World Laboratory Animal Liberation Week Protests In New York City

"WAR Wraps Up World Week at CEO Andrew Baker & Top Executives of Bristol-Myers Squibb and Novartis.

In Solidarity with Prisoners of Conscience Fighting Vivisection.

Demo #1: Andrew Baker - Chairman & CEO – Huntingdon Life Sciences

Win Animal Rights hit the streets once again to stick it to the puppy killing scumbags residing in New York City. Activists decided to organize the first demonstration of the day against the most notorious animal abuser in the United States (and England!), Andrew Baker.

Huntingdon Life Sciences has become the battleground over the future of animal research (read: torture), making it all the more fitting to protest during the World Week for Animals in Laboratories. Approximately twenty activists stood outside at Central Park West, naming and shaming Baker to the numerous pedestrians that passed by. "Punching beagles in the face! Andrew Baker, what a disgrace!"

Accompanying the activists was a videographer, who is doing a project about people's relationships with animals. Well it appears that people hate animal abusers! Nearly every passerby took a flier and activists received many kind words of support. One pedestrian was so disgusted by the images that he decided to grab a sign and join the protest. Welcome aboard and thanks for the help!

Demo #2: Lamberto Andreotti – President & CEO - Bristol-Myers Squibb

Following Baker, the protesters took a stroll downtown to say hello to Lamberto Andreotti, President of Bristol-Myers Squibb. Since Andreotti received his promotion, home demonstrations have increased outside his luxury apartment complex; they will continue as long as he continues to support a company that has been caught in seven undercover investigations committing horrific acts of animal cruelty.

Protesters took advantage of the warm weather by informing the hundreds of pedestrians and drivers how their neighbor gets his jollies. During the demonstration, a horse carriage driver tried to harass the protesters. While he excelled in douchebaggery he certainly didn't win over any friends. The incident provided a golden opportunity to educate more New Yorkers about animal cruelty masquerading as entertainment.

Demo #3: Dorothy Watson – General Counsel - Novartis

Activists concluded their day of action outside the home of Dorothy Watson, VP and General Counsel for Novartis. There had not been demonstrations outside her Broadway residence for some weeks, so Sunday was as good a time as any. As with the earlier protests, countless people took fliers, eager to learn what the soulless monsters were during in their neighborhood.

Each demonstration was very well received by the populace, as "thanks for being here" seemed to be the comment of the day. Then again, it's not that difficult to be horrified at such scenes of animal abuse, not to mention really crappy laboratory practices. As LSR stock continues to decline yet again, it makes one wonder how long the sadistic animal killers have left before they are closed for good.

If you are worried about 'puppy-killing scumbags', shouldn't you start by portesting outside PETA headquarters?

And btw, I love the scenario you portray in which a horse-drawn carriage driver "harassed" the protesters....I am SURE that couldn't have been the other way around, no way, right!! LOLOL
