Five battery hens rescued in daylight protest

This is great but how will it stop the factory farmers from continuing their nasty ways? They probably don't even know you were there. Was a press release posted to the mainstream media? I don't want to rain on your parade but it seems so futile to me.

awesome stuff
:)

choice stuff!!!

keep the liberations flowing!!!!!!!

WARN rock!

Battery farms are cruel and sick! Whoever buys eggs from these places are also cruel and sick!! Buy free range eggs or even better go vegan!!!

looks like direct action is the only way to go. the vegan lifestyle help too.

I noticed all the anti-SAFE comments have been censored while -not Alan's comment which is clearly abusive has been left.This seems a little DODGY.Also I think it is far healthy to have both positive and negative comments kept in order for a more enlightened debate.

It is one thing to acknowledge the work SAFE does in relation to raising awareness to the injustices inflicted on animals ,but to sing it's praises is to blind oneself to the fact that it is clearing a hierarchy which obviously marginlises and exploits it workers.Further more the liberation of animals will only come about with the liberation of the worker from wage slavery imposed by capitalism.Any system based on hierarchy creates injustice,greed,power,inequality,marginalising of people,abuse and exploitation of the earth etc etc.

Any organisation that operates with Capitalist heirarchical structures does nothing but perpetuate this BULLSHIT Capitalist system.

We must operate in a non-heirarchical,anti-authoritarian way otherwise there will be no LIBERATION of anyone , people or animal.

Clearly VEGAN, Not Alan and Mr G are brainwashed morons from Safe as they can not accept that it has lost the plot. Perhaps they are the management of Safe trying to cover their bottoms.

Safe is not about animal rights anymore but only to keep it's elite in power by paying more money to them that what is being spent to help our animal buddies. The last accounting statements in 2003 at www.companies.govt.nz plainly show that. Why do not people read them? It is in the public domain. So there is no hidding the facts.

I like to point out at this time that me and many others that work for Safe feel the same way and are not willing to say so at work because we are been downtrodden my the junta of hate that management produce in the shop and in the national office.

That is why a number of us have choosen to use this forum, which is suppose to be liberal, to blow Safe's true nature wide open and have provided objective proof at an independant source, that Safe produced.

(Also most of us have choosen to use a public library to do so because it is free and it is open to the public. That way we can keep our id's secert and not be picked on by the unreasonable bullies that make up the management of Safe.)

However, it looks like the editors here are hypocritics like the management at Safe and have let the power of the job go to their heads. They don't even live up to indymedia's own policies. (What we have done is not spam and it would be adult of the editors to put back most of the anti-Safe comments.)

This is why me and others now think that indymedia is just another brick in the wall to block out the truth. There is nothing enlighten or noble in oppressing it.

As an old saying goes: "The truth will always come out in the end".

Looks like the editors are being the Thought Police by only keeping one side of the pros and cons of Safe argument showing.

Has indymedia become another police state where newspeak and doublethink are common?

Maybe indymedia's policies should read:

Slavery is Freedom,
War is Peace,
Ignorance is Strength.

Wonder where I have seen all of this before? Not in a book titled "1984" was it?

Boy oh boy what is going on here INDY CREW???? Why are you removing so many comments when clearly they are not *abusive*. This is censorship and we would like some answers from the editing people please!!

The deleted comments are by an animal rights spammer - they are all the same person. AIMC has gone through the "Process for banning an author" in the editorial policy, to no avail, and so now deletes their posts.

Mr G is trying to mislead people again. We have put it out there and have provided proof from an credible source at www.companies.govt.nz that Safe produced themselves. As for putting names here we like Mr G use a false one for safety reasons since the national front do troll here. Here we agree with Mr G aka Mr Grumpy that this is a very wise thing to do.

As Safe staff we are disempowered and marginalised. As such according to the indymedia's own policies that is what this forum is for. This is why it was choosen to blow the whistle here that more money is being paid as wages instead of being used to help our animal friends i.e. it is a con We have kept is as objective as possible. If others that have supported us have gone too far we can not help that as the feeling against Safe can be very strong.

However, we also agree with Mr G that if people are unhappy with Safe do support another group as most of them are worthwhile in helping our animal buddies like the AAA, CAFF and HARD to name a few. Very good point Mr G.

I with these peopel would stop moaning.
If you really are disgruntled SAFE staff, why has no one in the AR movement heard of you?
a lot of people working in the groups that you claim support you, are ex SAFe staff (some of them even disgruntled) but they have never heard fo you either. real ex safe staff go on to do AR stuff with other groups and dont just slag off safe in public forums anonymously like you do.

If you can write a coherent, referenced article on what exactly it is about safe that you dislike, and post it on a relevent forum (eg one of the many animal rights forums or lists) instead of adding comments after every animal rights story you can find on Indymedia, then Im sure we would all be happy to debate it and you might even convince me.

But if you are not an animaL rights activist and just a random moaner who has a bee in his bonnet about SAFE, i suspect you will just carry on making random abusive comments here instead

and if you want to reach me at a real email address its grumpyanarchist at hotmail dot com
over to you now . . .

lol, yeah right Alan. Look just give it up okay, why are you actually so annoyed at SAFE? Havn't you got someone better to harass? Isn't all that time you spend in the library costing alot?

Oh yeah, I fuckin think its our right to say fuck, for fucks sake. Just because some toffee nosed whiteys don't like it is no reason to censor..

bawk bok bok bok bawk bawk bawk bok bok bok booo gawwk baaaa gawkkk...... bok bok bok.

thats awsum, well done, every little thing helps, its such a big thing to try and fight but well done on making such a big difference for those rescued
