Animals Are Not Ours To Wear

[The Lizard]

Liz... already done!

But that would mean I'd actually read this whole thread.

 

[Dangerous]

I used to wear furs in the 70's before I knew any better.

 

[Batty for Bats!]

I don't wear furs of any kind but I do love me some leather. The way I look at it, cows are gonna get gutted anyways, why not make it into a fine jacket. Its no skin off my back. buwahahhaha. I don't endorse killing things, but might as well harvest what we can.

"With so many wonderful alternatives to wool, fur, and leather, there's simply no need to use animal skins to cover your own skin. For every wool sweater, leather belt or jacket, or bit of fur trim, animals are tortured and mutilated in ways that would make any compassionate person's skin crawl. Sheep, cows, foxes, rabbits, minks, and other animals used for their fleece, fur, or skins feel pain and suffer just like the dogs and cats in our own homes, yet chunks of their flesh are hacked off, they are electrocuted, their necks are snapped, and their throats are slit open, often without any painkillers. Join kind people everywhere and shed your skins-wear only compassionate, animal-free clothing." - PETA

Wearing animal fur is disgusting. Here's some more gross information: http://www.furisdead.com/animals.html

I didn't want to post any pictures because they're nauseating.

animals keep me warm,plus they taste like chicken

TIMBERLAKE IS MURDER

Actually, there's a lot of truth in that statement. I want a t-shirt that says that on it...

[jaguarr]

yeah, humans are animals, and in this world all that matters is which animal is strongest and most adaptable.
If a human is just an animal, nothing more, than there is no "right" or "wrong", he can kill whatever he wants to kill, why souldn't he ?
A lion doesn't sit and wring it's hands over the ethics of, say, picking off the youngest, weakest gazelle.
Why should a Human ?

The way I see it is, if any animal has to die, it should be for food first. If the remains can be used to create clothing, then fine. But an animal shouldn't be killed (in most cases horribly) because some fashion **** decided it was pretty enough to be their handbag.

On a side note, animals should never die for entertainment.

Yeah...my arms wear out after a couple of hours. They either need to make the mallet smaller or get some old sick moles who don't move so fast.

You can play that game with mink or chinchilla if you're hanging with a more affluent crowd.

I absolutely agree. I wouldn't throw paint on her shirt, but I would ask her to take it off.

haha loved this thread

Some men hunt for sport,
Others hunt for food,
The only thing I'm hunting for,
Is an outfit that looks good...

See my vest, see my vest,
Made from real gorilla chest,
Feel this sweater, there's no better,
Than authentic Irish setter.

See this hat, 'twas my cat,
My evening wear - vampire bat,
These white slippers are albino
African endangered rhino.

Grizzly bear underwear,
Turtles' necks, I've got my share,
Beret of poodle, on my noodle
It shall rest,

Try my red robin suit,
It comes one breast or two,
See my vest, see my vest,
See my vest.

Like my loafers? Former gophers -
It was that or skin my chauffeurs,
But a greyhound fur tuxedo
Would be best,

So let's prepare these dogs,

Mrs. Potts: Kill two for matching clogs,

See my vest, see my vest,
Oh please, won't you see my vest.​

Man, I saw the PETA episode of Penn & Teller's Bull*$%^ last week. Really opened my eyes.... to how full of **** they are

 

[Jolie_Desastre]

Ok wow, first of all PETA is BS. I'm sorry but it is. I didn't get a chance to read this whole thread (because all i could make out was , animals taste like chicken, and you are monsters) but correct me if i'm wrong.
What the PETA memebers do is way to drastic. i admit it i eat meat, beef, chicken, fish. I don't wear fur, I don't believe in killing for sport. But what's wrong with wool? what torture. I"ve seen way too many educational videos to see that they shave off the hair with a buzzer, they look like hairless whatchamacallits, and what do ya know? it grows back!THey are not dead! Some vegetarians that try to persuade me, omg they eat fish! even pamela anderson, ok i have no problem with her, but she wore uggs made of sheep skin, and she eats salmon, she's a animal activist!
And PETA members throw pies at designers and even go naked on the street saying i'd rather be naked then wear fur, but when you see all those naked women on the street, isn't there enough fur to go around?

I"m sorry this is too drastic, but i have had way too many ppl tell me i should change my religion, way of life, and eating habits.So this is what i think
