Okay, so I got sent a video on YouTube that just about made me puke. I elected not to post the video on this forum because it was one of the most vile and horriffic things I have ever seen in my life. Like seriously, it made the Faces of Death movies look like the care bears. If anyone want to see it let me know, but I swear to you, you’ll have nightmares for years so I don’t reccommend it. Words can’t even describe how awful I feel right now after watching it.
To get to the basic point I want everyone to PLEASE sign this petition for banning fur. Fur is murder, plain and simple and they don’t waste a bullet on these defenseless animals. It’s simply one of the cruelest things mankind is capable of and it needs to be stopped!
Not that a little online petition is enough, but it’s at least a small step in the right direction that takes no time out of your schedule. SO PLEASE sign! There isn’t even 1,000 signitures on it. That in itself is a tragedy!!!

June 30, 2007 at 2:40 pm #593537I’m going to take your word about the video. I don’t want to see it. I don’t have to. I’ve thought for a long time that fur looks best on the animals, not on us.
June 30, 2007 at 2:45 pm #593538No, believe me you don’t want to see it. I can’t believe I forced myself to watch it, but it’s just one of those things you can’t ignore. It’s like you have to force youself so you remember what exactly these sick people do to animals. I probably wouldn’t be posting on a hundred different sites right now if I just clicked the “x” and didn’t watch it. In my own sickest thoughts about this topic I could never even imagine what I saw. I guess it just wakes you up to the reality and that we need to try our best to do something about it instead of ignoring it.

June 30, 2007 at 5:08 pm #593542I find people despicable who skin an animal while it’s still alive. Cruelty to animals is inexcusable. But my fur coat is the warmest piece of clothing I own, and I like it. I don’t think wearing fur per se is wrong. I think supporting jerks who torture animals to get that fur is wrong. The petition is too generalized. So sorry, drag0n, but I won’t sign it.
June 30, 2007 at 5:45 pm #593543I can understand that GB…though generalized or not fur industries don’t waste the money on a bullet for these creatures. They are skined alive! If you want to buy pelts from Native Americans who actually eat what they kill or leather from cows that are proessed we then eat then I have no problem. (Well, I have alot of problems, but that’s how the world works unfortunately)
At least (for the most part) those animals die quickly and or/humanely and that’s life I guess. That’s also another reason why I don’t eat veal or any kosher meat.
For animals to be massacared and living, breathing carcasses piled like a war scene is brutal and unnecessary is all I’m saying. I, myself, own a fox tail and a raccoon tail, which I hope and pray weren’t from some kind of brutal scene like I saw today. Now I feel sick even saying I own such things, but I do. So your not alone there. I may sound like a hypocrite, but just the terrible and brutal ways fur manufacturers obtain their merchandise is diplorable. Let them charge an extra dollar a coat (since that are already tens of thousands of dollars) and shoot the poor things if they have to. Beating them, chopping off their paws and noses, ripping their skin off and letting them slowly rot away in piles is unforgivable. I hope the people who work in this businesses have slow and agonizing deaths themselves.
Myself, peronally, think they have had major breakthroughs with faux fur and there are tons of different furs that are fake and feel just as real.
Sorry if I offended anyone with this rant, but I don’t think I sound that unreasonable. It’s just my opinion, so please don’t get upset.

June 30, 2007 at 8:13 pm #593545Not to start a fight or anything, but videos like that typically show only the worst of the worst. You can find similar videos about animals killed for human food, which urge people to stop eating meat under the assumption that all animals killed for food are tortured before they die! This is hardely so. As with any industry that involves animals, there will ALWAYS be those that opporate cleanly and humanely, and then there will be those like the place in that video. I for one do not support banning fur just because SOME places do not opperate humanely. Same as I will not stop eating meat or eggs just because SOME places do not treat their food-animals humanely. If you are concerned about where your fur comes from, you can always just switch to buying fur products from wild-killed animals or ones that were farm-raised in the US. The US has standards for animal treatment far beyond what you will see in a place like china. While it may not always be followed (like any rule) it certainly has a much better chance of being followed than a similar law or regulation in China! I tend to like fur over synthetics as it is much warmer. I do not wear it for fashion, but for function. In northern climates, all they use is fur. If you choose not to wear fur, I respect that, but please do not beleive the first gorey video that comes your way. It will likely have been created by an Animal Rights org anyway. Their goal is not only to end all animal consumption and use, but to also end the keeping of all pets!
Personally, I see using fur to keep me warm as being no different than eating meat when I am hungry.
