Mexico - "PASSIVITY MAKES YOU COMPLICIT"

received anonymously:

"January 11:
Seeing that our brother animals were victims of torture and their torturers were exploiting them to earn more and more money, the Animal Liberation Front - Commando Green Black attacked Rolan's Circo, a circus that uses dogs and sea lions in its 'shows.' Tired of this situation we decided to paint slogans on circus trucks, on the tent, and on walls.
Passivity makes you complicit, use direct action and declare war on speciesm!

Spanish:

La pasividad te hace complice, utilicemos la Accion Directa y declaremosle la guerra al especismo!
