More from the eco-socialistas and their sociopathic co-horts.
But first, a bit of news (that I should have posted last week) found via Volokh
The FBI and the Los Angeles Fire Department are investigating an anonymous claim that animal rights extremists placed an unexploded incendiary device found under the car of a prominent UCLA eye doctor last weekend. The incident was similar to one last year in which another UCLA researcher was the intended target.
A gasoline-filled device was discovered Sunday by the car outside the Westside home of Dr. Arthur Rosenbaum, who is chief of pediatric ophthalmology at UCLA’s Jules Stein Eye Institute. The device did not ignite despite evidence of an attempt to light it ….
An e-mail on Wednesday signed by the Animal Liberation Brigade said the group put the device there to stop experiments on animals in Rosenbaum’s laboratory….
According to the National Institutes of Health, [Rosenbaum’s] lab received federal funding to, among other things, test tiny implanted electrodes on monkeys to correct severe cross-eyed conditions.
Which corresponds nicely with this quote:
In a war you have to take up arms and people will get killed, and I can support that kind of action by petrol bombing and bombs under cars, and probably at a later stage, the shooting of vivisectors on their doorsteps. It’s a war, and there’s no other way you can stop vivisectors.

The BALF, friends of the Animal Rights Militia, also of the UK.
Taking a look at their chosen logo, how much would you like to bet that they have also disregarded the Brit firearms laws?
As a biomedical engineer, I’ve had to work with animals in the past. I genuinely love most animals, so at first the work was difficult, even though every animal we dealt with was treated with respect, kindness, and underwent a minimum of pain.
After my father contracted cancer, and I started visiting oncology wards with a higher frequency, I was constantly reminded of what the miracles of modern medical research have been able to accomplish. Intrinsic, of course, to this research is animal testing, since no novel drug or device can ever touch a human being unless undergoing such testing. This research gave me an extra two years with my dad. My research got a lot easier.
The monsters who left this crude and thankfully unfunctional gas bomb at a pediatric opthalmologist’s office deserve the same treatment we give all terrorists. If caught in the act, shoot them dead in the streets. Who bombs someone trying to bring sight to disabled little kids?
I agree that in general we should treat animals with respect; if you’re going hunting, eat the tasty thing you shoot. But, when hungry, or when the need strikes to kill an animal to serve humanity, one needs only to look into a mirror and smile. Those incisors should remind the mirror-looker of the providential hierarchy that was meant to be.
