Do not believe that for a moment. That is their excuse for being what they are. And what is that you ask? Their actions speak for themselves. These people are nothing but Terrorists!
These people want you to believe that arson is merely an exercise of Free Speech. IT IS NOT!!!
These Eco-terrorists consider this to be a nonviolent campaign because they say that they take all precautions not to harm any animal (human or otherwise).
But wait, a statement from Robin Webb contradicts that last statement.
From the Press Office of the Animal Liberation Front.
"Some say it is morally unacceptable but it is equally unacceptable to use animals in experiments. The children of those scientists are enjoying a lifestyle built on the blood and abuse of innocent animals. Why should they be allowed to close the door on that and sit down and watch TV and enjoy themselves when animals are suffering and dying because of the actions of the family breadwinner? They are a justifiable target for protest."
-- Robin Webb, Press Officer Animal Liberation Front
These Terrorists are not non-violent by any stretch of the imagination. By his own admission, Robin Webb clearly states that children are a justifiable target. By protesting outside of the homes of the breadwinner, the children become victims of the protesters by design. No parent wants to see their children scared in their own home.
Let us take a look at a quote from Rodney Coronado, the founder of the ALF.
"When you use violence, you've got to expect violence in return."
-- Rodney Coronado of the Animal Liberation Front explaining and justifying the use of violence in the Animal Rights Movement
The people the ALF targets have not broken the law. They are the ones that are attacked. Those that associate with the ALF believe that their targets are violent and feel justified in using violence against them.
From the North American Animal Liberation Press Office:
The North American Animal Liberation Press Office (NAALPO) was founded to communicate the actions, strategies, and philosophy of the animal liberation movement to the media and the public. Many of these actions are illegal under a current societal structure that fails to recognize the rights of non-human animals to live free of suffering, but validates and promotes the "right" of industries to do whatever they want to animals for profit or research. Within these conditions, those in the underground working for animal liberation often cannot speak out directly. Nevertheless, their actions and message is urgent and deserve to be heard and understood. Since animal liberation actions either go unreported in the media or are uncritically vilified as "violent" and as "terrorist" with no attention paid to the suffering that industries and individuals gratuitously inflict on animals, NAALPO seeks to clarify the motivation and nature of actions taken in defense of animals.
The Press Office also tries to provide a historical, social, and philosophical context for an objective understanding of the nature and motivation of illegal direct actions taken on behalf of captive animals.
By their own admission from their own website, they advocate illegal direct actions against those that they do not like.
From the Animal Liberation Front website:
Because ALF actions are against the law, activists work anonymously, either in small groups or individually, and do not have any centralized organization or coordination.
The Animal Liberation Front consists of small autonomous groups of people all over the world who carry out direct action according to the ALF guidelines.
Any group of people who are vegetarians or vegans and who carry out actions according to ALF guidelines have the right to regard them as part of the ALF.
The A.L.F. guidelines are:
- TO liberate animals from places of abuse, i.e. laboratories, factory farms, fur farms, etc, and place them in good homes where they may live out their natural lives, free from suffering.
- TO inflict economic damage to those who profit from the misery and exploitation of animals.
- TO reveal the horror and atrocities committed against animals behind locked doors, by performing non-violent direct actions and liberations.
- TO take all necessary precautions against harming any animal, human and non-human.
"...against harming any animal, human and non-human." These people suggest that children can be fair targets. There is NOTHING civilized about any of these Terrorists.
"Animal rights advocates have a bad public image, and are looked at like they're either slightly crazy, or extremists, or terrorists, but the people who paint that picture are those in the business of abusing animals."
-- Tom Regan, Emeritus Professor at North Carolina State University
All you have to do is to read "The True Agenda of the Animal Rights Movement" and the truth of what those in the Animal Rights movement have to say comes out loud and clear.
This is a good example of the hypocrisy of these groups.
These people are not the "Peace Loving", "Non-Violent" activists that they want the public to see. And make no mistake, they are very active in America.

