Do people who eat meat have the right to complain about wearing fur. I find it funny that someone can take a stand against wearing animals but that person eats meat. What does everyone else think?

I guess they see eating meat as justifiable, because it's for the sake of survival...where killing for the furs only, isn't a necessity.

Because it's easy to produce fake fur, I think most people see killing animals for real fur/hides as an unnecessary and cruel extravagence. I don't think we then eat the meat of the animals we kill for fur either (although I could be wrong there) so as a meat eater, I see harvesting fur from aniamls whose carcasses would then be thrown away, to be quite wasteful.

In a country where people might depend on hides or fur of animals for warmth and comfort, it's okay with me.

I don't believe God intended us to be vegetarian; God was always encouraging someone or other in the Old Testament to sacrifice a lamb in his honour. Animals are not equal in rights to humans - I believe they are here to be of service to us, but that we should be thoughtful & humane in their treatment care and slaughter and not wasteful.

I agree with Linda and Sunandsurf...I eat meat but I would never wear fur. I'm not against wearing fur or anything, I just personally wouldn't do it. I think it looks terribly wrong and it's not something I'd wear...

I hope they do something with the leather that comes from cows and pigs that are eaten. It'd be a waste if the hide was just thrown out after the cow or pig was turned into steak and bacon. It would make no sense.

Meat is at least food and contains protein. (Although people probably consume more meat than they need to.)

But wearing animals, why? There are so many other choices for clothing. You certainly won't die without fur clothing. You won't even be inconvenienced.

Oh just fur?

Depending on what kind of fur I only see a practical application for it in extreme cold gear.

I eat meat and i have leather sofas and shoes. But i dont wear fur. The meat from seals, minx and rabbits culled for fur is not then used. They are culled for pelts.

Im not going to stand on the street and scream at anyone wearing fur. But personally I dont need a fur coat.

Products from domesticated animals I think is ok (meat, leather and certain furs) What I think is wrong and should be stopped totally is wild animals being killed just for their fur. I personally wouldn't buy any fur products but wouldn't lynch anyone if I saw them wearing fur.
