Why We Don't Recommend Donating to NAALPO
North American Animal Liberation Press Office (NAALPO) is an organization that assists Animal Liberation Front (ALF).
In a 2005 U.S. Senate hearing, the FBI identified ALF as one of the two "most active criminal extremist elements in the United States," and the chairman overseeing the hearing called ALF "terrorists by definition."
Later, in 2013, the Department of Homeland Security published a report documenting bombing and arson attacks that had been committed by ALF (and ELF, its environmentalist counterpart).
Criminal activity undermines the credibility of the animal protection movement, and should not be supported. And although NAALPO may not commit crimes themselves, they exist to assist an enterprise that does. Accordingly, we do not recommend donating to NAALPO.
