It appears that your videos are more about Police and how you feel they are harrassing you rather than animal rights. Perhaps your desire to protest has more to do with your dislike of authority than it has to do with the rights of animals? The Police are doing a job that is valuable, like it or not. Perhaps you should concentrate on what your message should be about.
@redstix82 If you look through our videos most of them are of us protesting not the police. Where there are videos of the police it is because there was no need to film anything else on the demo – most probably activist were to busy to film. Police, however, are always filmed for legal reasons – so once the footage is obtained we may as well post it. You will see more about our cause on the Animal Rights Cambridge website.
Testing products in one species cannot predict outcome in another species. The Safer Medicines Campaign opposes animal testing on human health grounds.
"Would you mind if we got our video out and filmed you?" My goodness?!? Did the police officer really say that to you or did you dub that in afterwards?
If that policeman had approached me that way I would not only have given him my name, I would have smiled and posed for his video :)
TY for posting and for your work against the HLS (may they burn in hell)
Ha ha yep it is very British. But the reason he asked is he wanted us to say 'yes we would mind' and then he could say 'well why are you filming us then?'. There is a lot of resistance to police filming in the UK protest scene via a blog/movement called FITwatch, so there is a bit of a battle between police and activist cameras. If he had wanted to film us he would have, but he didn't he was trying to make a point :-)
Thanks for commenting. Happy Xmas and New Year to you as well!
What's your view on animal testing if the end result is, or could be, beneficial to animals. Say they used animal testing to find a cure for cancer which could be applied to animals as well as people?
I don't know where your problem with animal testing comes from, the fact they can't give consent, the pain they suffer or the fact its used mostly to enhance cosmetics, or all three?
My ethical objection starts with the fact the animal cannot give consent and as with a young child or mentally disabled human it is 'moral agents' (i.e. our) responsibility to protect there interests. Making a individual suffer extreme pain/distress cannot be in these animals interests. Ethically I would not have a problem with a test that was to the benefit of the individual animal involved.
My practical objection is that animal testing has never been validated as a way of testing drugs for humans. The evidence shows that data cannot be accurately applied across the species barrier. Animal testing is an insurance policy for drug companies for when humans suffer adverse drug reactions, one of the biggest causes of death around.
Cops seem to be more polite in England than here in the US, Of corse the camera was on them so they may have acted differently. In the US the cop probably would have yelled at you atleast. LOL
HAHAHA! That police officer wanted to laugh so hard in your face!
Why did you even upload this? Its embarrassing!!!
