I think there is propaganda on both sides of the issue (like pretty much everything else) That doesn't mean that I don't support animal rights issues. If you see something that you think is too heinous to be true, do a little research, you might find out it's not true, or that it is.... I think atrocious things are done to animals

The ALF reported that Britches was later transferred to a sanctuary in Mexico. University officials reported that hundreds of thousands of dollars of damage was done by the theft, and by smashing laboratory equipment, and years of medical research were lost. Sonar is sound ranging like bats and dolphins use for echolocation.
