What's wrong with wearing fur?

my family and most of my friends think that i'm crazy that i'm vegan...
but i avoid everything that's coming from animals because i don't want them to suffer because of me....

My family don't understand either... They think that human needs meat when the body is 100% made to eat only vegetables --' And they don't realize how bad it is for the animals and the planet to kill them. They're ok to kill a cow but they can't understand somebody who kills dogs, cats, fox, etc... what's the difference ? They're animals with a heart and a brain like us... And seriously, have you ever seen a cow trying to kill anybody ? ^^ People are blind and stupid, they don't want to know the truth, but we both know

But it's respectful to raise them in battery farms to kill and eat them?

if u rly wanna wear real fur, get em at vintage stores. sometimes i wanna look like chewbacca but go for the faux fur. rofl

No I didn't say that was respectful, that's why I'm careful about where I buy meat from. I won't eat most fast food for that reason.

I don't know why it's considered okay to abuse the animals we eventually eat from, or why the fur trade continues.

Maybe I am just a very sensitive person.

... PETA will never learn.

I don't wear fur because I think it looks tacky. It's not my style at all. Even fake fur looks stupid to me, so I usually refrain from buying it (or if it's a jacket I make sure the fur is detachable). Deep down inside it might be a more complex issue that my brain is just simplifying.

so i will never wear fur.....
The last time i was wearing something made of leather was at army....only because i didn't have choice....
I think it's wrong to kill innocent animals.....
The fact that they can't speak and defend themselves doesn't mean we as humans have the right to kill them....

then why are you eating vegetables which is their food source?
