LATEST FRENCH SLAUGHTERHOUSE BLOCKADE – AN ACCOUNT FROM AN ACTIVIST. 

We requested and received an account of the happenings during the last 269 Libération Animale blockade in France. Read the words because they transmit not only how violent the cops can be but also how the estate repression keeps creeping up and the urgency of more activists joining to make a change.

Enjoy the ride and if you for some strange reason haven’t liked their page yet, go support them now!

“The action lasted 14 hours, the slaughterhouse is the 5th biggest in France, hundreds of cows are killed there daily. The slaughterhouse was already targeted by the association in the past, 9 activists chained themselves to the gate and blocked the trucks for 4 hours. 2 Nuits Debout were organized as well and we returned there because it belongs to an important carnist lobby ”Sicarev”.

We occupied the rooftop of another of their slaughterhouses 29-30/10 for 26 Hours. The president of Sicarev came on Monday and tried to convince the police to be harsh with us and said we should all get a prison sentence, as if he substituted himself to a judge. The police tried to steal the phone filming the evacuation and an activist was able to hide it in its pocket to film. They were really violent.

After the evacuation of the activists chained inside the death row, they evacuated us on the rooftop. Some of us (15 approximately) were put in jail for a couple of hours.

Tiphaine and Ceylan, the founders of the association, who were just supporting the action on the streets, and who were not participating, were chased by police officers and locked up for more than 24 hours!

This is just another sign they are trying to put huge psychological pressure on the whole disobedience movement.

This is the first time in France that a slaughterhouse is completely unable to kill for a whole day and it shows how effective we could be if we grew our numbers.

People should stop saying they defend animals and put themselves as heroes, we are just here to be allies and now our resistance against speciesist industries must go into slaughterhouses. We must resist with them, not just for them. This is why we put ourselves between the knives and the victims.”

HUNTERS’ CARS VANDALISED, TYRES SLASHED, HUNT SUPPORTING BUSINESS TARGETED. 

21st January, Spain
anonymous report:
“Spain seems to have no shame. Yesterday I heard of an organised hunt that was being publicised openly in a town over the public megaphones. The lack of organised hunt saboteurs brought me to the realisation that the hunt needed to be stopped differently.

I arrived at their meet and waited for all cars to be parked and emptied, leaving only the dogs inside whilst the hunters drunk coffee and alcohol in the bar. I approached the building to glue the locks with some hair clips and superglue. The owner won’t be too happy when they try to close the place up! Maybe that makes them think about hosting hunters at their place again.

I then deflated the tyres of three cars. The other two had protection so they had the luck to be slashed instead! After I was sure that cars would not be moving anywhere in the morning, some of the car windows were destroyed with a rock. Wondering about the noise and the dogs barking some of the hunters came out, so I had to flee leaving the job half done.

Next time, they won’t have a single window standing.

Stop the hunt. Stop the killing.

Sabotage”

 

WILD BOAR HUNT SABOTAGED

21st January, Castellón

Activists from Castellón Animal Save and OVIA Castellón decided to sabotage an announced wild boar hunt in the neighbouring town of Borriol.

“We arrived at 6am and invaded all public footpaths where the hunt was supposed to take place. Armed with pots and pans we started a concert alerting the animals to the risks of hunters in the area and letting the hunters know we weren’t going anywhere. Cops were nowhere to be seen and the hunters only came out once to check us out. No shots were heard but we saw a whole herd of wild boar!

On our way back to the cars, filled with a feeling of victory, we saw a hunter coming out of the woods, looking at us as if to let us know that he hadn’t enjoyed the concert. Great sab without any major incidents!”

LONG RUN THE WILD!!!!!!!

TWO NATIVE WOMEN ARRESTED AFTER BLOCKADING THE “DEPARTMENT OF FISHERIES AND OCEANS”.

Tsastilqualus Ambers Umbas and Shawna Green were arrested on the 18th of January after refusing to leave the DFO, situated on an increased indigenous territory.

The action was done in solidarity with the many indigenous people fighting the salmon farming in their land, that not only creates a culture of cruelty but also represents a ticking biological bomb for the ecosystem around it and a huge danger for the wild Pacific salmon which is legally supposed to be protected.

SOLIDARITY WITH OUR INDIGENOUS COMRADES AND IN DEFENCE OF THE EARTH AND THE ANIMALS!

LIBERATION.

USA CONSULATE TARGETED WITH PAINT GRENADES AND NOISE BOMBS. 

18th January, Spain.

anonymous report:

“Under the ‘CALL FOR WORLDWIDE SOLIDARITY WITH THE J20 DEFENDANTS’, an autonomous group of anarchists decided to take action against the so-called ‘United States of America’ consulate.

We set off in the early morning with bags full of Christmas balls filled up with paint. On arrival, we redecorated the consulate with black, red and green all over the building.

Taking advantage of the many banks around the consulate, we allowed three noise bombs to explode causing the alarms to go off and aiding our voices of rage and solidarity to be heard even further in the middle of the night.

This murdering system is rotten and we stand in solidarity with our compañeros against Trump and the democratic system we are forced to live in.

This is just the beginning, our anger can only increase, our fight against the state and the system will prevail until all political class and upper class drown in it.

Drop the charges against our comrades at J20.

Be warned.

some anarchists.”

WORLD DAY FOR ANIMALS IN LABORATORIES

WDAIL has been organised and locations and dates released. This historic demo against vivisection in the UK will take place on the 28th of April in Nottingham.

Make sure to book some time off and come support all the animals tortured in laboratories. The anti-vivisection movement in the UK has been quieted down by the state and by applying incredibly repressive laws against protesters. It is time to change that back again.

Find more info here: https://www.facebook.com/events/817860415062877/

Unoffensive Animal will be attending so find us there and come say hello!
