A few more nutbags behind bars won't go astray!

[kromike]

A nice sense of poetic justice...they free animals by any violent means necessary and they end up in cages.

Sweet.

[kinoxi]

yeah, 'it's for the guinea pigs' you a*****e

[Clintonfatigued]

They act as if those who disagree with them hate animals. That is so wrong.

I love animals. They're delicious!

[Aussie Dasher]

Medium-to-welldone, please!

Ewww.

Me too!

"...a terror campaign against an English guinea pig farm that culminated in a grave robbing."

I know its serious, but I'm having a hard time not laughing at that sentence so here is a pic of Roast Cuy, an Andean delicacy.

[kinoxi]

that looks suspiciously like a rat... well done of course

[concerned about politics]

THREE animal rights activists were jailed for 12 years each and a fourth imprisoned for four years for a terror campaign against an English guinea pig farm that culminated in a grave robbing.

Excellent. Throw a few rats in their cells for company. They'll still see the rats as their "equals" when they're gnawing off their legs, right?

Cuy is the Quechua name for Guinea Pig. They eat them in parts of the Andes. Thats why they were domesticated in the first place.

...included a pedophile smear campaign, death threats, hate mail, malicious phone calls, hoax bombs and arson attacks against the owners, the pub in which they drank, their golf club and even their cleaners.

In October 2004, animal rights extremists stole the remains of the 82-year-old mother-in-law of one of the owners from a churchyard in the nearby village of Yoxall.

It would not bother me if these terrorists were each executed.

[kinoxi]

i understand that, they also keep them as pets. i was referring to the elongated skull in the pic, it looks like a rat

[elcid1970]

Bury them alive, and tell them they'll be dug up a few years hence and put on public display.

[conservativewasp]

If they had murdered the farmers they would have most likely received lighter sentences. (Not a suggestion, just an observation)

[xJones]

These animal rights, um, advocates are really entertaining. Even Pol Pot didn't dig up somebody's granny and hang on to the corpse because he hated guinea pig breeders.

If the Halls had began breeding gerbils they could have had the gays coming to their defense, and the PC crowd would have have been on the horns of a real dilemma.

You know, yank, I have written about this incident on FR posts in the past.

There's a lot of folks who think AR activists (terrorists is my preferred term, in most cases) are harmless -- Just a bunch of beautiful, compassionate people saving animals :)

If they ever have their demands met, ANIMALS (and the lesser, in their mind, species of evil humans would too) suffer greatly.

And if one of these SOBs comes here and digs my GRANNY up, I'll start shooting ;)

[AZ_Cowboy]

Ping.

[proud_yank]

I never heard of this story before. They have to be some of the most dimented individuals I have ever heard of. Right up there with some of history's worst dictators.

People seldom believe me when I tell them just how crazy these kooks are. Liberals simply don't want to believe it.