Communiqué from the Animal Liberation Front
Date: May 11, 2009
Institution targeted: McDonald's Restaurant
In the early morning hours of May 7, a cell from the Frente de Liberación Animal was planning to hit two targets in the commercial area of the City of Coacalco in Mexico State, but to our surprise there were already a lot of people around these targets, on their way to monotonous jobs and boring schools. Because of that we decided to postpone our action for another day and to find new targets to attack.
The darkness covered our silhouettes and the moon illuminated our feelings of freedom.
Crossing the avenue we decided to hit a bank, for being one of the icons of the capitalist system, the destroyer of the planet, the animals and humans; we painted an anarchist symbol on their windows and busted a few of them.
Minutes later, we arrived at a McDonald's, the aberrant establishment of junk food which had already been attacked on several occasions last year, by another cell of the FLA in August and by the MDA (Militias for the Rights of Animals) in October. We felt that the employees and the manager had not received enough punishment with the threatening graffiti, the paint poured on their windows and the fake bomb, so we decided to paint 'Our words are not lies' and the symbol of the ALF, and to open one of their windows (which to our surprise was not locked) and break through a gate that protected their computers and other valuable things, to spill enough gasoline to light it on fire.
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. Having discussions with the incompetent Coacalco authorities to protect their business of death, having police bastards at their door every night guarding the site, did nothing for them; 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!
After the sabotages, the bank as well as the McDonalds were guarded by municipal and state police. We know of the new special groups that are in different municipalities in Mexico State; neither their repressive bodies nor their investigations, nor their surveillance cameras can stop us, 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.
Take note of the disdain they have for Capitalism and the attitude they show for people "on their way to monotonous jobs and boring schools." The entire movement is nothing more than an elitist and selfish attitude. Do not be fooled into thinking that they care about anyone other than themselves. To them, nothing beyond their narrow-minded way of thinking matters or has any level of importance. They clearly have no respect for the law or society at all. This attack was not done to save any animals. It was an attack on the one thing they hate the most - Capitalism.
Here is another act of terrorism from the NAALPO website.
Communiqué from the Justice Department
Date: March 26, 2009
Institution targeted: UCLA Primate Vivisection
We sent three 'greeting cards' to three nasty primate vivisectors, one to Edythe London at xxxx Edgely Place Los Angeles California 90024, one to Joaquin Fuster at xxxx Pesquera Drive Los Angeles California 90049 and one to Peter A. Anton at xxxx Hollywood Boulevard Apartment xxx Los Angeles California 90046. In each we sent four needles dipped in rat poison strategically placed so when they opened the letter one of the needles would puncture them. The irony is that we got these needles from a primate laboratory at ucla.
What goes around comes around. Not that getting stuck with a needle is going to do much to these sick bastards who confine, torment and drive primates psychotic, but just know this.
When you least expect it, in a hallway or on an elevator, in the stairwell or going to your car after torturing primates all day, you'll get a much bigger puncture from a 10cc syringe right in your back filled with rat poison, and we'll be gone so fast you'll never know who did it. We know where you go during the day, we know where you do your dry cleaning, we know where you shop and we know that you will end up being cornered and taught a lesson you and your family will never forget. Until you end your experimentation on primates, we'll be in your life forever watching, waiting and then doing to you exactly what you do to them.
Justice Department
This is what terrorists from the Animal Liberation Front consider "Non-Violent" and "Peaceful" activism. They sign the communiqué the "Justice Department". It is clear that they truly believe they have the right to distribute their brand of justice without any consideration or respect for any law.
There is no doubt of their intention if demands are not met. They wish to kill someone that does not share their narrow-minded view of the world.
Birds die as Animal Rights Activists
claim torching of zoo in Italy
On 25 February 2009, dozens of birds were killed at a private zoo in Italy in an arson attack claimed by radical animal rights activists. Several Molotov Cocktails were used to start the fire which killed some 40 hawks, buzzards and owls in an aviary at the Zoom Zoo near the northern city of Turin.
"This is for the imprisoned animals - Animal Liberation Front'" was found spray-painted in red near the scene of the early morning attack.
