The furor over fur

Fur is Murder. But oh so cool looking on my floor., originally uploaded by Michael Saffle.

Do you like fur products? Leather coats, shoes, purses and the like? I do but my friend Michelle doesn't. She doesn't eat meat and she doesn't like fur. There are a lot of people who agree with her in America but they are still in the minority. I think that if an animal is going to be eaten, we should use all the parts we can. Like the American Indians.

I agree with some points, that fur coats that are made from an animal that is only raised to be slaughtered for a jacket is not very good. Mink and fox coats are targeted by anti-fur advocates.

The picture is of Michelle at Ikea where they were selling these fur rugs. I thought they were cool but Michelle wouldn't let me buy one!
