.

In the future it would be good if you did a bit of research instead of sprouting out the old corporate crap used to defend horrific practices that have been exposed on numerous occasions.

With respect, both of you are to differing degrees incorrect, as both of you, to some degree, believe that vivisection 'works'. As many, many honest doctors and scientists have testified, animal experimentation is not only uesless, but dangerously misleading: witness the 30,000 plus UK deaths from animal 'safety-tested' drugs.

To suggest that this fraudulent practice - done largely in order to provide drug companies with an alibi when their toxins kill and injure - requires some sort of 'alternative' to be found is nonsensical. As vivisection is not in any way scientific, there is no need to find any 'alternative' to it. The only alternative is total abolition, by law. The idea of 'alternatives' is in fact as fraudulent as the practice it pertains to replace, and it is unfortunate that so many well-meaning people have been fooled by it.

Please feel free to visit our website for further info about vivisection, to purchase the books of Hans Ruesch: Slaughter of the Innocent, Naked Empress, and 1000 Doctors Against Vivisection, and Professor Croce's wonderful Vivisection or Science, and to view our downloadable videos proving the harms and cruelties of today's vivisection-based 'modern medicine'.