So much for their so-called love of animals. So much for their desire not to cause any harm. So much for their mantra not to harm any living thing. Their intended target was the animals. They were not so much killed as burned alive.
The Attack on Lynn Fairbanks
The Animal Liberation Front took credit for leaving a "Molotov Cocktail" outside the Bel-Air home of a UCLA primate researcher. The ALF boasted in a Communiqué that it had left a bottle filled with a flammable liquid on the porch of Lynn Fairbanks' home in Bel-Air on June 30, 2006. The problem is that the explosive device was mistakenly placed on the doorstep of the faculty member's neighbor, a 70-year-old woman. This level of incompetence speaks volumes about the organization, but the failed arson attempt points at a much more basic failing of the group.
This organization originally centered its efforts on nonviolent resistance such as releasing test subjects from laboratories. But their tactics have grown to include fire-bombings, vandalism and physical attacks. They have threatened people connected to animal testing. And now, they are endangering and targeting innocent people.
It was only by chance that the Molotov Cocktail failed to explode. According to arson investigators, had the device functioned properly, the 70-year-old woman and her tenant would have had a very difficult time escaping because the house is backed against a hillside. These people almost killed innocent people. And it was done with total and complete indifference whether or not anyone was hurt or killed.
How do ALF supporters defend actions like this? How can you defend the attempted fire-bombing of Lynn Fairbanks' and her 70 year old neighbor by the ALF?
"Force is a poor second choice, but if that's the only thing that will work ... there's certainly moral justification for that."
-- Jerry Vlasak, ALF spokesman, commenting on the attack on Lynn Fairbanks and her elderly neighbors
"That is so like you ultra right wingers. Go ahead, bring up a very terrible mistake that a good hearted organization made. Yeah it was terrible but it was a mistake or else they wouldn't have done it under the ALF!"
-- Marcus Garcia, Animal Liberation Front supporter referencing the botched firebombing
This is how warped these people are. First of all, they make the incorrect assumption that the ALF is a "Good Hearted Organization" instead of a violent Terrorist organization. The so-called good intentions are all that matter. Their highly illegal use of Molotov Cocktails is no reason to judge them as criminals or terrorists. If the Molotov Cocktail had functioned properly as it was intended and the 70 year old woman and her tenant had died in proceeding fire, it would have been considered a mistake but with the best of intentions. They have no respect for human life. Sure, they have the disclaimer to harm no one, but what happens when they do harm or kill someone. How are they going to be punished for their "mistake"? They are not going to take responsibility for their actions and they do not want to suffer the consequences of their crimes.
These domestic terrorists believe they hold the moral high ground, but such is not the case as their actions are immoral, illegal, and are those of cowards.

UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE
Linda Faith Greene, 61 (pictured to the right), and Kevin Richard Olliff, 22, were arrested and charged in the attempted firebombing of UCLA researcher Lynn Fairbanks' home. Linda Greene is a Press Officer with the North American Animal Liberation Press Office. Both pleaded not guilty to 10 felony charges after their arrest Thursday. Greene was held on $450,000 bail and Olliff on $460,000 bail.
$500,000 is being offered to help find the people behind five additional attacks on UCLA researchers. The latest addition to that fund comes from the Los Angeles City Council, which is chipping-in $100,000. The attacks began back in 2006 and the most recent was March 2009.
As of April 2009, the FBI, UCLA and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives have increased the reward from $60,000 to $115,000 for information leading to the people who left the fire bomb at the home of UCLA researcher, Edythe London.
The Firebombing of Professor David Feldheim
On Saturday morning, 02 August 2008 at 5:30 AM, a firebomb erupted in the nearby townhouse of assistant biology professor David Feldheim. Trapped in the house, David Feldheim, his wife, and their 7-year-old son and 6-year-old daughter used a drop ladder to escape from a second-floor bedroom. The ALF terrorists tried to murder an entire family while they were sleeping.
This terrorist act was committed in the early hours of the morning when the family was home sleeping comfortably in their beds. They were not at the mall when this terrorist act was committed. The intent was to trap the entire family in a burning house in hopes of them burning to death. It was only with luck and emergency preparedness that the family escaped a fiery death. This is an example of Terrorists trying to burn children in their beds on a Saturday morning. What is all this we keep hearing about "non-violent" actions - there is nothing "non-violent" about these people.
