Many argue that the fight against animal usage in science involves only the terrorist acts of extreme groups who seek to justify their means of the liberation of these animals. But ask the Animal Liberation Front (ALF) who is the REAL terrorist and they will tell you it is the scientists and sponsors of experimentation. So what is the philosophy of these animal liberators?
"The aim of the Institute for Critical Animal Studies (ICAS) is to provide a space for the development of a “critical” approach to animal studies, one which perceives that relations between human and nonhuman animals are now at a point of crisis which implicates the planet as a whole. This dire situation is evident most dramatically in the intensified slaughter and exploitation of animals (who die by the tens of billions each year in the United States alone); the unfolding of the sixth great extinction crisis in the history of the planet (the last one being 65 million years ago); and the monumental environmental ecological threats of global warming, rainforest destruction, desertification, air and water pollution, and resource scarcity, to which animal agriculture is a prime contributor."
Eco-Terrorism is very bad.

this is a really big problem. we need to do something to help these animals. we don;t want anymore animals to become extinct!
ReplyDeleteas far as animals going extinct, there seems to be this view that there was once some pristine balance that we've some how screwed up. We live on a planet in constant motion; the magnetic poles, the intensity of the sun, the earth beneath our feet, climates, and animal populations are constantly changing. There is no status quo. The vast majority of species that have gone extinct, have done so without out our help, and the planet is still here.
