BREAKING
NEWS: FARM Activists Arrested at
Slaughterhouse
At 10:50 am Pacific Time
this morning, FARM president Dr. Alex
Hershaft led a somber protest as a small
group of activists put themselves on the
line in the name of animal freedom. The
setting was Farmer John, the largest
slaughterhouse on the West Coast. As the
transport trucks turned in for their
morning delivery of new victims, they
found the entrance to the slaughterhouse
blocked by two brave people, forcing the slaughter
operations to come to a temporary halt.
Few people can relate to the
tragedy of animal agriculture better than
Alex Hershaft, a holocaust survivor. In
his own words, "The
bucolic murals depicting pigs
cavorting in verdant fields that mask
the brutal slaughter of millions of
innocents behind those Farmer John
walls are just as devious and cynical
as the inscription 'Work makes you
free' upon entering the Auschwitz
death camp."
But
FARM's activists know that actions
speak louder than words. While being
arrested may bring discomfort, it is
nothing compared to the horrors
inflicted on billions of animals each
year. The necessary work is
far from done, so stand in
solidarity with these courageous
demonstrators.
Here are a
few suggested ideas:
- Host a last
minute demonstration at a
slaughterhouse or industry office near
you! Dedicated activists in Los Angeles
are already rallying to support the
arrested. Join the public outcry in your
community!
- Share FARM's
10 Billion
Lives video on your
Facebook to raise awareness about the
issue Dr. Alex Hershaft has dedicated
his life to spreading.