Perhaps a couple of quotes from the ALF spokesman, Jerry Vlasak.
"...if you had to hurt somebody or intimidate them or kill them, it would be morally justifiable."
-- Jerry Vlasak
"It won't ruin our movement if someone gets killed in an animal rights action. It's going to happen sooner or later. The Animal Liberation Front, the Earth Liberation Front -- sooner or later there's going to be someone getting hurt. And we have to accept that fact. It's going to happen. It's not going to hurt our movement. Our movement will go on. And it's important that we not let the bully pulpit of the FBI and the other oppression agencies stop us from what we're doing. They are the violent ones. They are the terrorists ... we have to keep doing what we're doing."
-- Jerry Vlasak
A firebomb was also set destroying a car belonging to another UCSC scientist.
In the recent past, wanted posters warned UC Santa Cruz researchers: "Animal abusers everywhere beware; we know where you live; we know where you work; we will never back down until you end your abuse."
The attacks came four days after police obtained animal rights pamphlets left at a Santa Cruz coffeehouse that contained the names and home addresses of university scientists.
The pamphlets read:
"Animal abusers everywhere beware, we know where you live."
Molecular biologist David Feldheim, whose front door was charred, was listed in the pamphlet. According to his Website, Feldheim's lab uses mice to study the development of brain functions involved in eyesight.
Police and the FBI would not identify the researcher whose car was destroyed but said that person was not named in the pamphlet.
What does Dr. Jerry Vlasak, spokesperson for the ALF have to say? Well... he actually applauded and defended the firebombing attack and attempted murder of four people sleeping in their beds.
"The University of California has been selected as the poster child of animal abuse at laboratories. It's been shown that the tactics are more effective if you just hit one person over and over and get them to quit what they're doing."
-- Jerry Vlasak, ALF spokesman and a physician in Los Angeles, speaking about the firebombing of David Feldheim's home, forcing him, his wife and their two young children to flee down a fire escape
"If their father is willing to continue risking his livelihood in order to continue chopping up animals in a laboratory than his children are old enough to recognize the consequences. This guy knows what he is doing. He knows that every day that he goes into the laboratory and hurts animals that it is unreasonable not to expect consequences."
-- Jerry Vlasak, ALF spokesman and a physician in Los Angeles, speaking about the firebombing of David Feldheim's home, forcing him, his wife and their two young children to flee down a fire escape
"The inconvenience and the suffering of any children or any family members pales in comparison to the suffering and oppression that goes on in these animal laboratories."
-- Jerry Vlasak, ALF spokesman and a physician in Los Angeles, speaking about the firebombing of David Feldheim's home, forcing him, his wife and their two young children to flee down a fire escape
"This is historically what happens whenever revolutionaries begin to take the oppression and suffering of their fellow beings seriously, whether human or nonhuman. It's regrettable that certain scientists are willing to put their families at risk by choosing to do wasteful animal experiments in this day and age."
-- Jerry Vlasak, ALF spokesman and a physician in Los Angeles, speaking about the firebombing of David Feldheim's home, forcing him, his wife and their two young children to flee down a fire escape
The city of Santa Cruz is offering $30,000 a reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the individual or individuals involved in this attempt to kill an entire family.
The Attack on Linda's Fashions
The ALF took credit for an attack on Linda's Fashions and Fur Salon in Geistown, a tiny suburb of Johnstown, PA. A former steel town about 60 miles east of Pittsburgh, Johnstown is known for catastrophic floods in 1889, 1936 and 1977.
This is directly from the NAALPO website.
