Two thumbs up for you james...way up! I"ve been a an ethical vegetarian for 12 yeras now and applaud your efforts.

While man may have at one time needed fur to keep warm, we have evolved and there simply is no reason for it today. There are so many other wonderful fabrics out there that will do the job and keep someone just as stylish and warm. In my opinion only extremely selfish people wear fur.

james...I am sitting here...shocked, balling my eyes out.....I really truly am.

I just watched the clip of the racoon or dog, skinned alive, and after being skinned, still lifting up it's head, looking into the camera like if asking :"WHY?"
I never, ever wear fur for a number of reasons. Not my type, not my style....and I rather leave that up to the people who have to have it "all hang out".
I am guilty of wearing leather, and I am a butcher/ meatcutter.
But, that is no where NEAR THIS!!! That IS hell on earth, to say the least.
Why do us humans play the almighty god all the time, deciding on WHAT and WHO should die, and HOW and WHEN and for WHAT ?
(Yeah...for WHAT, I would like to know too???( )
Why don't we start wearing human skin.....skinning people alive?
That would cause an uproar and an outburst....Why? Because WE are so superior???? PLEASSSSSSEEEEE!
JLo and what ever can go to hell....I would NEVER, EVER buy a product from them......they can go and keep the fur, and choke on it.
Hopefully people will boycott, and I sure hope, the time will come in the very near future.
I hope for the best......

I have received letters, depicting how dogs & cats are killed in order for the meat to be tender, juicy (this is in Korea) and tasty, they believe in a slow, tortureous death. The pictures I have seen haunt me at night, they're the last thing I think about before I fall asleep. I have written numerous letters and boycott everything from Korea. And I would never wear fur, I've heard that even faux fur is real, if it's from China or Korea. Sick...sick...sick !

I am not, in any way, bashing your efforts. However, I find articles, such as this one: Better dead than fed, PETA says to be interesting. I really don't care for an explanation or a defense of PETA. We all have causes that we hold near and dear to us.
