I really hate to side with PETA on something, but that is just disgusting. I'm not opposed to skinning animals, but let's keep it humane.

I do love how China tries to pawn it off on American and Europe:

"A Chinese official said boycotts were not justified, and blamed US and European consumers for buying the fur. "

Dang! He forgot to blame to Jews too! Oh well, maybe next time...

I so agree. China has so many atrocities along with human rights violations that the rest of the world possibly combined can't hold a handle to China's inhumane treatment. And our lovely(sarc) Hillary and Bill got into bed with these people. Well, Bill would slither into bed no matter who it was.

I agree I guess. But what is humane? Should we require they each be individually sedated before they are killed? and if we require animals killed for their skins be sedated, then how can we logically require any less for animals killed for their meat?

The problem with banning dog and cat fur is, why are dogs and cats special? I have two dogs that I love. One is sitting at my feet as I type, however, if we ban dog and cat fur, logically we should ban all types of animal fur. There really isn't much difference between a cat and a mink intellectually speaking. If we ban all animal fur then logically we should also ban meat and meat byproducts.

Is this what we want? It is obvious this is what Paul McCartney and his PETA buddies want, but we need to think about where this is all heading before blindly deciding based on emotion.
