NEW YEARS EVE HLS INVESTOR PROTEST
Protesters walked the short walk to Peter Laventhols residence, which sits across the street from the popular New York City landmark, the MOMA (Museum Of Modern Art). Activists protested at the killing of 500 animals every day by the monsters of Huntingdon Life Sciences. Peter Laventhol has significantly reduced his position in Huntingdon Life Sciences (trading on NYSE Arca as LSR) but is still the number 2 institutional investor with 18,900 shares.
The raised voices of activists on the street prompted one of the residents of Laventhols building to come out to talk to protesters. This woman was very sincere and told the protesters that Peter was a very nice man, that he loved cats and that he even did not eat very much meat (*eyes rolling to heaven*). She encouraged activists to take their protests to a fur sale that was being held at a nearby hotel!
A question was asked of her. If Peter is such a nice guy, why is it that he has ignored the correspondence of activists that have done their best to educate him about the horrors of Huntingdon Life Sciences? Why has he disregarded multiple requests for a face to face meeting or even a telephone meeting? Her answer was that she would take the flyer to Peter and she would ask him those questions. Since we have heard nothing from Laventhol and he still holds the shares, clearly he isn't as nice a guy as she thinks. Time to up the ante, Laventhol.
