LOS ANGELES (AP) --
A retailer of hip fashions for young women has responded to a nationwide boycott called by an animal rights group by agreeing to remove clothes with rabbit fur from its stores and pledging not to sell any real fur in the future.
The clothing chain Forever 21 became the target of protests last month after the group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals said the company ignored requests to stop selling rabbit fur.
PETA said it would next target Wet Seal Inc., a Forever 21 competitor.

Hmmmmmm. I wonder how many people from PETA wear leather shoes, leather belts and of course leather brief cases and pocket books?
To: SmithL
If animal hides wern't meant to be worn all animals would have been made bald!

I have a leather coat too. HAHAHAHAHA.... and weather leather shoes and have a leather belt. I am No. 1 speciesist on PETA's animal rights violator blacklist - and proud of it.

Without animal products, we'd freeze, starve, and be deprived of lifesaving medical goods.
