After decades of pushing the climate alarmist narrative that arctic ice is melting fast, scientists have now claimed that the near 20-year stable Arctic sea ice is "unsurprising" and predicted by their models.

ALF Ireland Communique

category national | animal rights | press release author Saturday March 22, 2008 20:31author by Laura Broxson - National Animal Rights Association / CAFT Irelandauthor email naracampaigns at gmail dot comauthor address PO Box 11019, Dublin 2 Report this post to the editors

-----------------------------PRESS RELEASE----------------------------------

N.A.R.A. receives communique from ALF on Fur Farm Raid

Contact Spokesperson/Press Officer: Laura Broxson, 086 8729 444

The National Animal Rights Association has today received the official communique regarding the recent raid on Vasa Ltd. Fur Farm in Co. Laois (see below for the report). We were also told that there will be photos sent to us - which we will release as soon as we receive them.

"This is a great victory for animal rights in Ireland" Says spokesperson for N.A.R.A., Laura Broxson

"As a result of the action, 300 mink now actually have the chance to live out the rest of their lives - they're finally free.

The fur farming industry is Ireland's secret shame, we find it absolutely disgusting that there are such ''farms'' in this country.

The liberation that occurred has come at a great time too - the Government is currently drafting an Animal Welfare Bill, which could finally put an end to fur farming here, so what happened will certainly highlight the issue.

Our group doesn't encourage people to break the law or engage in any illegal activity whatsoever, but we fully support the ALF and those who are brave enough to risk their lives, and freedom, to help animals." she said.

"Animals are no different from people - they are living, breathing, sentient beings who deserve the right to life and freedom as much as we do. And I think a lot of the Irish public are finally starting to see this. There are a lot of compassionate people in this country, so we are not surprised at all by the action that took place" she added.

THE COMMUNIQUE:

---------- Forwarded message ----------

Last weekend, the Irish Animal Liberation Front visited Ireland's largest fur farm - Vasa Ltd, in Co. Laois.

The ALF made their way through the locked gate in a matter of seconds, and then the real fun started...

A quick scan of the area showed that the sheds were enclosed in an area secured by corrugated steel. No problem - a huge hole was then cut into this, the wire mesh behind it snipped, and the hedgerow behind that was then cleared - to allow the Mink easy access to the river running beside this concentration camp.

Graffiti was sprayed all around the place, including the signature ''ALF'' calling card.

300 breeding cards were removed from one of the sheds, and then destroyed.

Moving onto the next shed, 300 Mink were liberated and were then guided to freedom, before the ALF disappeared into the darkness. It was unbearable to have to leave the others behind.

Una and Michael Heffernan are responsible for murdering over 45,000 Mink on this death camp every year. It's time to make them pay for this.

The ALF will be back, Una and Michael - and don't think that the cows and horses you keep locked up too were unnoticed.

Until all are free,
ALF Ireland

I presume the first post re Guns, was that they could be used too defend the Halligans property and lives against the ALF from attacking them.

You are of course right. I meant wolverines of course. How did I get them mixed up? Err, they look a bit alike!

Anyway, lets release wolverines in Laois!

I suggest u brush up on your systematics m8!! , Polar Bears are as closely related to minks as we are to Tree Shrews.

I dont think you need a gun to defend yourself from a mink. However, Polar Bears are related to minks and basically are giant minks. If there are Polar Bears rampaging through Laois then it might be best to avoid the area.

Hmmm, how about releasing Polar Bears from Dublin Zoo and letting them loose in Laois?

a gun???? to defend themselves against the roaming mink intent on revenge?????

author by Me - No organisationpublication date Mon Nov 03, 2008 00:54author address author phone Report this post to the editors

Mink are wiping out birds throughout Ireland. The release of several hundred will devastate bird populations in that area for years to come. I would advise that couple to get a gun, so they can defend themselves.
