What about Cow fur? I could never give up my cow fur.

I do not own a gun, nor do I own fur, but that does not make me dislike any one who does! People have been wearing fur for thousands of years...are you saying they were wrong too? It is no different than raising chickens, cows or pigs ...
Every one has an opinion, and they are entitled to it but that does not give allowance for mud slinging.

If any of you ever want to go to a fashion show, NY or LA Fashion Weekk, Just let me know. And you can keep wearing fur.
I mean the Kitty was in Neiman's and told the guy in the fur vault that her name was Miss Kitty.

i was just thinking about this whole thing, and wouldn't it be nearly impossible to wear absolutely nothing that came from animals ? do the even make totally organic/vegetarian clothes ? and i'll bet they are mondo expensive....

Birkenstock even makes synthetic faux leather shoes.
Now just avoid eating jello, and anything made with gelatin.
I think plants are too overlooked. What about all the plants that we kill to eat?

Obviously if you need meat to live..so be it... but people that enjoy killing and skinning the animal have problems. If you use the entire animal for your survival that is one thing, but to skin a fox or chinchilla just to have a pretty coat and throw the rest away is disgusting. am I wrong?

Do you own any leather?

My thoughts exactly SJ. I do not know many people that are true vegans, wear nothing made from some type of animal or an animal byproduct .

I think you have made some good points about the use of animals for luxury purposes. but, we all do it (well, most of us do anyway). we always have... and probably will for a long time to come. but that doesn't make it the right thing to do...
there are many things about how animals are treated while raising/processing mass quantities for food, etc. we don't like to think about it. but, maybe we should. fur is just another product, and has been for a gazillion years. is it right or wrong? I don't know... but I don't think its a priority matter compared to so many other wrongs in this world... in other words, it's not important to me (but I'm just one person).

I assure you, it is all about the money. If the money was as good and it were legal, they would probably just as likely kill the rich ladies who are begging for the fur.
