I am an attorney that helps CAFT and was at this protest. I was arrested for no reason by the police there. I was choked to the point of passing out: if this was done wrong I would have died. Afterward, a police officer- K. Dempsey- threatened to kill me about five times. I am terrified still that they might kill me and am trying to get the word out. After all, if they are not afraid to kill attorneys at protests, then what will they do with protestors? En Solidaidad- Alex Penley

I believe that anti-fur protests are mandatory in order to educate the public about the truth behind the fur trade and fur industry.
