Is it wrong to wear fur?

Started by Sorgo5 pages

If I walk up to a Human, throw a net over him, throw him into a cage for a few months and then gas him with... Let's say... Argon and then skin him and start wearing his skin in the shape of a Coat-like essence, will I get in trouble for that? Yes.

But if I walk up to an Elk, Wolf, Chinchilla.... Whatever and then do what I did to the Human with a License to Fur trade and Fur expense, do I get in trouble for that? No.

Let's add the fact that Humans are Mammals.... Along with Elk, Wolf, Chinchilla, Foxes and Minks.

Apparently, it is coherently WRONG to kill a Human whether it be through Gas or killing live.... But doing that to an Animal with a License is so much more justified?

Some say Mammals should be killed because of their lack of intelligence compared to us humans.

Such f*cking arrogance, correct?

So... Something that eats, shits, pisses, feels pain, has sex and can have fun should be killed because they lack our intelligence level and because their fur "looks nice"?

Such f*cking Corruption, correct?

Some say they should be killed because all they do is "Run around a field their entire life" or because they "take up space and are useless".

You know, Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with their surrounding environment...

Except for Humans.

Us highly intelligent and USEFUL humans move to an area, almost perpetually multiply and then consume every resource in the area until it is drained (Including the "stupid and useless" mammals.)

And the only way we can survive? Spread to a new area and consume it's Resources.

Us highly intelligent and useful Humans seem to retain a purpose on this earth as a Virus-like species utilizing Animals and every other thing in our way for our own selfish essence and need.

Mammals? They eat, sleep and run around trying to have fun.

Yet they deserve to die for our own selfish need and personal comfort whether it be painless or not?

Death is f*cking scary! For us and Animals! It doesn't matter if it is painless! These f*cking Animals are taken from their families and are in complete isolation for the remainder of their lifes and killed! Most of the time, it's not even painless! Has anyone else here shared my view of some of the videos of Animals being hung upside down and ripped open while still alive?

NOTHING deserves death. Painless or Pain-filled.

Especially towards humans who spend their life trying to find things to their need only and everything revolving around them.

It is selfish, arrogant, cowardice and crude to crush an Animals life so you can be warm and comfy, especially when their is major alternatives to being Warm and comfy, including Faux Fur, Cotton, Polyester or anything else that means you wont be wearing a dead Animals skin on your arrogant little back.

I won't wear real fur. I don't like the idea of animals being killed just so people can have pretty looking coats.

Faux fur looks and feels the same, is cheaper, doesn't need to be taken care of, won't smell if it gets wet....and nothing died to make it.

I just noticed that something was moving in your signature! 😛

You're the second person to notice that 😂 😛

Indeed I was!

Though, either way, I don't really care if people want to wear fur. None of my business/concern.

fur is gross. ppl hu wear it are gross. if you wear fur you are a moose wannabe!!!

I thought this would be a good subject for the GDF. I wouldn't wear fur myself (being a man for a start!) and the anti fur campaigns rightly show the barbarism connected to the fur industry but surely wearing leather is just as bad as wearing fur? Is it OK to wear fur if it's not from an endangered animal which has been humanely put to sleep?

A being dying in the name of ''fashion'' is wrong, from my standpoint.

Uhmmm, yes, because that is murder.

What’s “Fur expense”? And it depends how you do it. Trappers or furriers (in Canada anyway) have specific codes of conduct, practices and quotas that they have to adhere to to maintain their licences. They do not just go about randomly killing anything they see to skin it. Most trappers also have a far better understand regarding nature than you will show in your entire post.

What is the relevancy of this point?

You do know that “coherently’ means Marked by an orderly, logical, and aesthetically consistent relation of parts, don’t you? That really doesn’t make sense what you are saying. And actually, there are circumstance under which killing another human would be considered wrong, much like if you were talking to a trapper or a person who spends a lot of time in nature would tell you that there are times that killing an animal is acceptable, and other times it’s just wrong.

Who says this? Really, I’d love to see who says this and upon who’s behalf they said it.

Once again what kind of logic is this? Where are you getting this from?

Where are you getting this sh*t? Are you basing your entire argument on stuff that you have made up, or do you know some half-baked retarded crackhead who sits on his porch and spews this stuff?

