15 years ago today, the Animal Liberation Front destroyed the headquarters of a primate breeding company in Reno, Nevada.
“In the early morning hours of May 18th, four incendiary devices were planted at Scientific Resources International, a supplier of non-humyn primates for use in vivisection labs all over northern Nevada. The concept of animals existing as ‘resources’ is utterly despicable, and we vow to do all in our power to run businesses like these into the ground.

Local media reported that the fire caused $300,000 in damages to the offices of Scientific Resources International.
No one was arrested.
