JAMES WARDEN: On the screens we'll be playing the Dominion documentary that highlights the inherent cruelty of the industry. Animals don't want better lives they want freedom.
BRITTANY CHAIN: ‘Around 22 animal rights activists from the group Direct Action Everywhere took to the streets of Leederville, a suburb of Perth, Australia… and confronted diners with disturbing animal cruelty footage and placards… While some of the group stood silently with signs about animal slaughter other activists began preaching at groups of people enjoying dinner. ‘Male calves are slaughtered as young as six weeks old simply because they don’t produce milk,’ one female activist said. ‘Chicks are blended alive in a macerator or gassed to death simply because they don’t produce eggs’. ‘Animals don’t want better lives they want freedom. We have a choice the animals don’t,’ she concluded.
The group, who were also armed with televisions, were led by James Warden, who said the group planned to use the televisions to screen the film Dominion. ‘On the screens we’ll be playing the Dominion documentary that highlights the inherent cruelty of the industry, speciesism. So that’s all we’re trying to project,’ Mr Warden told 9News. Dominion is a documentary film which examines the exploitation of animals and mainly focuses on how humans use animals for food. Premier of Western Australia Mark McGowan said by holding such public protests, the activists were actually driving people away from their cause’. SOURCE…
