Bill Protecting Researchers From Animal Rights Groups Passes

Californian Senate

California: AB 2296, a bill which makes it illegal to publish the

photographs or personal information of researchers or their families

with the intent to harm or intimidate has passed the state Senate 29-0

 

The legislation, which also covers residential trespass, comes in the

wake of a number of incidents including the firebombing of two

researchers' homes and demonstrators who targeted a researcher's home

while a child's birthday party was in progress.

 

" Increasingly, the potential for innovative thought and new medical

therapies is jeopardized by threats aimed at researchers and their

families… Violence or serious threats of violence are never the

answer, " said bill author Assemblyman Gene Mullin.

--------------------

Here's my question: Why should innovation come at the expense of

animals? It shouldn't--there are other ways of doing research!
