Report back on fur protest at J.Malnick of Oakland

by fur is murder (boycottjmalnick [at] hushmail.com)
We held another successful protest at J.Malnick Clothing in Oakland. The store sells both full length fur coats and fur trimmed items as part of their inventory

On Saturday, February 2, a number of animal rights/liberation activists demonstrated for about three hours outside of J.Malnick Clothing at 1901 Broadway ST. in Downtown Oakland. J.Malnick is Oakland's only major fur retailer, which sells both full length fur coats and fur-trimmed items as part of their inventory.

We turned many customers away (who vowed to never shop there again) much to the dismay of the overbearing employees. These customers had no idea that the owner Warren Malnick is a notorious slumlord and death profiteer. The activists were repeatedly harrassed and threatened by Mr. Malnick who taunted the activists as he entered his brand new Audi bought with the blood of the animals and humans that he has exploited. One employee (pictured) threatened to "slap the shit out of" us.

Call J.Malnick at 510-808-0308 and demand that they stop selling fur. Let's flood them with calls.
