Local Animal Rights Activist Faces Legal Charges

Local Animal Rights Activist, Jasmine Malina De La Torre, was recently subpoenaed before a court on the grounds of legal protest activity associated with the "foie gras" campaign. She is being accused of stalking, vandalism, assault, and slander. Some of these charges are due to actions that she did not even participate, and others are due to legal protest tactics that are proven to be effective. We must be there to support her in her time of need for being dedicated to advocating for the animals. Her next court date is on Monday, December 28,2009 at 9:30 am at #18 3055 Cleveland Avenue Santa Rosa, California. There will be a group of her supporters doing court solidarity for her. Hope to see you there! Thank You!

3. Stop picking on the little guy, why don't you go after big corporations like Mc Donalds."

4. " I don't eat pork, but I eat foie gras"

5. " I was not drinking (eyes all red smells like beer) Shut up you b***ch."

Call to action boycott and email writing/phone calls to Cyrus Restaurant

Foie gras is the fattened livers of ducks and geese due to forcefeeeding usually through a long metal pipe down their throats. Causing them to vomit, and gag. The metal pipe gets caught in their throats and sometimes fills their lungs with blood. This is really cruel.

Please send Douglas Keane, the chef at cyrus restaurant and email asking him to remove foie gras from the menu at douglaskeane@cyrusrestaurant.com.

Also call the restaurant saying that you will boycott their restaurant until they remove foie gras from the menu. Than you. 707.433.3311
