Firstly, why? If people want to blow their money gambling, it's their own affair.

Secondly, the result looks just like drunken idiots smashing a window.

AH


because,

animals are abused and cruelly treated and betted on for fun, for commerce, and specieism says that animals that are not human can be exploited by any means.......thats why. bookies support animal sports.
ALF AND ELF DONT. simple, really, dont you see?

and @AH:

The horseracing industry breeds and kills thousands of horses every year.

You have to remember that to an animal liberationist, animals should be running free and not enslaved by humans. So just the act of keeping horses in stables and forcing them to ride around a track with someone strapped to their backs is bad, never mind shooting the lame or slow ones.

More information here:

Maybe to someone walking past it looks like drunken idiots smashing a window. But the bookies themselves know what it's about, the people reading this article know what it's about, the people reading about it in the local paper next week will know what it's about. It all raises awareness and puts on the pressure.

Animal rights has a long history of propaganda by the deed.

At least the people on here aren't drunkenly walking around doing nazi salutes and urinating on Nottingham's heritage you bone headed cunt.

Piss off back to stormfront where the rest of your scummy friends hang out.

Good work!

I'm sure all the workers (the actual agents of change in society rather than one or two anarchists who did this) will all flood to your cause after this bold and heroic act!

I'm sure the racehorse industry is quaking in its boots n all.

Smashed windows= unethical/impractical company! down with the system!

as far as i know, lots of anarchists have jobs too.
if your famed working class got off their arses, instead of being enslaved by mcdonalds and itv and channel 4 soap operas, or weekend football matches, or holidays in malaga, then maybe it wouldn't have to be lone anarchists doing all the fucking work. you idiot, fucking communists........moaning all the fucking time about the workers. yes the workers are important, but not if they are going to be treated like spazzes who need the yuppie/middle-class/lecture room political idealists to free them because they cant be arsed to do it themselves because the system actually fucking keeps them alive.....im a worker, im an anarchist, whats your point then? that only workers that you say are good enough to act are the only ones who can? do we need permission from communist trolls, proably EDL ones at that?!!

fucking workers, lazy slaves, is what lots of them are....bloody marxist fucking commies at it again......i sound like the trolls now!!

no offence, i just get sick of all the workers rhetoric....where is it getting us all these years since marx? cuba? korea? china? yes, because the workers there are really having a swell time, making all our plastic crap and cars and other shit that keeps the system fed and warm and clothed. give me a fucking break. communism DOES NOT WORK IN PRACTICE. i thought we all knew that?

in terms of smashing a window - its propaganda of the deed. do you know about that? im sure you are aware of that?
one window is seen by thousands around the globe on IM, they get inspired to get off their arse, rather than attend another SWP lecture/demo, and actually decide for themselves, to have the day OFF WORK, to hit back at the system, to fight back, for one moment, knowing that in that moment they are as free and as human as the system is ever going to let them be..................

some people still dont get it...why bother coming on here to moan, if YOU DONT GET IT?
and, as a last point - EVERYDAY people act against the system, and also they live alternative lifestyles, too. so lots is changing, lots is being done, we just need more. and maybe if a few of your gracious, holier than thou workers could lend a hand, we'd get it done a lot fucking quicker? or is there a football match on.........?

erm


legs snapped off like twigs for money

18.12.2009 09:55

When they say a horse broke its leg (as the race horses often do) they really mean that their leg bones snapped off, broken right off as in like snapping a twig in two, except this is a leg.
Due to the pressue of the racing and the breeding, their legs break off under them.
