This is a fucked up disturbing video. If you still shop at J.Crew after this...

I made it through about 30 seconds...

really. save the cats, save the dogs, save the whales: i say nuke em all til they glow for jehova...


SAVE THE FRIGGIN HUMANS! Boo hoo, pussin boots got the short end. We shop at stores, the GAP, NIKE, AMERICAN EAGLE, URBAN OUTFITTERS... etc etc that use child labor in appalling conditions that are just about as forgiving as Guyanan Prison Camps.

I am not really suggesting its ok to kill cats for... well, maybe cats I am cool with... but my point is that our outrage is so diluted that the things we should make empowered, concerted consumer boycotts of go by the way side. I would be SHOCKED if more than maybe one person on this board maintained their outrage over this for more than five minutes.

Please. Prove me wrong. And shop with a conscience? maybe... but not likely.

Should animals be treated more humanely? Yes. Do I have a problem with wearing fur, eating meat, etc.? NO

J.Crew makes there clothes in countries where dog & cat are eaten. Hence, using dog & cat fur is seen as the norm. Also, it is cheap for business. If they were using mink, would people cry. Would a thread have been created? (Oh, and BTW, Yes, I am a Republican).

No one complains about the animals used in laboratories to test medicine that will benefit them. How come one animal is cried for and others aren't?

You can't have it both ways. You can't get on your soapbox and cry for the dogs & cats and then wear your leather coat to work. Don't cry for the cat's & dogs and go ooohh and ahhh over Diamonds that some 12 y,o. boy was maimed for because he didn't work fast enough at some mine in Sierra Leone. Don't cry for the cats & dogs and walk by a homeless person and not give them a few dollars. Don't cry for the cats & dogs and go I love that Ivory (whatever) and not shed a tear for the elephants poached in Africa.

Ummmm - yeah - I'm just as disgusted by the minks & the chinchillas as I am with the dogs & cats being marketed for fur. While it's part of China's culture to eat dogs & cats & wear their fur - it's illegal to export said fur into the US & sell it under fraudulent circumstances - which does happen.

While I eat meat - I don't have a problem having a problem with the fur industry while still eating meat as I see a difference between the 2. That being said - there is no reason to treat animals (regardless of their use) cruelly & inhumanely. Also - production animals such as cows are 100% used - 'cept for the moo. ALL PARTS of the cow are used to make soap, shampoos, toothbrushes, coats, steaks, etc........nothing is wasted.

The fur industry is wasteful as the animals are not used for anything else OTHER than their fur AND there are many alternatives to fur. It's simply not necessary for someone who works in middle management, say, in New Jersey to wear a fur coat for the 50 yards they walk between their SUV & their office building. Now if they lived in a ten in the middle of Siberia - then I'd say they might need a fur coat to stay warm. Plus, the animals harvested for fur are treated cruelly and inhumanely.

Being on the top of the food chain as we are - we have a responsibility to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves.

Fuck the humans, they are the ones ruining this world.

When I was 10, I used to shoot neighbourhood dogs and cats with a BB gun. I thought it was hilarious. I can still remember them squealing. HAHHAHAHHAHAAA!

 

[Deterass]

That does not mean I like cruelty towards animals, I don´t feel a need for it. However I don´t oppose it either.

I didn´t see what was so shocking about that video.

Get over it. There is more important stuff to attend to.

.

Fuck you.

I don't think people are aware how much of our lives are dependent upon things that result in the death or "cruel" treatment of animals. Whether it is here or outside of the States.

I would bet a paycheck that if the people that get on their animal rights soapboxes got sick and the ONLY way to heal them was with medication invented by a company that treats their test monkeys, test cats, & lab rats, etc. cruelly, they would take that medicine and would careless about those animals. The funny thing is once healed, they would then form a protest against the company.

That said, I'm going out on a lunch date tomorrow. I will ask the manager of the restaurant to numb my lobster to sleep via a 5 minute rest in the fridge and take off the rubber bands so it can feel free like it did in the sea before the chef drops it in 212 degree water.