Communiqué from ALF activists
Date: June 14, 2007
Institution targeted: Linda's Fashions and Fur Salons
Received anonymously
On 6/14/2007 at approximately 4:30am, Linda's Fashions and Fur Salons, at 903 Old Scalp Avenue, Johnstown, PA, was visited under cover of night by masked activists. The letters ALF were spraypainted on the building, and a cinderblock was thrown through the front door. This action was carried out in solidarity with Earth Liberation Prisoner Jeffrey Luers, who recently began Year seven of his almost 23 year sentence, and all others who refuse to compromise in defense of our earth. We refuse to be intimidated by the forces of government repression, and we refuse to forget our comrades. Until all the cages are empty and all are free, our struggle continues. This is not the last you'll see of us Linda.
What does Linda's Fashions and Fur Salon have to do with Jeffrey Luers? Nothing at all!!! It is doubtful that the owners of Linda's Fashions have even heard of Jeffrey Luers. There is one more thing that has been overlooked... Linda's Fashions does not sell furs.
Dr. Jerry Vlasak, a trauma surgeon who serves as spokesman for the North American Animal Liberation Press Office in Woodland Hills, CA, blamed the business for advertising itself as a fur salon, but said he had no firsthand knowledge about what was sold there.
This is where Jerry Vlasak blames the victim, the owners of the ladies clothing store and not the actual criminals. In fact, he does everything he can to cover for them. He defended the vandalism of a store merely because of the name. He could not care any less about right and wrong.
"I think they just put themselves in the line of fire by calling the business a fur salon", Vlasak said. "It would be unlikely that they would call themselves a fur salon if they didn't have anything to do with fur."
The fact that they do not sell furs nor have they for over a decade had nothing to do with it, the store kept the name because they were known by that name. Locals refer to the store as "Linda's Fashions" and it is known as a women's clothing store. Here is a store that has done exactly what these anti-fur, radical environmental, eco-terrorists want every store to do. They stopped selling fur almost 20 years ago, sometime during the last millennium and yet they are still targeted.
Vlasak said the activists who targeted the building might have made an "error", but said it was "unlikely someone would risk jail time without doing a little research about what the business sold."
They made an "error"... Wait until they kill someone while making one of these "errors".
"It's kind of disingenuous that someone would call themselves a fur salon and not sell furs. Doesn't make much sense to me," Vlasak said.
If only the owners of Linda's Fashions and Fur Salon were aware they should have cleared their name with Jerry Vlasak prior to opening for business, this mistake would not have happened. Jerry, it is not supposed to make sense to you because IT IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS! You are not involved with anything related to this women's clothing store other than to encourage immoral and unethical people to commit acts of vandalism and then try and legitimize their actions. They used to sell fur, but they do not anymore. Is that not the goal of the Animal Rights Movement? We did not realize that it was about changing the name of stores.
"Historically, activists are careful in researching their targets ahead of time," Vlasak said. He refused to say the activists made a mistake.
You mean when they place a "Molotov Cocktail" at the wrong address or when they vandalize a ladies clothing store because they never bothered to enter the store and check the inventory on display. Maybe they just do not care about others as we have suggested on this website. Maybe they just do not like the practice of capitalism. It is clear that they do not care who they harm.
Earlier this year, an Oregon appeals court upheld Jeffrey Luers' convictions but ruled he'd been sentenced incorrectly. It reduced his prison sentence to 11 to 13 years, from the 22 years, eight months originally imposed.
And in response to this reduction in sentence, a clothing store that does NOT sell furs and has nothing to do with Jeffrey Luers, was attacked.
These people are terrorists and need to be stopped!!!
The Attack on Dr. Eliot Spindel
On Christmas Day 2006, a group of people in masks showed up at the homes of four Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) scientists and a note was placed on a door that read "Quit your job tomorrow, or nobody escapes," and "If you heed this advice, then you won't live in fear." A little vandalism with spray paint was added just for good measure. Several researchers at the OHSU have been targets of harassment for years by members of the ALF.
On Tuesday, July 31,2007, Animal Liberation Front saboteurs threatened to make an example of an Dr. Eliot Spindel, possibly with fire bombs, if he does not "quit the torture industry and issue an apology" for his work.
These extortionists/terrorists not only want Dr. Eliot to do what they say, by demanding an apology, they want Dr. Spindel to legitimize their actions.
