THE VEGAN MANIFESTO: Activists want a constitutional bill of animal rights by 2055

The VEGAN MANIFESTO wants the sale of animal meat banned in the US by 2035, legal personhood for all animals by 2045, a species equality bill by 2045, and a constitutional bill of animal rights by 2055.

STEWART PERRY: ‘The classic protest chant of ‘What Do We Want? When Do We Want It?’ has been laid bare in a new manifesto. Global Animal Liberation Group Direct Action Everywhere (DxE), who have staged protests in Australia, have a plan for how they’d like to see legislation brought in over the next 40 years to protect other species. The handbook, obtained by The West Australian, wants the sale of animal meat banned in the US by 2035, ‘legal personhood to all animals’ (which declares animals have the same rights as humans) is granted by 2045, a species equality bill to go to the Supreme Court by 2045 and a constitutional bill of animal rights established by 2055.

The manifesto also actively encourages activists to storm farms and ‘rescue’ animals… “While we believe that open rescue is a form of activism anyone can undertake, it is critical that people are trained correctly as open rescue can pose serious health and legal risks,” the handbook states. “We do not hide our identities because we are proud of what we are doing and know that we are taking morally just action,” the handbook states. “Being a public face to an investigation breaks down the stereotypes of animal activists as criminals, vandals and terrorists.” It also helps activists learn ‘the secret to dramatic photo editing’ to create a conversation on social media’.  SOURCE…
