No medication I take comes from any labs that test on animals.

None, Ever? Many Many medical treatments have been tested on animals. How would you know that no treatment you have ever taken has been tested on animals

Because I know what I take, I know who produces the medication I take, and I know their stances on animal testing.

You would possibly guess wrongly, as you don't know. Furthermore, that is not the issue here. The issue is about a group of freaks who think that disagreeing with somebody else's choice of job entitles them to terrorise and dig up bodies.

No, you're right I don't know - I could only assume from

I hope they set up business elsewhere, and make a whole lot more profits than before. Oh, and that's my opinion, so it's not debatable.

You say freaks, I say passionate, if a little extreme.

I'm trying to find a link atm... but afaik this family has tried to return to farming sheep/cattle etc.

The fanatics have said that this will still make them a legitimate target for action.

Let's hope their farming methods are little more ethical then....

That merely states my attitude towards people in business. Legal business, I might add.

And if it's a question of definition, someone digging up a grave just yells "FREAK", IMO. But if you think that it's merely "a little extreme", then fair enough.

I just think it would be justice if their business were to do well, after the treatment they have suffered at the hands of passionate, slightly extreme, freaks; or should I just say, animals who don't deserve to be saved themselves. It would also be a reward for their courage in facing up to these bullies.

That's the difference between you and I - I cannot overlook the type of business they run, therefore I'm glad it's closed, and I would not under any circumstances want them to do well running anything similar.

There are a lot of businesses that I don't think are particularly pleasant, but "live and let live" and all that. Unfortunately the world can't be shaped to please or appease any one group od individuals.

Not good enough for me. I assume that you have never had medical treatment, and will refuse any medication or invasive hospital treatment that you might require in the future?

Not only do I condem the terrorists behind this, I condemn there cause. While I think its wrong to be in the furious persuit of elixir of life, to prevent HLS, and that Oxford University research laboratory from giving young, otherwise healthy, people, and children the chance to leave fulfilling and enriching lives is grotesque.

What do these companies like the Body Shop test their products on? Humans?
