A militant guniea pig lovers club apparently seem to have scammed loads of money for their activities somehow involving desecrating a grave - obviously linked somehow.
This article ->
from the usually fairly reliable not too ridiculous does not include pictures of women's boobs Times offers no assistance whatsoever it would seem.
It does offer a few suggestions towards funding such activity if your marching outrage behaviour ever spirals a litle further out of control though. Go free some guinea pigs adam go on i dare you.
Which begs a question also - why just guinea pigs? they are apparently untouched by the plight of monkeys, mice other such animals is this usual?
Any views which may illuminate how the freeing of guinea pigs may have needed a desecrated grave would be good. I presume you know these kind of things....
Do you really think the freeing of guinea pigs requires 20 computers?
I am confused. is this just me?

I didn't do it :-)
Hey, it wasn't me honest...! Have to say I've never marched quite so extremely as that lot. I also don't know a lot about it, animal rights is not one of my usuals - human rights first! Although I don't know why I think that sometimes...
My suggested answers to your questions...devil's adovcate and all:
1) I'm sure they have a problem with other such institutions and it's not just guinea pigs. The Newchurch guineapig farm was just an obvious and documented good place to start for people with those beliefs. Their website has links to many other campaigns against animal cruelty from bloodsports, to your fave Huntington, anti-vivisection etc.
2) Erm...couldn't quite say why a desecrated grave came to their minds. However I understand some of their group used it as especially grim blackmail; i.e. we have the body of your dead mother-in-law, close your farm and we will return it. They also threatened to steal some one else's dead relative too - nice!
3) Computers...well, they sure did their research on their enemies, and clearly presented a compelling public campaign to get support. I guess you need some hi-tech to help that...but not quite sure why you'd need quite twenty!?
Any of that sound plasuible to you? I loved the way that the Times explained absolutely nothing.
It was a properly nasty campaign though, death-threats and all. Although the place was disgusting and the owners non-too-pleasant it would seem. Probably didn't help that "peaceful" protest, according to the wonderful Schnews, was near enough banned. There is such a thing as taking things far too far though...!
Saying that, their campaign worked. None of mine have quite had the world-changing effect they should yet. Go figure... :-)
