UNOFFENSIVE UPDATE! 

Last Friday we joined our comrades in OVIA Castellón, in Spain, to have a workshop on hunt sabbing. We left with an incredible feeling of reassurance that the activists in that association are not only completely devoted to the animal rights cause but also highly caring for social issues.

Hunt Sabs Castellón might be the first Spanish sabbing group ever and we cannot wait to see what they are going to bring to the movement. In the workshop, we covered from how to become an official Hunt Sab group within the HSA to sabbing techniques. It was also wonderful to be able to SHARE the talk and learn more about hunting in Spain by listening to the folks that want to start the group.

Until then, we are open to them and to anyone else that needs a workshop on anything we can help. Traveling isn’t a problem thanks to our supporters, so hit us up and we will do our best to be there!

HAMBACHER FORST – UNOFFENSIVE UPDATES! 

The climate in Hambi is electrifying. There are loud bangs and smoke covering the sky almost every night. Since the Hambi 9 got locked up activists have not taken a second to rest. It is almost as if they want to say; ‘if they don’t get released, we will burn the whole planet’.

Today we are going to dedicate the day to publish actions taken by autonomous groups in solidarity with the Hambi 9. At the end of today, we will also release the addresses of all activists so you can write letters to them.

A few of the banged-up activists will have their court case tomorrow so hold your horses on sending them, we will let you know if it is necessary.

Remember that there is a call to action on the 3rd of February against all RWE infrastructure and against the justice system and prisons. From noise demos to colourful actions or underground activities, it is up to you to decide how you want to show love for our compañeres in prison.

Enjoy the ride over some of the actions reported.

SEE YOU IN THE NEXT RIOT!

UNOFFENSIVE UPDATE – FREE HAMBI 9!

Hambacher Forst Poster

Today we spent the day in front of the Court in Düren. Five of the nine activists arrested and incarcerated during the last barricade eviction in Hambacher Forst were released without charges and still completely anonymous.

The emotions during each and every release were beautifully electrifying. Tears of happiness and relieve run down my cheeks a couple of times when I saw the face of those who I love being free again to feel the air, to listen to the birds, to fight and of course to love.

There are still another four fearless activists locked up behind bars. Don’t forget to write to them and to thank them for their amazing work.

Knowing that this is a very short update, I will leave this as it is because today is a day of love and hugs and not screens.

Rage, love and of course freedom.

PRISONS ARE FOR BURNING.

URGENT FUND APPEAL!

At Unoffensive Animal, we like to cause havoc in as many places as possible. In the next 45 days, we are planning to visit France, Switzerland, Germany, Spain and the UK to take part in actions, help at occupations and organise workshops.

Our next step is working alongside Hunt Saboteurs Sweden to aid the sabotage of Wolf Hunts happening right now.

We have found a train ticket that allows us to travel through Europe for 2 months at a much cheaper rate than individual trips, but it is still over 250€.

We need your help to make this happen. If you can spare some coins please drop us a donation on our PayPal.

If on the other hand, you’d like to support us on a monthly basis, our Patreon isn’t taking off as much as we would like, so have a look at the link.

HAMBI UPDATE! – UNOFFENSIVE REPORTS

After the cops threatening with barricade eviction and us waking up very early to have tofu sausages and a bit of fun with the “authorities” they didn’t turn up to play. What can we say, their lack of professionalism is tangible!

We have heard that hambis have been working hard reinforcing the entrances to the forest so that might be why they decided to prepare a little more. Who knows what the ecoterrorists have up their sleeve?!

They will come and we will be waiting for them with fun, games and a lot of creativity!

Until then… HAMBI BLEIBT!!

SEE YOU IN THE NEXT RIOT.

HAMBACHER FOREST UPDATE

 
It has been an interesting couple of weeks in the forest. With actions almost every day and sabotages being reported on multiple occasions, it surely has been a fun time in the forest during the winter holidays.
 
Unoffensive arrived a couple of days ago to find out that RWE was demolishing a (now ghost town) village close to the mine to be able to keep digging.
 
The locals were broken and disheartened, seeing the old church being demolished was something that none of them was expecting to happen.
 
The morning of the demolition, some activists from Greenpeace climbed the church and did a banner drop whilst Hambis occupied neighbouring rooftops to stop the machine from demolishing the buildings.
 
Sadly, the cops managed to take everybody down and RWE was allowed to carry on with their work.
 
Everybody was taken to the police station and later released without charges.
 
Meanwhile, the local filth has informed us that they are interested in evicting the barricades INSIDE of the forest and also that they would like to bring politicians from the parliament to visit the occupation. We cannot promise that they will have it easy.
 
THE STRUGGLE CONTINUES. WE ARE NOT GOING ANYWHERE.
 
HAMBI BLEIBT!

ON LOVING AND FIGHTING

I am aware that we have already published an end-of-the-year photo but this member of the collective has many things in their head.

We call ourselves anarchists and we call ourselves activists. We basically mean that we refuse hierarchies and that we can see a better world and that we will act to reach that world. We aren’t dreamers, we are warriors.

There is no doubt that the road is hard and that the work is not easy. We endure the fight. Day after day we stand up and oppose the oppression. Night after night we reach out to show the alternative. “There is no rest”, we say, and we actually mean it.

We fight. We get wet and walk on the mud and stay awake all night to keep guard. We force our fear to quiet down when a riot cop runs towards us. We submerge ourselves on missions that could make us lose our freedom for decades. We fight.

We fight with passion because we are warriors. We fight because without fighting we would not be able to change the world around us. We fight because we love.

It is only because we love that we have to fight. Only because we cannot see the suffering in front of us and keep passive. We only fight because we love.

Loving and fighting keep being my only focuses in life. So long as I love the Earth, so long as I love its inhabitants, so long as I love freedom, I will fight.

May your future bring you reasons to love and reasons to fight.

UNTIL THE NEXT RIOT.
