Climate of Fear Part 50

Animal Rights Terrorists win another victory by threatening to kill a scientist's children:


Anti-animal research groups are trumpeting Ringach's move as a victory, while some researchers are worried that it could embolden such groups to use more extreme tactics.

Ringach's name and home phone number are posted on the Primate Freedom Project's Web site, and colleagues and UCLA officials said that Ringach was harassed by phone — his office phone number is no longer active — and e-mail, as well as through demonstrations in front of his home.

In an e-mail this month to several anti-animal research groups, Ringach wrote that 'you win,' and asked that the groups 'please don't bother my family anymore.'

According to the same story, earlier this year Animal Liberation Front terrorists used a molotov cocktail againt one of Ringach's co-workers.
