Guest guest Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Moderator's Note: VegNod will support a Staples demonstration, but we will need help from our membership. We need our members to be our eyes and ears in DFW by doing reconnaissance to identify Staples stores with street front visibility and public sidewalk access. Please contact me if you wish to help organize this demo. Also, please contact me if you are able to do reliable recon to identify a store at which to protest. The SHAC alert follows....Thanks. Margaret**************** New Supplier caught out: STAPLES============================Stationary supplier Staples (www.staples.co.uk) has been caught sneaking into HLS in unmarked vans. This shady kind of behaviour means they clearly do not want the public shame of helping the Huntingdon poisoning factory.What you can do:* Contact Staples and tell them you will boycott them whilst they support animal cruelty. Let them know about Huntingdons appalling track record for animal cruelty!* Don't shop at Staples!* Organise leafleting, or peaceful demo's at your local store.

They are the only facility to have had their licence revoked after being exposed for horrific acts of cruelty.They were most famously exposed in 1997 by channel four when they went undercover, and filmed beagle puppies being swung and punched, as well as staff incompetence and sloppy procedures.One recent expose in 2005 details the experience of two women who worked in the beagle unit at HLS. Nothing has changed and cruelty and violence is still common place.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 there is a Staples near me (east Dallas- I-30 E) but its inside a strip-type mall, with public sidewalks, but no frontage on a well-known or busy street.Margaret Morin <dogs_good wrote: Moderator's Note: VegNod will support a Staples demonstration, but we will need help from our membership.
