University of Iowa to Spend $11 Million on Underground Animal Lab; ALF Liberated 401 Animals There in 2004 June 11: Iowa state Board of Regents approved plans to build an underground vivarium for animal research at University of Iowa. The 35,200 square foot vivarium will be built under a central courtyard between the biomedical discovery facility, Carver Biomedical Research Building and the Medical Education Research Facility on the west side of UI campus. The underground laboratory would provide a more secure location for animal research. A break-in at animal research labs at Spence Laboratories and Seashore Hall in 2004 cost about $425,000 and stalled some research. The Animal Liberation Front claimed responsibility for the break-in.

UCLA Restraining Order Against 5 Activists Made Permanent; Campaign Against Animal Abuse Continues May 29: A Santa Monica judge issued a permanent injunction that aims to protect UCLA researchers from threats and other forms of harassment by aggressive animal rights activists opposed to the use of animals in research. "The injunction is aimed at above-ground protesters who are exercising their constitutional right to free speech," said Dr. Jerry Vlasak, a spokesman for the North American Animal Liberation Press Office, the office that loosely represents the radical animal rights activists. "By making it difficult for these people to speak freely, and by making them stay an unreasonable distance [from the residences of researchers], they are only increasing the number of people who are willing to break the law for this cause."

Mexican Cock Breeder Calls It Quits After ALF Attacks May 25: "Once again we have demonstrated that direct action by means of economic sabotage works and that it is a good option for many imprisoned animals; once again we have closed one of the many centers of animal extermination with imagination, rage, and words converted into action against human anthropocentrism."

Two McDonald's Burn in Mexico May 11-12: "The beautiful sound of the fire spread throughout the establishment activating the alarm. Surely the McImbeciles thought that, with security systems such as this, they would stop the actions which have been carried out for many years by radical groups and individuals around the world; well they were wrong, they spent money for nothing....with one of our easy actions we have shattered their social peace, we have violated their damned private property, we have made a mockery of the 'fast and effective' municipal and state police and we have left our vindicating message: Stop for just a few seconds and see that we have made it all ours! we are everywhere. I'm the one that looks at you with hate behind the window of your luxury car, I am the one that watches you arriving at your work, I am the one that you have as a slave in your elegant home doing your household chores, I'm the one who sits in front of you when you travel on the subway or the bus. we are watching your movements and we are not going to stop until you see yourself destroyed by insurrectional violence for total liberation."

Anton at xxxx Hollywood Boulevard Apartment xxx Los Angeles California 90046.

The irony is that we got these needles from a primate laboratory at ucla." (read more)
