Freedom fighters for the ones who cannot speak or defend themselves
Yes, I cringed with the raw footage in the beginning but the truth needs to be known.

The ALF has brought about more drastic change in "SCIENCE" (yeah, right, this is raw torture) labs. Because of research and these fucking scientists this half century has emptied the African jungles of the primates in the corrupt capture and trade of exotic animals to the tune of probably BILLIONS of innocent lives. In the name of science the general population has accepted and disregarded the complete decimation of species and looked the other way while innocent impounded and stolen companion animals were brutally tortured for the useless experiments designed only to achieve astronomical and nonsensical US grants with our tax dollars. Fuck these corporations and arrogant asshole scientists and their armies of brain washed wannabees.

ALF will be known in decades to come as the rightful patriots defending the other species. Ha! I love the sign "Experiment on yourself" RIGHT ON.

The clips are also right on with the factory farming.

The untold and silent WAR on the animals has been ingrained in the general population and is hushed big time with corporate blood money that obtain massive amounts of tax breaks and research (yeah, right) dollars for tests that succeed in proving absolutely nothing. It is all about the money and tax breaks.

THANK GOD FOR THESE HEROES. Only blatant and strong objections will force these torture chambers to close with so much damage and public debate and scrutiny to bring about the deviation of government grants and support in short order.

2. Could somebody please let me know where the horrible part ends?
Is it something I can skip past? I'm really not up to that today.

Then let it run.

4. That was a pretty well done video
It's actually safe from about a minute twenty in, I started it up a bit sooner and got a real lovely visual of somebody injecting something into a monkey's eye.

The beagles in the grass always make me cry.

5. It's funny
I'm reading this, and my youngest, a pit-beagle mix comes over and starts pawing me. Now, this is a dog I stole. Stole her as a baby. She was viewed multiple times hiding, starving, mistreated. When she was eating discarded pimento spread from a dumpster, she got snatched.

For that reason, the "beagles over the fence" makes my eyes well up.

God fucking bless the balaclava, and those that don it.

8. You know, I used to have thought that a pit/beagle was a fucked-up mix.
Then my cousin rescued an abused pit/beagle/dachshund. Now that's a weird looking dog. Very good with her kids though (1, 5 and 7).

10. Beagles?!!!!! Oh no. Now I know I can't watch.
Anything involving cruelty to beagles just destroys me. I can't see how anyone can be around these wonderful creatures and behave cruelly toward them. Even when the vegan beagle is at her most annoying, I can't help but hug her.

11. Nothing bad happens to the beagles, I promise.
It's safe from about a minute and a half in, then skip the last 30 seconds or so, if you just want to see all the good stuff and none of the cringe-worthy.

12. Thanks, LM. I took your advice, started at about 1:30
and watched the rest of the way through. I must admit, I was moved to tears watching the beagles playing the fields with the rescuers. I shudder to think what those beags had been through, and it was wonderful to see them playing--as God intended beagles to do!!

These rescuers are wonderful people. I admire them deeply, and am grateful they are fighting for the animals!!

9. Ditto. I watched him hit that bunny on the head, and had to stop
I know these things happen. I try to stop them, in my own (probably way too weak) way. I really don't want to watch them.
