Direct Action; UK, USA, Spain & Mexico

ANOTHER UCLA VAN OUT OF ACTION (USA)

anonymous report:

"Kudos to whoever lit that UCLA van ablaze a couple of weeks ago. Your action inspired us to look into these vans as well. You were right. They are everywhere.
We effectively removed one of them from it's location in Riverside county last weekend. The funding that UCLA spent on purchasing this particular van will be redirected to save animals rather than the torturing of monkeys that UCLA is doing. Awashed in shame and the blood of innocents UCLA will continue to be held accountable. Hopefully by a rapidly growing number of people doing whtever it takes. Activists: GET OUT THERE!!!"

BRICKS THROWN THROUGH WINDOWS AT ESCADA (Spain)

translation from Acción Vegana  http://www.accionvegana.org:

"Bricks rain on Escada [ZGZ]

We were passing very calmly down the street when we saw some bricks, and facing an Escada shop we believed that it was better for them to end up in their windows than not to be thrown in there ...

Don't take the skin off our brothers and sisters."

PROCTER & GAMBLE PRODUCT TAMPERING (Spain)

translation from Acción Vegana  http://www.accionvegana.org:

"Procter and Gamble attacked

A few weeks ago a well-known daily newspaper received an anonymous call informing them that several bottles of the product HEAD AND SHOULDERS (by the company Procter and Gamble), which had been contaminated with a substance to irritate the skin, were left in several shopping centers and supermarkets in the Iberian Peninsula. There was no way to distinguish them from the uncontaminated bottles and they had been distributed in various shops in Barcelona, Bilbao, La Coruña and Madrid. The same call reported that such actions and others will continue unless Procter and Gamble stops its involvement in the exploitation of animals.

No respite for exploiters. Britches Group"
