6/1 report back - Berkeley primate vivisector Jack Gallant get another home demonstration
On Sunday June 1, activists demonstrated outside of the home of UC Berkeley vivisector Jack Gallant.
A dozen activists again demonstrated outside the home of UC Berkeley non-human primate torturer Jack Gallant, who inflicts hideous violence on macaque monkeys in his laboratory.
We are demanding an end to Gallant's vicious experiments, and an end to primate vivisection at UC Berkeley. We are calling on UC Berkeley to finally be responsive to the residents of Berkeley and the student population. The Berkeley city council, as well as the ASUC, have both passed resolutions condemning primate vivisection, and calling for a decrease in the number of animals exploited at the university. The university continues to experiment on primates, and is currently constructing the Li Ka-Shing Center for Biomedical and Health Sciences, which will lead to a seventy percent expansion of UCB's Northwest Animal Facility
Gallant wasn't home, but we marched through his neighborhood flyering neighbors with a banner reading "Jack Gallant kills primates" and left the street and sidewalk in front of his house covered in chalked slogans.
Gallant , you can stop experimenting on animals at any time. All your neighbors think you're sick. Your experiments conducted for years have not saved a single human life, they've only kept the grant money rolling. Quit torturing animals and the public campaign against you ends. Otherwise activists will be back again and again.

Thanks so much for being out there, but why call for an end only to primate vivisection? It makes people think that it's okay to exploit and experiment on other animals--whereas it's just as cruel, violent, and useless to experiment on rats and cats as it is to do so on primates.
thanks for the support.

In the "meet the vivisectors" section, you'll see we also detail UC Berkeley's exploitation and torture of cats, rabbits, hyenas, rats, squirrels, mice, etc. There are 40,000 non-human animals being exploited and the university is currently constructing a facility that would increase this number by nearly seventy percent.
