On the evening of Feb 4, protestors continued the offensive of home protests. With torture and exploitation as the common theme, we first visited the home of a GSK exec (a SHAC action),
then moved on to the home of Paul Wolfowiz's girlfriend, where he is rumored to sleep.
About 200 people ma4rched away from the National Conference on Organized Resistance to stage a noisy protest outside the home of GSK executive Elizebeth Crighton. There were so many people that the pots and pans were too spread out to hear over the mass of shouting protestors!
We not only protested Glaxo's support for animal torture in the labs of Huntingdon "death" sciences, but also their callous disregard for the fate of people with AIDS in Africa, and the numerous human deaths caused by their drug Paxil, which has led to 17 settlements agaisnt GSK in court.
In addition to the protest we also engaged in neigobr education, explaining ot one man(about why peopoe were masked) about how under the Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act(AETA), a peaceful candlelight vigil that causes a company to panic and spend over $10,000 on security is now considered terrorism. Rather than being deterred, people simply wore masks and we hit HLS related targets anyway.
After we got done at Elizabeth's house, we marched on to the Embassy park home of Paul Wolfowitz's girlfriend. Althouh Wolfie wasn't there,a hell of a lot of his neighbors were!
Here we had about 100 people and the pots, pans, and cowbells were more prominant in the smaller crowd. In both cases we did not have the time or resources to equip the huge number of protestors with noisemakers.
Also, coverage of last week's Army recruiting protest at Blair HS, and our latest new Orleans update based on information presented at an NCOR workshop.
If YOU are a Servant of Mammon, a sponso of torture, know this: We will find you and you are next! The arm of justice is long and you will have nowhere to run and no place to hide.
