Signed, we have a group on Care2 that I belong to. We have been fighting this issue since they were remanded. Amnesty International seems to have convicted them around their watercoolers and won't help them. The Green party is of some help yet still they are remanded most likely until September-still no sensible charges or civil rights such as knowing exactly what they are charged with, just vague allegations. Here is the group "Verein Gegen Tierfabriken Freedom for the 10 activists". This is not just happening in Austria, its here in the US, and in most countries. We should be fighting this to make certain that we are safe also. 9 million activists yet this group that is fighting for the rights of AR activists has probably less than 200 members. WE are sending out about 13+ emails per day to the Austrian officials. Could use all the help we can get. We closed out a petition that can't be printed because care2 glitch that doesn't seem to be worked out days later. So we need constant contact. Please do what you can for these people, one is being force fed by the jail after hunger striking for weeks.

we can't do enough to help them, this is beyond unfair, it is criminal action against innocent people! keep reposting in all other forums!
