I like the more militant wing of the anti-vivisectionists
Especially when they put up their stalls on main streets with all the grisley photographs of animals having vivisection at eye-level for five year old kids.

Yeah!

Right on!

It doesn't help, does it?
Some charity was collecting money outside Boots in Kew retail park a couple of Saturays ago. They had a bloody great big poster of some poor little 5 year old swathed in bandages, but with blood and some kind of weeping sores all over her. Something like that anyway. The effect was pretty gruesome, and you could see all the parents with their little ones (self included) hurrying them past trying not to let them see it.

I'm not averse to popping the odd quid in a bucket, but that just seemed totally counter productive. If I wasn't so feckless I'd have told her to stop being such an idiot.

To be fair
Anti-vivisectionists are a bunch of completely loony right-wing nutters that need to be shot.

As evinced by that lot sent down the other day.

true
they quite often park outside my local Barclays branch, and shout at the filthy puppy burners working at counters with megaphones. Barclays take the extraordinary measure of closing the door.

All absolutely hatstand.

"Animals having vivisection"
You make it sound like a spa treatment. :-)

They get free shampoo, free make up, free deodorant ...
They even get free fags.

I don't see how it's radically different.

Animal rights protesters
dunno if it is already posted as an answer to the QOTW, but this sums it up to me:

Yes it's all quite unpleasant...
... my preferred response to this is to covertly insert a hound into the dwelling of the anti-vivisectionist, repeatedly, on a monthly basis. Usually around 3-4am.

Worse yet...
... the anti-abortion protesters. I've seen things on their stalls that I found even more disgusting and dehumanising than the things on the anti-vivisection stalls.

I mean, we eat animals. We don't eat foetuses. Except the Chinese.

[ EDIT - I mean the Chinese are alleged to eat human foetuses; not that we only eat Chinese foetuses. ]

As I say, more frequently than I wish I felt I had to, man's inhumanity to man is exceeded only by his inhumanity to other animals. Though sometimes I'm not so sure.

Grisley?
That's in Yorkshire, isn't it?

I might be inclined to show some support
If they ever had any pics made past 1980 up.

And you know what, they're only animals, cruelty is one thing but bumping off a few million mice to get a cure for cancer or working cybernetic limbs is fine by me.

I've always wanted the stones to ask if they'll put themselves forward for experimentation to spare the mice.
