Even funnier, those animals wouldn't have existed in the first place otherwise
actually, most of them wouldn't have
huh?
think of the millions of chickens that would never have been born if not for the demand for their meat... so yes, you are correct when you say they never would have existed in the first place. I'm speaking of individual animals, not the species.
PETA isn't handing out these pamphlets willy-nilly, just to the kids of women who show up in furs. So it's not about eating chicken etc... even though thats another of PETA's pet peeves...

Oh. My "huh?" was because you said "actually" and then proceeded to state that I was, indeed, correct

That's supposed to make it better because?

better? what's wrong with it? wearing an animal like a fur is disgusting... people should be saying to those kids, "Hey your mommy is a ****ing *****!"
leather is different though... the cows are used for many more things.
You have to somehow justify wearing leather because you know you wear it, but you don't wear furs.

I remember in the news hearing that PETA compared the killing of chickens to the Holocost. PETA has crossed the line already and now I think most people think they are just a bunch of wackos. When you start comparing the killing of animals for food to gencide of humans that is way over the line. These people are idiots.

And to those kids who's moms are wearing fake furs as well - does anyone think they can (or will bother to) tell the difference?
The controversy is that their original targetted audience was any child, regardless of age. If some fvckwit handed my Sophie something like that, I'd give it back to him - orally.
--"Wouldn't that deer begin to stink, after a couple of years?"
I didn't say it was always the same deer.
Besides, you have no idea how cold it was up there. I remember one winter that hit -60 (and that's not counting wind-chill). Don't have to worry about rot at those temperatures.
--""Meat is justifiable murder.""
I've always liked the "If god didn't want us to eat animals, he wouldn't have made them so tasty" argument, myself.
--"Yeah, but did your mommy take a knife and kill all those animals like on the poster?"
Not if she wants to keep the fur. PETA, of course, wouldn't be familiar with the methods of skinning a carcas, but still. You'd think they'd have some idea of what they're complaining about.
Nah.
--"You have to somehow justify wearing leather because you know you wear it, but you don't wear furs."
See the tagline..
--"PETA has crossed the line already"
They crossed it years ago and kept going. Maybe they'll come around from the other side one of these days.

People are more violently opposed to fur than leather, because it's safer to harass rich women than motorcycle gangs.
