Animals Are Not Ours To Wear

[Carter]

I'll sink my teeth into your steak.

Tube steak.
No biting

 

[cryptic name]

animals are ours to eat, wear and sexually assault, though the last one is mostly reserved for the sick people that enjoy it.

don't knock it till you've tried it...

"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.

Yeah, but they taste so good, and they make you feel all tingly when you wear them.

It's been said a billion times, but it's true.

I love meat, and I have a cool leather jacket.
But I wonder what percentage of people who feel that way would change their minds if they had to slaughter and skin the animals themselves.

I've skinned and explored the organs of a mouse, a frog and an iguana. Fascinating but grosser than a lot of the wusses I know would care to see.

Some of it depends on how you're raised, I think. I grew up killing and field-dressing deer, elk, game birds and fish. I also have killed beef cattle that we raised from calves and prepped them for butchering. Would I do it all the time if I had to in order to get meat for the table? Absolutely. There's really no reason to do it myself, now, though, given the time constraints I have with all the other things I need to do in life. That's why people are able to make a career out of specializing in something. I don't build my own furniture, bake my own bread, or construct my own house, even though I know how to, either.

i've done it before, but if i had to go through all that every time, i would probably eat less meat because i'm very lazy.

I dont have to convince you, your cholesterol will do all the talking.

that will bring the cholesterol down!

So people, don't forget to eat wheat and nopales(Opuntia).. they taste good and will bring your cholesterol to healthy levels!!!!


And this thread rocks...

 

[Mr. Walters]

I'm not against wool...the Sheep still are alive afterwards.

I'm not against leather, since the cow the leather has come from is consumed in other ways.

I am not against eating meat. God gave me pointy teeth and a digestive system that is able to digest meat. How could I be so pretentious as to undo God's handy work?

 

[Corinthian™]

Killer whales also enjoy the sport of killing. Ever seen a pod of them slapping a baby seal back and forth between them like a volleyball?

I love jag

I had to gut a fish and prepare it for cooking when I was ten....kids were throwing up and crying everywhere...


I had to push its poopy out of his fish butt hole

I think I shall eat a steak while lounging around in my leather jacket on my leather comforter. While wearing a leather belt.

By now,there is alternatives to fur.So animals do not really need to be killed for their skin today.

Oh no, they do.

yeah, but imitation fur is tacky and cheap.

What? Animals are tortured for WOOL? Skinning I can understand, wool I cannot. It's like getting a haircut - it grows BACK. They had an article in the paper about a year ago about a feral sheep they found in the UK that had wandered off from it's flock. It looked like a crazed chia pet - it's fleece was so thick and long that it couldn't SEE. Sounds like shearing it would be more humane thing, eh?

And I like my filet mignons rare, baby. Mmm mmm, tender Alberta beef. And I like my dining animals young - give me lamb! Give me veal! None of this "I thought you loooooooooved me, looooooooved me" crap.

Besides - I'm ALWAYS suspect of PETA. They're the folks who care more about animals than people - to the point where they hand out mentally-scarring comicbooks full of graphic dead animals pictures to SMALL CHILDREN who accompany their parents to the theatre. Comicbooks with the title: "Your mommy kills animals." Say it with me: Cah-Ray-Zay.

It doesn't have any of that yummy Death Energy.

*Homer Simpson* Hmmm....death....*gurgles*

If meat is murder, then murder is delicious.

Read Douglas Adam's Restaurant at the End of the Universe, y'all. In that book, they have cows that live to be eaten, that love to be eaten. That's the kind of cow we should have here.
