Alot of animals are killed for their fur, but I think the way they treat them is sick, too.
Genesis 9:3
What's wrong with fur? Animals wear it. Why can't we? There is a place for animals. It's right between the mashed potatoes and vegetables.
absolutely right. the only countries that could compete with China in human rights abuses are N. Korea and Cuba. My boss (this past summer) was from Cuba. He told me some horror stories.
For instance, every STREET had a Party house. But not like the local frat house where ya go to "party" it up every weekend. Basically, the Party house was inhabited by that street's representative. However, he did not represent the neighbors, but Castro. And his only job was to walk around the street during the day and promote Castro's image. If anyone said anything in disagreement, the rep would hear about it. My boss said that it was not uncommon for a friend's father to disappear in the middle of the night, often never heard from again.
that's just one of the fairytales he told me from his life in Cuba.
OF course, he doens't mind a bit that political prisoners are killed for their organs.
They're just people, after all.
Oh yes - might I also add...
Proverbs Ch.12:10
A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast: but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.
"Don't make it too obvious but I wanna see fur, and early morning dew."
Of course that the Chinese authorities torture people to death for their religious beliefs ain't so bad -- but being mean to a dog -- that's over the line.
I remember back in the 70's or 80's some dog and cat fur was found in the US and was immediately banned. I don't remember how it got here, but it was being passed off as something else.
Anyway, there are humane was to kill animals. Why does China have to be so brutal about everything?!
The Fab Four = George Martin + 4 FLUNKIES!
Anyone who can't tell the difference between rabbit and dog or cat fur needs to get out more.
A while back I watched a fascinating show on food in China. There were housecats in cages and snakes in pits with metal covers. Also rats, rabbits and dogs. All at the food market.
The images from that show haunt me to this day. I am not a vegan, so I have no problem with them eating whatever floats their boat. However, if animals are going to be slaughtered for food or fur/skin/leather whatever, let's try to do it in the most humane way possible.
On the plus side, all this activity is keeping Paulie from recording another one of his unlistenable albums.
Gotta wonder how outraged McCartney is about forced abortions and other human rights abuses in China.
Fur is warm. Synthetics cannot match the warmth. I don't know why; they just can't. We just need to be sure we are raising and killing them humanely.