"Our message to Eliot is simple: Quit the torture industry and issue an apology or we swear we will make an example of you," the ALF wrote in a claim of responsibility released late Thursday by the North American Animal Liberation Press Office. "What's going to be next... spray paint, broken windows or fire bombs?"
"Look out behind you, Eliot. We have thousands of supporters and more every day. Whatever they pay you in one year, we promise we can match in damage in one night."
Dr. Spindel's garage door had also been spray-painted with a threat: "ALF eyes on you!" A car belonging to the researcher's daughter was also vandalized.
Allow us to explain what they really mean.
"Just do what we say and nobody gets hurt."
"If you don't do what we say, then we will terrorize you."
"Your families are fair game. Who knows where and when we might run into them."
"If you reject our point of view, we will FORCE you to accept it through terror, intimidation, and violence."

Animal Liberation Front Bomber Jailed For 12 Years
Animal Liberation Front's leading bomber was jailed for 12 years and placed on life license. Donald Currie targeted the home of Paul Blackburn, an executive for GlaxoSmithKline in September last year, placing a device made of matches, cigarettes and a bottle of white spirit on the doorstep. It exploded into large fireball shortly after being discovered at 11pm. The businessman was away but his family was asleep inside at the time. The attack on the family followed years of phone calls and intimidation at their home. On March 26, this year, Currie attempted to bomb the car of Caroline Brooks, the sales and marketing manager of a firm called PDP Couriers, which carries out work on behalf of a subsidiary of HLS.
These people with the ALF have no problem about killing people. It was only by luck that no one was killed in this act of terrorism. People have been targeted for execution. THESE PEOPLE ARE TERRORISTS!!!
The Attack on Stuart Rabinowitz
This is directly from the NAALPO website.
Communiqué from ALF activists
Date: December 23, 2005
Institution targeted: HLS Customer GlaxoSmithKline
Reported anonymously, 12/23:
Last night the ALF vandalized the home of president of Hofstra University, Stuart Rabinowitz. We did this because he and the university made the poor choice of naming Collin Goddard, CEO to OSI Pharmaceuticals the keynote speaker at their mid-year graduation commencement. Collin's financial partner is GlaxoSmith Kline VP Robert Ingram, one of Huntingdon Life Science's largest customers. Collin, Robert, GSK and OSI have not been able to grasp the message that supporting HLS is not acceptable. What we did is just the tip of the iceberg when looking at what we have in store for their camp. So we took aim at Stuart Rabinowitz and made it loud and clear that if you climb in to bed with Collin and GSK they can expect a whole lot of grief. Stuart Rabinowitz's whole house was covered with spraypainted slogans. Everyone who is in arms reach of GSK and HLS can expect similar treatment.
Keep in mind that they did not target Huntingdon Life Science; they targeted Stuart Rabinowitz, the president of Hofstra University because he named Collin Goddard as the keynote speaker at their graduation ceremony. Collin Godard is the CEO to OSI Pharmaceuticals who is a financial partner of GlaxoSmith Kline VP Robert Ingram who is a customer of Huntingdon Life Science as the keynote speaker at their graduation ceremony. That was Stuart Rabinowitz's crime. He had nothing to do with HLS yet his house was vandalized and he continues to be a target. Who is next, the grocery store where GlaxoSmith Kline VP Robert Ingram's wife does her grocery shopping?
We at TargetOfOpportunity.com have been warning the public for years about these Terrorist groups. Make no mistake; these are acceptable tactics to these Domestic terrorists. They have no problem killing people. It was only by chance that no one died and by his comments, Dr. Jerry Vlasak agrees with these tactics.
How can any rational person consider these actions not to be terrorism? The people involved in committing this crime are terrorists by every definition of the word!

Activists Working the Late Shift... At the Animal-Abuser's Home
Determining where battles are fought in a war is crucial in gaining the edge on ultimate victory. When we, as activists, wage war at the homes of animal abusers, the playing field levels off in our favor. It is becoming increasingly difficult to maintain effective street campaigns against massive and faceless corporations, especially when the opposition is holed up in high-rise buildings and secured complexes. When access to public protest is cut off, bringing the message home isn't only an alternative; it's an effective necessity. Attacking the home, making it personal, attaches a face to those responsible for inflicting pain on animals.