Yes, and you are guilty of that just by the very nature of your consumption. Do you drive a car? Do you use paper? Do you ever through anything out? What do you do for the environment around you?

If you feel that passionate about the plague of humanity, what are you doing to counter it?

O.K., Someone’s been watching too many Disney films. Live in the wild is f*cking ruthless. Very few animals die of old age. They die of starvation, massive trauma from accidents, being killed and consumed by others, freezing to death, drowning, etc. Deer are not prancing together in a meadow joyously celebrating the fact that they are together and loving life. They hear up to keep as many eyes on the lookout for danger that is a part of every moment of their lives. By anthropomorphising these creatures you are doing them a great disservice and showing them a great deal of disrespect along with exposing what seems to be a general lack of knowledge concerning their existence.

Yes, I have heard many hunters and trappers relish in the fact that animals DESERVE to die. Where are you getting this crap? Do you read a lot of PETA pamphlets? Because you are beginning to sound as irrational as they sound.

O.k. first of all there you go anthropomorphising. Most animals do not live in family groups or form emotional bonds. Some do yes, but for most, emotional bonds would severely limit their motivation for self preservation. Secondly, who’s endorsing ripping animals open while they are still alive? What you are doing is grandstanding and making obvious points partied up with silly rhetoric and misinformation.

Yet everything dies. More often than not painfully everything dies painfully, and in the wild, often horrifically.

Whoah there my friend, you have rambled on without any apparent knowledge or grasp of reality in an overbearing manner thinking your stream of inconstant thought is superior to that of others, that by it’s very definition is arrogant. Are there disturbing practices in the fur industry? Yes, of course. Do all those who participate in the fur industry, hunting or eating of animals do so purely with evilness and selfishness in mind hoping to wipe out all animal life as we know it because they deserve it? Not likely.

Like I said I love the feel of fur, but wouldn't just go out and buy it...If however, the meat was used then I wouldn't have a problem using the fur...I'd love to have a bear skin rug....

That's only because you're a minx.

Kharma, thank you for taking the time to actually respond to the retard's post. I was going to do so, but more in a fashion of "You're an idiot, go away".

I think you're a little confused.

Minx is a term for a flirtatious girl.

Mink is an animal that's fur is used for coats.

Son of a...

I cannot believe that I just did that.

*Bangs his head against the wall.*

Um...you're a MINKS.

I was going to respond in that manner also, but I just had to put in my 2 cents...actually I gues it was more like my 25 cents.

O.K. how about vixen?

Shrew.

So many creature names or words have a quality attached.

Badger; colt; weasel; cat; dog; vulture; worm; mole; wasp.

There are others of course.

So, in conclusion, fur is bad.

Unfortuneatly, this post exemplifies a common pattern of knowledge expressed on KMC

Toy stores carry little kitties (toys) with real rabbit, cat, and other animals fur on them...It's kinda creepy...

It's freaked some kids out, and won't buy them.

That is fairly creepy.

Uhmmm, yes, because that is murder.

And slaughtering an Animal is not? Humans are Mammals and most of the Animals used for fur or food happen to be Mammals. A Human cannot kill another Human, but they can kill a defenseless Animal that honestly never did anything to them?

Wowzers!

What’s “Fur expense”? And it depends how you do it. Trappers or furriers (in Canada anyway) have specific codes of conduct, practices and quotas that they have to adhere to to maintain their licences. They do not just go about randomly killing anything they see to skin it. Most trappers also have a far better understand regarding nature than you will show in your entire post.

I am sure they do. Which is why they arrange and set up the death of these Animals or kill them.

You do know that “coherently’ means Marked by an orderly, logical, and aesthetically consistent relation of parts, don’t you? That really doesn’t make sense what you are saying. And actually, there are circumstance under which killing another human would be considered wrong, much like if you were talking to a trapper or a person who spends a lot of time in nature would tell you that there are times that killing an animal is acceptable, and other times it’s just wrong.

Whoa! Funny, your definition of "Coherently" is the EXACT same words from Dictionary.com. EXACT same words. Damn, I can copy and paste as well!

No. Killing an Animal in self defense is perfectly understandable. But trapping them for fur, hunting them and killing them for eating and/or for fur is WRONG! They do not deserve to die! None of them!

