Institution Targeted: UCLA Primate Vivisection

On Monday April 25th observing laboratory animal liberation week we joined forces with another cell and sent UCLA monkey experimenters Joaquin Fuster at [deleted] Pesquera Dr. in Los Angeles and Edythe London living at [deleted] Edgeley Place in Los Angeles two letters including a dangerous present contained inside the envelopes. The first letter in part reads “Joaquin after decades of causing sensory deprivation, water deprivation, implanting bolts into the skulls of monkeys grafting devices in to the eyes of primates then ending their lives for your own selfish greed this should be a warning that we are watching you and we know about your wife. Unless you stop your evil torture upon monkeys we will not stop searching for ways to stop you for good.” The letter sent to Edythe London stated in part “We have been following you for the past six months all over campus to your car your visits to Ralphs to movies and social gatherings. you stop shooting up primates with street drugs or doing anything to harm them you perverted scum.”
We send this warning and promise with the understanding that few people could endure for even two minutes monkeys struggling in restraing device and being shot up with illegal street drugs. If ethical people were to see the torture grip of these devices there would be no sight more anguished. Hearing the monkeys shriek pitiably from terror and their pangs resulting not only by their struggles to get free, but the pain and suffering endured by being experimented upon, it is scarcly possibly to exaggerate the suffering these monkeys endure from acute pain, maddened by thirst resluting from Fuster’s and others’ water deprivation practices and by their vain attempts to escape. We have gone into the UCLA laboratories and seen cages set atop one another, some with two monkeys in each cage. They were drawn up into a little heap clutching one another as if collecting all their force of endurance to support the agony. Others sit in a half comatose state alone induced by intense suffering. All of socity in the future will wonder in shock how such cruelty could have been permitted in this age of supposed civilzation.
Underground cells are spreading throughout the world and even though we rarely communicate with other cells, we know in our hearts that we are strongly unified in our dedication to ending animal suffering and the extreme exploitation of animals just because these monkey experimenters can get away with it. This revolution takes more then just those who choose instead to hold signs and shout rhymes that fall on silent heartless ears. Our ethic starts from being enlightened and compassionate towards those who are powerless from the evils imparted upon them by those whose barbarism and beastiality cannot be contained unless their own lives are put at risk.
All animal oppressors and victimizers of those who are unconsenting and less powerful than themselves are going to be held fully accountable for the barbarities inflicted upon those who cannot fight back. Monkeys are not tools, commodities or human resources to inflict injustice and abuse for the greenback gravy train. We recognize the scope of the abuses sanctioned in the name of bad science and we will not tolerate these inhumanities. Vivisection is not just a crime against humanity but has become a relic of the past. Those like Fuster, London and others who engage or support vivisection do so plainly because of the profits they make by continuing to inflict severe pain and premature death on these monkeys. Vivisection still exists even though there are alternatives that are surer, safer and provide better applicability because of bureaucratic inertia and those like Fuster and London whose professional standing is threatened by new advances in science.
We will continue to follow these victimizers on and off the UCLA campus daily and will at some point be able to without notice end the infliction of pain and death on monkeys forever.
