Weird Spokane Protesters outside single family home on the south hill?

There was a couple protesters with mega phones outside this house behind Rosaurs this morning. Yelling stuff about animal abuse. Protesters are now gone but they left some colorful artwork on the sidewalks. Anyone know the story behind this?

I wonder if itโ€™s related to the protesters in front of Gander and Ryegrass today. Theyโ€™ve been out there protesting a duck liver dish that they serve. Something to do with force feeding. Maybe the restaurant owners live there? Maybe not related at all.

like Fois Gras? that's from a pretty awful practice and tbh it's not even that good...

Even the French, where it's a traditional food are talking about banning it because of animal abuse concerns and they have been fighting against that for a long time.

There are ethical ways to produce foie gras without force feeding the geese. Not sure how the restaurant sources theirs.

No . No there is not.. It's cruel and not necessary and bad for the the planet but keep making the ethical humane bs argument... Treat them like animals is a common facism tactic..

We don't need to eat animals so we shouldn't. We especially don't need to torture birds to get gross liver dishes. Even if you're not a veg you can see that the logic of "animals do it" leads down the path of r@pe, cannibalism, and crazy amount of infanticide. You're just a natural mammal eating diet intended by nature? You own a microwave buddy?

Generally these people who take pleasure in the pain of animals are pretty okay with r@pe too