This Isn't Avon Calling...
When we strike at home, the abusers no longer have the comfort of working behind the security blanket of company-subsidized protection. The animal abuser is no longer able to keep work separate from his personal life, creating a host of financial and psychological problems that demonstrate the efficacy of targeting the opposition at home. After all, isn't it true that "home is where the heart is"?
Everyone has to eat and sleep. Historically, these basic human needs have provided a valuable angle of attack in many successful wars or sieges. Companies will explore alternatives when animal exploitation loses profitability. Animal-abusers will consider another line of work when they can't sleep without fear of reprisals from activists. The only barrier to effectively targeting our adversaries is our own lack of creativity.
The Work of an Activist Begins "Off the Clock"
It is absolutely imperative that one's homework is thorough and 100% correct before taking action. Don't simply rely on an Internet search or a telephone call to confirm your suspicions. Make absolutely sure that the face matches the name and the target is still "in the business." Make sure that the individual to be targeted currently resides at the location through your own physical confirmation. For example, make sure that John Doe still works at Company Filth and that Mr. Doe's address and/or phone number is current. DO NOT simply rely on a telephone call confirming that John Doe lives at 666 Mockingbird Lane. Confirm that your John Doe who lives at 666 Mockingbird Lane IS ALSO the very same John Doe who works at Company Filth.
There are many ways of locating and confirming the home addresses, gyms, churches, clubs, and associations of your target. But the responsibility of discovering and implementing those methods lies with the individual activist. If there is a will, the underground movement has certainly proven that there is a way to achieve our objectives. Be creative, think outside the box and don't give up at the first block wall in your search. The methods of locating and confirming the personal information of our adversaries are best kept in some degree of mystery, to be realized by the cells that will immediately use such information. To publish those methods here is to make them available to our adversaries and effectively compromise those techniques from ever being used by activists.
Sleep With One Eye Open
After confirmation, go all out in your efforts. After the first hit, the odds of a second successful second hit are often decreased. Assume that the first shot is the last shot, so make it count. John Doe will sleep many restless nights, waiting to catch you on a return visit; so don't play into his hands. Nervous anticipation and suspense are almost as effective as the action itself, so making him sweat is key to effectively striking at home. The physical invasion of privacy can be remedied through insurance and security, but the mental invasion and psychological sabotage are long-lasting and incredibly effective. While economic sabotage is key, psychological warfare is an invaluable tool to stopping animal exploitation. Hit hard and make'em sweat.
While listing the methods of destruction in a Communiqué is important for not only informing the public and educating other activists as to how they can carry on the actions in their own community, the opportunity for screwing with the abuser's mental state is at hand. One might want to consider mentioning the night activists looked on as John Doe and his wife watched television reruns on the sofa, unaware of the activists just outside their window. Activists might want to suggest that John Doe run his sprinklers at night rather than during the day or to inform him that motion detector lights are a waste of money. Use that previous reconnaissance time as another avenue of publicly invading the private sphere of the animal-abuser, but be mindful to omit details that would jeopardize your cell or your methods of operation that you plan to use in the future.
The more personal, the better. Let him think that nothing is off limits. And don't forget to make the address public in your Communiqué so others can feel free to pay him a future visit. People cherish their privacy, especially animal-abusing scum. Publishing his address takes away yet another sense of security. Make him feel exposed and vulnerable; keep him up waiting for the other shoe to drop and rub his face in it. Destroy his property, strip him of his security, and leave him unnerved and vulnerable, feeling like the worthless chump that he is.
Some basic but effective ways of hammering the message home are to:
- Glue the door locks
- Smash out the windows with rocks
- Repaint the house exterior by tossing on gallons of a most obnoxious color
- Tell his neighbors that an "Animal-Killer lives here" by spray-painting his garage door
- Pour bleach all over the front lawn
- Tear up the front lawn
- Padlock the garage door shut (Many garage doors have a latch on the sides of the door that are fitted for padlocks. Automatic garage doors aren't cheap to repair and if he can't get to work in the morning, he can't make money.)