Who says this? Really, I’d love to see who says this and upon who’s behalf they said it.

Once again what kind of logic is this? Where are you getting this from?

Where are you getting this sh*t? Are you basing your entire argument on stuff that you have made up, or do you know some half-baked retarded crackhead who sits on his porch and spews this stuff?

People DO believe this kind of stuff. I have seen this arrogance before when I have brought up the subject to some friends and these are some of their responses. And just because my friends choose to share an opinion with me that I disagree with doesn't make them "Crackheads". Don't make silly assumptions.

Yes, and you are guilty of that just by the very nature of your consumption. Do you drive a car? Do you use paper? Do you ever through anything out? What do you do for the environment around you?

I drive a Hybrid, I don't need paper (Use it occasionally) and I Recycle but I often throw things away, yes.

Murdering Animals is a differential subject than these things.

I do quite the bit for my environment, thanks.

And what the hell do you do? Eat meat, Drive a Car, write things down, throw away leftover meat and waltz around in your coat?

Please. Considering I am a Vegetarian, Drive a Hybrid, recycle what I can and actually get off my f*cking ass to help...

..Well, it's doing more than what you're doing.

O.K., Someone’s been watching too many Disney films. Live in the wild is f*cking ruthless. Very few animals die of old age.

By anthropomorphising these creatures you are doing them a great disservice and showing them a great deal of disrespect along with exposing what seems to be a general lack of knowledge concerning their existence.

I show them disrespect, yet I am not the one who agrees with their death or encourages it. Awkward? Indeed.

Animals still deserve to roam freely and do as they please instead of rotting in some small ass cage and getting slaughtered alive.... Or getting "peacefully" gassed as their lives are stripped from them.

What the hell did they do to you to deserve for you to kill them? Did *YOU* just decide you wanted to eat some of them? Or wear their skin? You don't have that right, and when you wear them or eat them, you're contributing to their ruthless and undeserved death.

Damn, I wish I could sit down and enjoy a burnt rotten piece of Animal muscle and still reach the ability to sleep at night.

Yes, I have heard many hunters and trappers relish in the fact that animals DESERVE to die. Where are you getting this crap? Do you read a lot of PETA pamphlets? Because you are beginning to sound as irrational as they sound.

Not at all. Yet Another "Silly" Assumption. Killing an Animal just isn't right, Licence or no.

It is not right to kill an Animal under ANY circumstance except for self-defense.

O.k. first of all there you go anthropomorphising. Most animals do not live in family groups or form emotional bonds. Some do yes, but for most, emotional bonds would severely limit their motivation for self preservation. Secondly, who’s endorsing ripping animals open while they are still alive? What you are doing is grandstanding and making obvious points partied up with silly rhetoric and misinformation.

Yet everything dies. More often than not painfully everything dies painfully, and in the wild, often horrifically.

This doesn’t make sense to me.

Getting ripped open isn't horrific? I don't understand? Or gassing and animal and taking their life away so you can be warm is not horrific? Wow, some Logic you got going on for you.

NOT EVERY ANIMAL DIES IN THE WILD.

Neither do most of them.

Oh I see... So, since they die we get the right to come up and do it anyways, because they might die to another Animal? Oh I see....

That's bloody retard logic.

Whoah there my friend, you have rambled on without any apparent knowledge or grasp of reality in an overbearing manner thinking your stream of inconstant thought is superior to that of others, that by it’s very definition is arrogant.

Do all those who participate in the fur industry, hunting or eating of animals do so purely with evilness and selfishness in mind hoping to wipe out all animal life as we know it because they deserve it? Not likely.

No one said they did. You're calling me Arrogant? I smell Hypocrisy. Killing an Animal in a torturous way is horrible, but killing an Animal period is disgusting. Nothing deserves to die and just because the Animal may die in the wild doesn't mean we get to kill it just because we assume it will be killed savagely by another animal. That's just absurd.

And please: The Irrelevant Semantics you're using? Getting a bit too ridiculous now. Nobody rambled, except for you spitting Pseudo bullshit assumptions all over me like some rabid dog who's having a Seizure.

Yes. Basically, a license to kill Animals. It just it isn't right.

Mmm, this talk about animals death makes me want to eat a big, juicy cheesburger with bacon on it.
