"Animals are skinned alive in China, because it's cheaper than to kill them humanely," said Ingrid Newkirk, president of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, opening her eyes as she shivered in a black cardboard coffin, with a cold wind blowing the rain through the square.

Assuming that's true, I've got a problem with it and the problems big enough to prevent me buying any sort of animal-ingredient product coming from China.

I don't buy anything coming from China if I can help it. Pass the word, it isn't cool.

Then shouldn't they be getting their naked butts to China to protest???? I doubt this anyway, as skinning a live animal seems problematic.

"Assuming that's true..."

That's making a BIG assumption there. After all, the "e" in PeTA isn't a typo - these bozoids shed their ethics with their clothes.

Is someone from PeTA says the sun will rise in the east tomorrow morning, better get up to check on it in the morning.

Her body painted a deathly gray and strewn with flowers, she lay under a sign that read: "Fur is Dead."

Does this mean she shaves?

Sorry, it's getting late...............
