"The animal rights activists who are standing trial in Austria and facing
up to five years in prison without justification need your help! Not only
have the Austrian parliament refused to amend the anti-mafia law that has
been misused against the activists, but it is now about to vote on a new
anti-terrorist law which, according to Amnesty International, can be another
powerful weapon against inconvenient social activists!
Please protest
against the violations of human rights by sending an email to the Austrian
politicians:
http://www.shameonaustria.org/en/protest.php. Share this link with your
friends!
We also need activists to participate in our worldwide chain
campaign by organising a protest action in your town/country. Recently,
Czech activists have managed to appear in the mainstream media with the
blockade of a Czech-Austrian border crossing, but we certainly need more
media attention. Write to
english@shameonaustria.org if you are ready to participate.
Thanks for your help!"
And here are some videos of a demo organized
for the Austrian activists in the Czech Republic, it was shown on TV :
