    To get started, I would like to say that fur has been worn by women throughout the ages. Some might say they wear it to look wealthy, or sophisticated. In my opinion, fur isnt bad, its real fur that is terrible. There are so many different forms of clothing you can wear to portray that image. DONT TURN TO FUR! Right now on Chinese fur farms (not saying that its only China) workers are skinning these animals alive! It brings terrible pain to the animal, and even after the skinning, many of them are still struggling to hold on to life.

    go to furisdead.com
    Watch this video, and you will see what i am talking about. Be cautious, its very graphic! Watch the "shocking look into chinese fur farms" video.

    Just remember, animals are you friends, and they dont insist on wearing your skin.

    I think its horrible what those poor animals go through and how they suffer.
    I've seen video's a year or so ago showing how they obtain fur from rabbits and chinchillas and I couldn't watch the whole thing cause I was in tears and felt so sick to my stomach!

    celebrities set alot of trends so its nice when you hear about them sporting fake fur and protesting against wearing real fur.

    as much as I'm against killing animals for fur or anything for that matter It really annoyed me to hear about those peta protesters that were throwing paint on people wearing fur coats! I think thats a little too extream. they should try talking to them and educating them about their message and maybe they can change the way the person feels about wearing fur and get them to stop that way. calling them murderers and covering them in paint only pisses the fur wearer off and then they'll probably wear fur just to spite those who don't!!

    I think by spreading the word and educating people on what these animals go through just so that people can be "fashionable" is the best way to stop the process of fur altogether, if people truly care and have a heart after hearing the message they'll stop wearing fur, and if they don't.... then you should throw paint on them ;) MMMUUUUUHHHHAAAA!
    lol j/k

    I hate people that wear fur...I personally find it disgusting that people use the misfortune of animals as a fashion sense.

    i concur, fur sucks. doesnt even look nice on most people anyway, just tacky. i might be down with fur if they didnt do it so fucked up(those videos are FUCKED if you can stomach that much reality).. like i read about one guy who was making fur stuff from dead animals he found on the side of the road, that i have no problem with... and we could probably start a fur industry JUST from all the roadkill in this country, but were not, so fuck fur for now.

    leather also really sucks, not only did you raise and kill an animal inhumanely to get it, but its not environmentally sound at all to process and create. forget exactly why but i remember it being really really bad... at first i was totally down with leather, i was like yeah use and recycle all the parts from an animal youve killed, but then someone enlightened me about it even though i forget why its bad now...

    its hard to get angry at people who wear the shit though, its like someone asked me if i was a bad person before i stopped eating meat? my first reaction was yes, but then i thought about it and i guess i wasnt. i just didnt KNOW what i was doing, and most of the people who do eat meat and consume fur and leather dont know what their really doing. is that their fault? to an extent yeah but for the most part i would say theyve just been conditioned and brainwashed... of course there are exceptions, like jennifer lopez or the ceo of wet seal or slutter mcgee(lolol sorry i had to add you in there), those people are just cruel and fucked up...

    Sorry, but this is the classic conservative answer.

    You never break out of the molds, do you? :rolleyes:

    I really don't care about some little furry creatures so long as they are not endangered. In some countries it's a matter of survival and it sure was for the ancestors of modern Europeans.

    In my view, animals should not have the rights that humans have, because they cannot reason and live largely by instinct and conditioning. All too often people attribute human qualities to lower animals.

    I say if you can afford the fur and you feel good in it, why not? It's not something I would do, but I don't see the big deal.

    I eat burgers all of the time. Why not protest in front of McDonald's, to encourage people to switch to vegetarian diets as well?

    seek out an earthworm the next time you are on LSD, and tell me it doesnt have feelings or isnt just as much alive or worthy as you are. its a HAAAARSH fuckin reality to watch something else suffer THAT much if your trippin or fasting or just there and paying close attention. it has vibrations just as equal to yours if you open your eyes. try visiting a factory farm trippin balls, that would be some fuuuuucked up shit. bet your ass you would never look at any animal product the same way ever again. c'monn now, i could MAYBE understand you sayin that plants and maybe even trees dont have feelings if im cutting you slack, but animals!?!? we all breathe the same air man, just the way all plants breathe the same carbon dioxide we breathe out, we couldnt live without each other.

    you know food is another thing that alters perception much more intensely than you think i bet(wonder why that might be?), and yours is obviously altered, not to say many vegetarians arent either, but i totally accept the idea that they think clearer when they change their diet and eat right, which didnt happen to me noticeably but i wasnt really payin attention at the time and wasnt eating as healthy as i could have been as a vegetarian. try fasting sometimes, its very similar to LSD, sharpens senses, raises awareness, trips you the fuck out and brings you to the realization that everything is god. sound familiar? its good experience, i promise, fast sometime, then try to break the fast with a fuckin burger. see how you feel then when your truely in tune, not lost in a blurry haze of illusion like soo many peoples are, includin myself. im not above you or anything or preaching superiority, im just rappin about how it is.

    its bad fuckin karma man, livin lost in attatchment and desire and selfishness, your responsible for your own act and once you know whats up you cant turn back. its like turning your back on god imo. you found a secret into this amaaaazing garden, and youve eaten the fruit, but you get to CHOSE to cast yourself out or not. i can understand people who dont know, and those i can forgive and i think god or whatever will too because its not essentially their fault, their brainwashed. but you know fuckin better than that. they dont, big difference, changes the whoooole ball game.

    its soul progression and true liberation, may sound funky but im a firm believer and i think its something you should seek out eventually. LSD is imperanent, eating right and detoxifying your body can stick with you for your life, and believe me it is JUST as spiritual. i been thinkin about goin raw vegan myself since i hear its much easier to transist in summer, and i inevitably will someday but at this point i dont feel im ready for such an intense change in my life. thats how intense it all REALLY is, food is just like drugs man, i shit you not. fuckin at 16, i would still have trouble eating TRUELY right. tryed to go raw veg(the ideal human diet and condition inmstrong opinion) after a niiiice fast, and my body is aching. thats how much toxicity is in our body, and even eating organic and chemical meat-free for a decent amount of time(at 16 years old i remind you), my body is still poisoned to hell, almost literally.you eat junk, you become junk. you eat greed and desire, you become it. the mind is very much apart of the body and you should treat them with more respect. its yourself your fuckin over if you dont, nobody else. and the animals and the earth, but thats yourself too. hope you dig on what im sayin, maybe fast sometime or get blazed and read it. god comes in many forms, this is the real one though. peace and much love.