- Pour paint thinner or a new coat of paint on the car
- Slash the car tires
- Pour corn syrup or sugar into the car's gas tank
- Cut the phone lines to the house (this is especially aggravating when he wakes up to a trashed house and can't even call the police to report it)
- Repaint the house interior... Fill glass bottles with paint (or paint thinner) and pitch them through the front windows (they'll shatter in the living room, creating a big mess)
- Take a sledgehammer and smash up the exterior stucco or wood siding
- Just flip the car over and smash it up
- Turn the hose on (preferably inside an open window)
- When John Doe is on vacation, and there are no animals at home, leave him a pile of ash to return to
- Steal his newspaper (the little things can be the salt in the wound)
Every home is different, so be creative and look to exploit any prospect. The possibilities are endless with some ingenuity.
Most importantly, make sure everything is clean of fingerprints and DNA. Leave nothing behind other than a big mess (or a clean padlock in a particular instance).
When Their Work Keeps Following Them Home
After the identity and home of the animal-abuser has more than adequately been verified and proper reconnaissance has been done, plan out your night's course of action to the smallest detail. Have an escape route and emergency rendezvous point planned. Check the surrounding houses to make sure that no neighbors are up and about. Make sure that your target is sound asleep and unsuspecting.
When combining different methods of mischief like gluing locks, spray painting, damaging automobiles, and smashing windows, start nearest the front door and with the quietest actions first. It's simply not a good idea to smash out a window and then go glue the front door locks or to tear up the lawn and then start spraying messages. Strike fast and hard; then get away fast.
It is imperative that the maximum amount of destruction is planned, as the first attack may make any subsequent attack unsafe. Don't assume you can just finish up an incomplete job at a later date, but don't discount one either. If you decide to return, and you should, approach from a different angle and vary your technique as well as the time and day of a subsequent visit. Let him sweat a little before returning, and just as he feels things are returning to normal, rattle his cage in a big away again. Or if he's replaced the front windows after your first visit, considering cruising by later that night and shooting them out with a slingshot and marbles. There will be no mistaking the message.
Be creative and seize any unique opportunity that presents itself in your suburban assault. Make every effort to not only destroy property, but to completely dismantle the animal-abuser's sense of security.
Take every liberty in completely screwing with his head and ensuring that, when leaving the strain of work, he retreats to a strained household. Try pitching his kid's tricycle through the front window to really get under his skin. He's a scumbag who profits from the death of sentient beings... all bets are off!
Targeting the home of an animal-abuser not only adversely affects the finances and psychological well-being of the abuser himself, but those with whom he resides. A hard day's work is bad enough, but when the castle has been ransacked and the marriage is stressed, a reassessment of priorities is inevitable.
Combining a variety of the tactics previously mentioned can easily inflict several thousand dollars worth of damage, create a lot of headache, and cause many sleepless nights. Every dollar of damage and every psychological assault brings the adversary one step closer to reconsidering his role in animal exploitation.
Bringing the fight to the doorsteps of the animal-abuser employs a strategy that combines economic and psychological values of sabotage that cannot be overstated. By staging the battlefield on our opposition's home turf, we gain an incredible advantage that animal-abusers have yet to combat. Making it personal efficiently destroys the security, morale, and finances of those who torture innocent lives. So get out there and don't just knock; beat down Death's door.
And remember: Maximum Destruction, NOT Minimum Damage.

A Moral Question
If it is morally right for "Animal Rights Activists" to attack and destroy property in the name of animal rights, the environment, global warming, etc..., is it morally right for someone to target and commit an act of violence or destruction against the same activist for whatever reason they view as justifiable?

A note was left saying "Bachem - this is only the beginning. All of the security, cameras and burglar alarms that you can buy will not save you now. Sever any and all ties to HLS. If not - things can only get worse. See you soon!"

These people are more on par with HAMAS, the PLO, and the Ku Klux Klan in the number of terrorist attacks they have committed. These people ARE "Terrorists" in every sense of the word.
