Then why don't you ask the almighty animals for a solution to all our world's problems?

LOL there's no need for animals to solve the world problems. Specially when most of these problems are created by humans themselves. And please, don't tell me that you're solving the world problems by wearing real fur coats and cruely killing and torturing animals.

I never called animals almighty. In fact I agreed with you that yes humans are almighty *******. The point of my statement was to challenge yours by saying that just because we're almighty dosent mean we have to abuse that power. Simply because our power is there dosent mean we shoulkd use it. Id hate to see you as a president of any country during war. By your remarks you'd be that idiot ruler who throws nukes the first chace you get, just because "you have the power to". Please read all comments, even twice, before you start getting smart. And yeah I'm with Impact. Even if animals could solve our problems, why? We're the idiots that cause all of them. You think killing an abundant of animals is harmless when you're actually disrupting a thing called the food chain. You kill a bunch of one animal in an area, you disrupt the system, and while I doubt your minds evolved enough to look at it from a bigger picture, yes it does affect us.

it's horrible if people think it's acceptable to kill animals for their fur, for the sake of fashion. killing animals for food is one thing, it's how the food chain keeps going, for one's survival. but having an animal suffer just to make yourself look good, ..there's just no excuse for that. i wonder how the people who work skinning animals can live with themselves :S

I don't think it's acceptable..
But it's not exactly "wrong." I mean, just how long has mankind been killing animals? :| Surely if our species was as adamant about saving animals back when we were all primitive people, we'd certainly not be here today discussing this. The mammoths and tigers of that age would've wiped us out. It's not like they care for our feelings, hm? Seems like one of the flaws in humanity is that we feel compassion for many things that we shouldn't..

Just to point something out, it was recently revealed that certain lines of clothing in America which claimed to be faux fur were actually REAL fur culled from raccoon dogs (which are actually dogs that have raccoon-like markings). Seems that the heads of the companies were unaware of it due to the fact that the clothes are made in third-world countries.
So if you're wearing faux, you might be wearing man's best friend. I'm anti-fur as well but I'm telling you from personal experience, PETA people are insane. |

And as for the fur debate: Yes, fur bad. Skinning animals alive = bad and unnecessary. Think of it as being your own car or dog being skinned - I'm sure you'd be against that unless you are a psychopath. Whether Ayu wears real fur or not? She probably has. Whether she knows she is wearing real fur is unknown. Last edited by SunshineSlayer; 6th March 2007 at 03:31 AM. |

I do think it would be neat though if Hamasaki toured with a coat made of dolphins

I do strongly disagree with people skinning animals alive. That's just cruel and we don't need real fur into todays world. You can put on a coat if you think you're going to freeze to death, not skin the farthest thing away from you. |

I seriously have a problem with people who see fur as uacceptable and still enjoy their chicken and cow and dog meat. Because as long as the animals is killed in the same humane way (NOT like in those chinese videos posted by link, and not all fur farmers treat their animals that way at all) I don't think there's a difference. Whether or not the animal is killed only for its fur I think would not matter to the animal.
Also, allthough I do not agree with PETA or their methods, I think their found reasoning is very thought through and reasonable because they are not dividing animals into the ones that are ok to kill and the ones that aren't worthy of such recognition. I don't see how any human at this point is able to tell "oh, those animals aren't suffering as much as these, they can be boiled alive and but OH! if these are even killed humanely it's horrendeous!" By reasoning in such a manner in the end it boils down to which animals who're cute and cuddly enough or which ones are traditionally domesticated and that differs from culture to culture. |

^ I agree with *Petit* , as long as you enjoy meat & animal products complaining about the fur-indrustry is hypocrisy. the quality of living is often better for the animals in the fur-farms than in the meat indrustry , the only difference is what happens to the animals after they've been killed.
the anti-fur material often used (whick -link- linked in this thread too) originates from China. in the western fur-indrustry the methods of killing/skinning are much more humane. in China animal rights don't really exist , and people don't know better than to skin animals alive. fake fur doesn't compare to the real thing.

I wonder if animal rights activists have like, yelled at the people who live in the mountains who don't really have the option of "coats" and kill animals for the fur / food.. :O

I really don’t understand how you people don’t see that. You don’t need fashion to survive, you don’t need it to stay healthy, wearing it does NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING that makes you benefit from it. And no I don’t agree with any method of killing an animal inhuman, I'm not some PETA-obsessed freak, I just think we can live without using fur that’s all. IT’S COMPLETELY POINTLESS Quote:

Yeah, I don't get it either. Fur is something completely frivolous - food is not.

Wow this has turned into a moral argument about fur trade. Well wearing fur is something extremely cruel and stupid. I've done a whole project about it.
If you try researching about the fur trade you'll realise the huge amount of cruelty involved for these animals to make a dumb fur coat. These animals are grown in fur farms and they live in tiny cages. Since they are not used to a small environment they suffer psychological problems and self-mutilation. Also to kill them (since most companies are too cheap to use shots) they use cheaper methods - electrocution, drowning and many other cruel methods. I'm not so familiar with PETA but hiding behind their insane actions to justify a cruel activity such as fur trade is pure idiocy and cowardice. Personally whoever supports this trade doesn't deserve my respect and is a sadistic fashion sheep. There are many fake alternatives which are just as pretty as real fur or leather so why people still enjoy wasting money on fur coats? It's really dumb. I agree with killing an animal for food though I don't eat meat or fish myself. But some people are unable to survive without meat and I won't shove my philosophy down their throat. But killing an animal for fashion is something I cannot accept. It's a cruel money-making activity.
