Animal Rights Protest and Human Rights Neglect

[Postlehurst123]

You're rather off beam here. I support the right to take photos of buildings etc in a public place, but pointing a video camera in strangers' faces is simply aggressive and rude. You are demanding the right to be discourteous. Your problem is a lack of awareness of basic manners, not with human rights, animal rights, collectivism, or the current security panic industry.

You are dead right Topper, see the state smelly fuckers intimidating people.

fucking crusty!!! always protesting about something.... if multi national companies gave them free money they would probably protest about that... the peiple would be better off getting a job and working for a living instead of sponging off the state and living off my taxes!!!

WTF the animal rights thugs are more of a riot then you are.

Clearly the protesters were worried that you were filming for the authorities or the target company. They were simply asking you to stop filming not asserting any legal consequence if you didn't comply. Clearly you have a right to film and they have a right to disapprove of you filming. Your video makes no real point. Animal rights activists are not your enemy, we are fighting for a better world too.

As a matter of fact, they clearly stated "you can't do that" (film us). Why can't the camera man do that? Is he hurting anyone? They were ok with the situation when the security guard asked him to stop filming. Imagine the security guard had a gun or was a police officer. They wouldn't be very happy to have the gun pointed at them but would be fine with the gun being pointed at the camera man. A police officer who asserts their authority and gives you an order is pointing a gun at you.

[AranSPEAKS]

But they didn't say why you couldn't do that maybe they were referring to morally. The fact was he was not a cop and he didn't have a gun, the AR protesters would have ignored him if he had asked them to stop filming, the protesters really don't need to support you for you to do that as well. They are clearly not going to stand up for you when you just pissed them off.

What about the unborn? What about their rights?

[CollectivistEpicFail]

What about unicorns?

What do the unborn have to do with this video in any way?

[Guardianoftheunborn]

Apologies, I just find it odd and stupid when people advocate animal rights and forget about human rights.

[CollectivistEpicFail]

I agree with you and the point of the video was to highlight that contradiction. It just seemed like you were trying to hitch your own issues onto the video. Anyway, thanks for watching.

@Guardianoftheunborn There is no justification to jump to such a conclusion. People who campaign for Tibet aren't dismissing human rights abuses in X, they are just focussing on TIbet today, because that is the issue that has moved them and we can't all do everything. People who raise money for heart disease aren't being callous towards those suffering from cancer. You simply don't know why other people choose to campaign on a particular issue, and a little more assumption of good faith is nice.

Animal Rights Kooks are emotionally damaged cases of arrested development who mask their rage and hatred toward other people by parading their neurotic sensitivity to animals. Grow up or get some meds.
