[while I may not support ELP, it's just wrong when I can order a vegan meal every time I fly on almost any airline - so it might be good to follow up on this - Will] ----- forwarded message ----- Date: Wed, 16 Jan 2002 19:00:08 -0000 From: "ELP Support Network" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: US Animal Rights prisoner denied vegan food
Urgent ELP! Urgent Action Request! (16th January 2002) Dear friends ELP has just learnt that Jon Batchelor is currently in Fairfax County Jail and he is being denied a vegan diet. Jon's prison number is #1998-76507 If you live in the USA please call the jail 703-246-2100 and politely ask that Jon be allowed to follow the ethical vegan diet of his choice. You may wish to mention that if Jon does not eat any food his health will suffer and you are concerned about his health. Jon has told his supporters that he thinks the jail will respond more favourably to his requests for vegan food if people from the outside phone up concerned about his health. You may also want to phone the jail's medical department on 703-246-4459. So get dialling now! Oh and as well as the phonecalls, don't forget those letters of support! Letters should be addressed to: Jon Batchelor c/o Mutual Aid Legal Fund P.O. Box 95616 Seattle, WA. 98145-2616 U.S.A. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Prison is a weapon used by the State to crush individuals who step out of line" (Michael Collins - former Mayday 2000 prisoner) Support All Animal & Earth Liberation Prisoners Spirit of Freedom (Earth Liberation Prisoners) c/o Cornerstone Resource Centre, Leeds, LS7 3HB, England E-Mail < [EMAIL PROTECTED] > < www.spiritoffreedom.org.uk > Earth Liberation Prisoners Newsletter/Urgent ELP!
