UK ALF Press Officer to Speak in CHICAGO!!!

An Evening with Robin Webb!!! The UK Animal Liberation Front Press Officer, GAndALF defendant and now facing trumped up charges in the US.
Feb 12th at 7:00pm (Wed)
A-Zone (2129 N. Milwaukee, Chicago)
Robin Webb, 58, the UK Press Officer for the Animal Liberation Front (ALF), has booked numerous speaking engagements around the country. His outspoken condemnation of society's treatment of animals has seen the British police "lock him up to shut him up" and wage what the National Union of Journalists called an "extraordinary
vendetta" against him.

At a demonstration in New Jersey, Robin was arrested for allegedly being the 51st person at a demonstration where an injunction only allowed 50 protesters. After being jailed for 8 days on $50,000 bail, being stripped of his passport, and not allowed to return to his life, partner, and companion animals in England, Robin has set out in the US
to spread the message of direct action on behalf of animal liberation.

"The FBI considers the ALF the number one domestic terrorist
organization in the U.S.," notes Mr. Webb. "I am eager to dispel that notion and hail the ALF as the freedom fighters they are, no different than the Underground Railroad or the celebrators of the Boston Tea Party. There's no doubt that the courts will wish they'd let me return home after hearing what I have to say."

Mark you calendar now, this event is not to be missed!!!
