  SHOCKING China Fur Investigation Video
In today’s environment, Gore-Tex and Polypropylene which can keep us warm even in the poles are widely available. Why is fur necessary? What? Your want to look elegant, your want to show off your wealth? Tell me what can justify this immense suffering. Take a look at this PETA Asia’s undercover investigation video http://www.petaasiapacific.com/FeatureChinaFurInvestigation2010.asp?c=papforpro
which shows nakedly how Chinese farmers brutally hit and kicked raccoons and broke a rabbit’s neck and skinned them alive!!!!

These animals, like us, have the capacity to experience life and desire, and consciousness. They should not be tortured like this! Animal’s right to life and be free from unnecessary pain trumps human’s interest in just looking better in fur.

 And it's important to add that this happens not just in the fur industry, but every industry that exploits animals.

 Absolutely... I will admit that reading about the fur trade got me into animal rights. But it wasn't long at all before I started to see the hypocrisy of my position on other animal issues. It can be so, so hard to break through that programming... and I'm very grateful to my cat, Misty, because without her I wouldn't be here. She totally changed my view of animals.

Very Happy

 Sorry Teddy bear but there are degrees of exploitation and I completely reject what I see (though I may be wrong) of your seeking to render all animal exploitation equally evil.

This behavior needs the perpetrators shot and their heads nailed to the walls of their home towns to terrify others into abandoning this evil practice.users of these furs should be terrorised,screamed at in the streets,spat on and abused.

there is a time for waffling and a time for action and this is a time for action.Shame on those of you who ignore such evil.

Ok, I did say every industry that exploits animals. But there certainly are industries that exploit animals in the same shocking ways like the Chinese. Gail Eisnitz's Slaughterhouse shows how those same cruelties occur in domestic slaughterhouses. So why not spit at and abuse our family members who eat steak?

And let's not become aggressive towards old women who wear fur just because they are the most vulnerable population.

 And let's not forget the animals who are burnt, shocked, poisoned, etc. in order to test chemicals that most people walking down the street use.
