ALF Liberation at the University of Iowa
ALF Liberation At The University Of Iowa – Communique: The Animal Liberation Front is claiming responsibility for the liberation of 401 animals from the University of Iowa in the early hours of November 14th, 2004. All animals on the third floor of the UI psychology department — 88 mice and 313 rats — were removed, examined and treated by a sympathetic veterinarian, and placed in loving homes. Additionally, two animal labs and three vivisector’s offices were entered and all contents relating to animal research were destroyed. These are: 4th Floor – Spence Labs: Vivisector Ed Wasserman’s lab entered. Dozens of computers and devices used in experiments on live pigeons were destroyed. Basement – Spence Labs: Lab of vivisector Mark Blumburg and others entered. Surgical equipment and small animal stereotaxic devices, as well as “shock boxes” and other instruments of torture destroyed. 4th Floor – Seashore Hall Primate researcher Joshua Rodefer’s office entered. Computer discs, hard drives, paperwork and photos showing Rodefer’s work confining drug addicted primates in small glass boxes removed. The remaining paperwork detailing his monstrous work addicting primates and rats to narcotics was soaked in acid and the computer destroyed. 1st Floor – Seashore Hall Primate researcher Amy Poremba’s office entered. Computers destroyed, documents removed, and the remainder soaked in acid. This raid was carried out to halt the barbaric research of the UI Psychology Department’s 7 primary animal researchers: Professors Poremba …

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but you’re one? dumb motherfuckin’ asshole.
I? curse the day when you were born you sadistic piece of shit…
Ok, thanks for…?
You dont sign anything you? just do it.
Break the law, go to jail! And don’t think for one minute I won’t rat you out! Death threats will only hasten my action! Violence will only add fuel to the fire! Your complete and unconditional surrender is mandatory! You? can’t win! The deck is stacked in my favor!
Where do I sign in for AFL? Is there some movement like? that in Brazil? I’m not aware of any…
This is the bias of the media “accepting responsibility for vandalism”? rather than “responsibility for saving lives and stopping the torture of helpless animals”.
I? love ALF!!
Sorry, no. People tell me to read books every day. Ain’t going to happen. If you can summarize the? main points, great.
Read the book “Sacred Cows? and Golden Geese” it’s a good starting point to answer your questions.
GOOD JOB!!

Leaving them with broken computers as a present? classic <3
Congrats to the ALF for giving those 401 animals a second chance 🙂 Stay safe? guys <3
Animal testing is still needed but in a minimum amount that should, ideally, not harm the subjects. In vivo testing should always be done after the in vitro testing, not for symptom observation but for? safety confirmation, just as in human testing. As for the industry, vivisection and most lab experiments that aren’t used for the confirmation of the safety of a drug are useless and can be done digitally or in vitro. Search Animal Experimentation: The industries behind the industry.
Animal testing still plays a big part in modern science, and will for a while. Can you cite any evidence for any of your claims? So? it is no longer about science, but money? Any evidence, or just speculation?
(cont) There are breeding facilities all over the world that provide all types of animals for tests. Flight companies shipping wild animals across the globe for testing. It is an entire industry. Animal testing is no longer about science, but about money. In the past, it was all about sacrificing a life to save more. Things have changed. ?
Obviously I didn’t utter that information with no source and yes, I will search for the sources if you’re interested. Also, our main subject wasn’t animal testing, but institutionalized speciesism. Yes, I? actually agree with both animal and human testing when needed.Today, there are significantly fewer situations in which testing on a living subject is needed.As I said, the vast majority of situations do not require animal testing,as we have developed safer and more ethical ways for these tests.
(cont)… I’m just trying to argue that animal testing is a good thing. You say it is fine to use animal products if you need them (what does that mean; if a person feels pain is that justification to use an animal product, because it sure ain’t? needed). So it looks like our difference is in whether animal testing works or not. Just look at the split brain procedure, the Polio vaccine, penicillin, classical conditioning, the circulatory system, the diphtheria antitoxin, etc, etc.
No, dolphins’ brains are not all that similar. I guess relatively they are almost identical. But for all intents and purposes, no. Can you cite any sources for the evidence that we have similar brains to dolphins and? that certain parts of their brain surpasses ours (whatever that means)? I’m not talking about behavior. Sure, pain behaviors are not isolated amongst mammals. I’m talking about qualia, the subjective experience, our higher processing centers….
(cont3) But the reality is that the majority of humans do not need to? kill other animals to survive. Not killing them doesn’t mean we put their species above ours, but that we simply refuse to uselessly harm them. A life is a huge price for a hamburger.
Also, I don’t use leather, fur and other products that I can avoid, but at the end of the day, everything is obtained through the suffering of an animal or even a human. I can’t claim to be 100% cruelty free.
