"During the past several years, special interest extremism, as characterized by the Animal Liberation Front (ALF) and the Earth Liberation Front (ELF), has emerged as a serious terrorist threat. Generally, extremist groups engage in much activity that is protected by constitutional guarantees of free speech and assembly. Law enforcement becomes involved when the volatile talk of these groups transgresses into unlawful action. The FBI estimates that the ALF/ELF have committed more than 600 criminal acts in the United States since 1996, resulting in damages in excess of 43 million dollars."That's a lot of criminal activity and a lot of damages. Mr. Jarboe continues on, saying,
"These groups occupy the extreme fringes of animal rights, pro-life, environmental, anti-nuclear, and other movements. Some special interest extremists -- most notably within the animal rights and environmental movements -- have turned increasingly toward vandalism and terrorist activity in attempts to further their causes."As bad as these "activists" are in the United States, they are worse in Europe and in the United Kingdom. They are heavily involved in trying to ban all hunting activities, all animal research, all farming.... everything and anything to do with animals. Yesterday, 24 March, the Daily Mail published an article indicating the possibility that a hound was beaten to death by ALF members, who then dumped the poor animal next to a car, which had been vandalized, on the driveway of the Ross Harriers huntmaster, Lee Peters. This was NOT a hunting dog, but a pet. The reason the police suspect ALF is because the letters ALF were scratched into the vehicles where the dog was found dead on the drive.
It is thought that this act is connected with the fact that a badger cull is to happen in the same area as where the Ross Harriers Hunt are located. Threats by the AR's have been made against those who support the cull.
Now then, what does this have to do with Grey2K? Well, Christine Dorchak of Grey2K was a keynote speaker at an ALF conference.
That should say it all....
Yours in greyhounds, not terrorism....
This is complete nonsense. GREY2K USA has absolutely no relationship with this organization, and greyhound breeders know that this accusation is false.
ReplyDeleteIn fact, we addressed this false claim nearly a year ago:

This lie is particularly sinister because it addresses such a serious issue. When political opponents use the terrorism label like a cheap trick it demeans all of us. It is Un-American.

Bahahaha, a liar complaining about dishonesty
DeleteYou are a liar Carey, but of course that is becoming well known here in Florida, right there is the proof. As the court proof concerning lying Dorchaks " accident", blackmail in WVA too
DeleteIs this meant to be a joke? Or are you seriously suggesting that grey2k has ties to the ALF? If the former I would suggest that you haven't takenn your comedic article to it's logical conclusion, so let me help.
ReplyDeleteGrey2k is an animal welfare organization, so presumably they love animals. Great, who else loved animals? Why, Adolf Hitler, who famously posed for photographs and slept with his beloved dog Blondi. Now, it seems quite clear to me that grey2k is nothing more than a front for a resurgent Nazi party. Indeed, I would go so far as to suggest that they are lead by Mr. Hitler's disembodied brain which communicates to them through telepathy.
