    Given that this guy has previously been charged with violations of the Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act, you’ll have to forgive my skepticism that he was wrongfully arrested. Sounds like a guy who didn’t learn his lesson the first time.

      If you read what he was charged with, it was releasing 5,740 mink from fur farms causing economic damages above $100,000.

      Those mink farms are absolutely horrific. So the “lesson” he didn’t learn seems to be extreme animal cruelty is perfectly fine, and standing up against it is not. To me, that sounds like a good lesson to ignore.

        Everyone knows that ethics and the law are basically the same thing. /s
