The Animal Liberation Front is a group in the United States that is very active and labeled by the government as a terrorist group. In this document a reader will be able to understand the background of the group, learn of some the raids and attacks the Animal Liberation Front committed, and why their activities may be hypocritical or contradictory to their own Mission Statement and purpose. ... L.F.’s use of violence seems to do nothing to solve the violence or animal exploitation that they seem to be trying to put an end to. ... This quote by Leonardo Da Vinci is on the Animal Rights Faq web page included in their 96 pages of animal rights arguments. Animal rights, the basis for the ideologies of many A.L.F. and many other animal rights activists has one fundamental principle: ‘non-human animals deserve to live according to their own natures, free from harm, abuse and exploitation’2.

L.F. and other groups see animals as humans and believe that because this is so, animal’s rights are also the same as human’s rights. ...

Finally, there is the last category of action, which is ‘civil disobedience’, which contains the least amount of people in animal activists activities. This ties directly to the Animal Liberation Front, which will be discussed later. A typical person involved in this state of Animal Rights activism will obstruct and harass people in their animal abuse activities, which will embarrass and make it difficult for these activities to occur in the future. Another action of civil disobedience that may take place is spying on animal-exploitation organizations and industries.
