COLIN BETTLES: ‘More than 30 animal rights activists are set to face trespass charges in court… following a mass raid and pro-vegan protest at a Queensland piggery. But rather than defending complaints for breaching the property’s strict biosecurity protocols and endangering animal welfare standards, the protesters have instead subject the farm owner to government investigation and regulatory scrutiny.
About 110 activists wearing black t-shirts saying ‘One has a moral obligation to disobey unjust laws’ targeted Gary McGuire’s property on the Queensland Sunshine Coast, Glasshouse Country Farms, in an early morning raid on April 6. Of the 68 activists who staged a sit-in at the farrowing shed a spokesperson from the Beerwah Police Station said more than 30 were arrested on the day and are now due to appear in the Caloundra Magistrates Court… to face trespass charges…
Video footage of the protest posted on social media showed police warning the activists inside the farrowing shed about the potential consequences of their actions… “We’re here to disobey the law that is inflicting this upon these victims,” a female activist is heard shouting… The activist said the t-shirts the protesters wore – which said ‘One has a moral obligation to disobey unjust laws’ – were assigned to the protesters at a dinner held the night before so they could “disobey the law”.’ SOURCE…
