Directions to Citibank of Huntington- At Long Island University - CW-POST ADL-LI & CW-Post P.E.A.C.E. Present BAN THIS LECTURE! What the government does not want you to know. w/ Kevin Kjonas & Josh Harper (of the SHAC-7) Join Kevin Kjonas and Josh Harper as they take us on a tumultuous political journey of activism and federal indictments. Kevin and Josh are co-defendants in what is being called the "landmark" "SHAC-7" trial. Both are being charged as terrorists for a dissenting view that lab animals are worthy of rights. A conviction in this trial has been chalked up to being less of a victory for those opposed to animal rights and more of a blow to free speech. Help promote this event by downloading this Flyer! (Link to PDF) The lecture will run from 8pm-10pm in the Adult Study Lounge located on the 2nd floor CW-Post's Hillwood commons. CW-Post is centrally located on Northern Blvd. in Brookville - Long Island. (Click the link below for mapquest directions) Directions to CW-POST --------------------------------------------- C.W.

With a strong focus on abolishing the animal abuse inside Huntingdon Life Sciences the Animal Defense League will be planning throughout the 2nd half of April aimed at educating the public about abuse inside animal labs, the threats animal research poses to human life, and how a diversity of tactics has been a winning method in the campaign to see HLS close.

Talking isn'tnecessary if you wish to remain anonymous, and beeping noises can be fun if you get bored with silence. Every call you make to these toll-free numbers costs them money, and the more time you spend on the phone is less time Forest spends with their customers. Let's give 'em hell.

Clearly Forest is suffering financially for it's dealings with HLS and the groundswell of disgust following 5 undercover investigations depicting criminal cruelty to animals and violations of good laboratory practice. With the recent failings of Forest Alzheimer's drugs and “Suicidality [sic]” attributed to the use of their anti-depressants Lexapro and Celexa, Forests' stock is worth 1/2 of what it was this time last year.
