Animal rights terrorists and their defenders
usually try to argue theyre only concerned with damaging property
to stop experiments or registering their moral outrage, but a recent release
from |Stop Quintiles’ Animal Tests| (SQAT), reveals the true motives
behind the activists direction action.
The release described a recent protest at |Quintiles|,
a laboratory that conducts experiments on animals. Fourteen activists
showed up to harass Quintiles employees as they were leaving work. According
to SQATs press release, employees “were forced to run a gauntlet
of shouting protesters
and several cars belonging to Quintiles
staff were chase up the road by irate demonstrators.”
And the goal of this protest to instill
a sense of terror and fear into the researchers.
Fear was evident
on the faces of many of the workers, both inside the lab and as they were
leaving, and several cowered in their cars in response to the verbal onslaught.
Those who cause fear and terror to innocent creatures had been forced,
in some small degree, to experience those feelings themselves.”
Rhetoric almost identical to the pro-life movements
strategy of intimidating abortion providers and their clients.
