Any people AGAINST animal killing?!
Any people AGAINST animal killing?
I am. I am a vegetarian and someday plan to be a vegan. Killing animals is wrong...especially for fur. You dont NEED fur to stay alive so why wear it? It's ugly and wayyy expensive. It's also sad to know how the animals are being killed...does anyone else feel the same way?

I don't have or wear fur although that doesn't bother me (what clothing did God provide Adam and Eve when they left the garden of Eden?), but I don't mind killing for food or research.
As a university student I was a research assistant helping to conduct research on Hypertension, a MAJOR factor in heart disease and death in humans. The research led to a new class of medications called ACE inhibitors and has improved the lives of millions of people with hypertension and heart disease. Without this research those people would be worse off and most of their lives shortened.....this is a medical fact. In addition to the research for hypertension, animal research has contributed great advances in the treatment of Diabetes another widespread killer of people from all walks of life.
These are merely two examples of the benefits of animal research......and the lives saved are worth it.
I would not kill an animal just to have it stuffed as a trophy, but I will kill for a purpose such as food or other uses.
i lov animals!!!
I'm not a vegitarian but I don't think it's right to kill. Sounds wrong I guess because a hamburger is one of my favourite foods. I don't wear fur because that's just wrong. I can do just as good with another material for winter. I could very easily become a vegitarian though.
yes, animals are intelligent and know when they are about to die, good for you on being vegetarian.
ME!
I understand some of your logic and love animals very much as well but also feel that animals are secondary to humans and should be respected by humans, but also feel they were put on this earth to provide for us as well. Meat provides nutrition which is much harder to provide with vegetables alone. Why does it taste so good? We all have some teeth for eating meat and plants just like some other animals. Milk and eggs are so valuable, nutritious and versatile in our lives I truly believe they were put on this earth for our use. Horses seem built for a human to use for transportation and work, before we had the technology for anything else. Dogs and Cats are very happy to provide companionship to humans and do their job well. In general human hunting is in some ways part of the food chain and when properly used provides a balance of animals. Furs and hides were very important in our needs before we had other means to provide clothing. Now you may have a point that we have developed other ways to provide for some of our needs and it may not be as important to use them. You are free to do as you like.
ROCK ON! I too was a meat eater, but after learning how the animals are treated, I simply could not do it. I have been veg for to years now, and the thought of eating a dead animal turns my stomach. There is a very disturbing video of how badly they are treated at peta.org. Not for the faint of heart. Congrats to you on being a veggie. We rule, dont we? Nothing screamed or bled or died for me to eat.
Killing animals is wrong, no matter what the circumstances. There are plenty of foods we can eat and get everything we need nutritionally, it just has to be planned out. Humans do not need fur to survive or we would have our own. Would you like it if someone liked your hair and wanted to scalp you? I didn't think so.
I may not be a vegetarian, but I do hate animal killings. if incase most animal population disapears, the world will be much more worse than you think.
with you all the way!!!!!!!!!!! I'm veggie now but I wasn't like a year ago and I don't miss the meat at all know, I used to love chicken, now I can't even stand the smell I will be vegan when i leave school, but it took my parents a lot to agree to me being veggie, let alone vegan, so I'll deal with that when I eave home.
fur = evil, must be stopped, including loads of other things. If you wanna help go to this site
www.careforthewild.com go on the take action part and there's plenty of cruel but very real horrible animal killings and torturings that you can help stop, sign the petition and help make our voices heard!!!!!!
good grief, good thing you didn't live 50 years back in time. killing animals for their pelts was just a part of life. People today have way to much time on there hand. Idea for you... Grow up and go to your local supermarket and buy a nice T-bone steak and cook it rare with a little bit of blood still visible.... Eat it and STFU
Save a animal... eat a PETA supporter
so am i. that's why i've been a vegetarian for about as far back as i can remember. i find fur and leather disgusting and cruel and hate animal testing. humans are wayyy too conceited for their own good.
Vegetarianism's not good for animals: for a start the meat industry is booming at the moment; secondly if enough people went veggie to actually affect the industry at all, and the demand for meat decreased, it would mean animals which were surplus to requirement. You're kidding yourself if you think that would mean they'd live happily ever after, as they couldn't be sold no one would want to keep them, and they'd still be slaughtered.
Think about it, the second farmers couldn't sell their livestock, the second they couldn't make a profit, they wouldn't keep them any more. Keeping animals isn't cheap, and to keep them, without profit, would be hugely expensive to any farmer. How many do you reckon would be prepared to make that kind of loss?
Now, what'd happen then? Maybe a few wild pigs or goats would stay alive, but for the most part it would be impossible to release them into the wild. The vast majority would have to be slaughtered.
I quote "If no one were allowed to farm animals, farms would grow crops instead. The first thing to go would be all the animals. Once the rural landscape were rid of cattle, sheep, and the like, fields would get larger, for the convenience of the combine harvesters, and hedgerows would go. Wild animals like rabbits would now be a more major pest. No farmer would want animals eating the plants, and so the war on such animals would intensify. Grown in the fields would be domesticate species of food crops, and so the number of plant species would decline."
Domestication is one of the best things that can happen to animals. If the golden eagle tasted any good you can bet your life it wouldn't be nearly extinct.
yea i agaree, in china animal trappers traps the animal and skinns it live, so it won't damage the fur, the freaking thing is skinned "ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" THEN they beat it to death
if i ever go to china, I'll have a talk to the animal trappers and fur companys
i am a meat eater, but that doesnt mean that it really pains me to know what is going on in slaughterhouses
and then when people waste meat like the way they do!
but personally i cant think that going veg is helping as much as what people want to believe it does, there is just way to many people eating meat, and the only way to make them stop is to completely ban the eating of meat, and i can see a lot of nasty protests comming out then.
there must be something else we can do?!
I agree 100%. Here is a good site to vist http://www.vegan.org
