WARNING: Big huge long rant coming up. Don't complain that it's too long or "Wah wah wah, why did you write all of this?!" YOU DON'T HAVE TO READ IT. It's your choice, so it's your fault. ALSO: If you want to discuss/debate/argue with any of my points, THEN READ MY DAMNED RANT FIRST SO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DEALING WITH. Fuck. I hate it when people don't read shit they want to argue against! So anyway...
I have no idea why, but I started to look up deviations that had to do with animal cruelty and anti-fur. I am very much against animal cruelty, ESPECIALLY fur. God. I just cannot STAND IT.
I mean, seriously. Animals were made, evolutionized, whatever, with fur. And humans? UM DUR. We were NOT, as a final product of homo sapien, made, evolutionized, whatever, with fur. WE ARE FURLESS. So um...that's how we should STAY.
Now you Bible-toting-people might argue that "BUT GOD GAVE US TEH AMINALS FOR US TO USE!!11". Yeah. He did. But he also said to FLIPPIN' TAKE CARE OF THEM. And um, we aren't really doing that now are we? Is stuffing them into little cages without shelter from the elements, lack of nutrition and veterianary care considered care by most people? Um. No. It's not. Because it's not. Period.
Back in the days of old, when we didn't HAVE the technology we do now, including cages and metal traps with which to catch prey, yeah, we wore fur. Indians wore fur. Everyone did. But people back then CAUGHT their own animals and then KILLED them. They didn't throw them in a cage to rot, then kill them. No. The animals got to live their lives in the freedom of the wild. Then they were caught and killed on the spot (hopefully). And the cool thing about the Indians was they used the entire animal. And if not the entire thing, as much as they could. Which is fucking AWESOME.
And do other animals pen up their prey? Do wolves go out, herd up deer and shove them into cages with no shelter or food, just to use them after they have been crippled and denied anything for food, experimentation, fur, anything? NO. Animals don't do that. So what fucking right do we have?
"BUT ANIMALS EAT OTHER ANIMALS AND STUFF." Yeah. They do. But like I said before: they don't fucking pen them up like humans do. And animals do NOT use other animals for: entertainment, fur, experimentation, etc. Only PEOPLE do.
And as for fur...GOD I HATE IT. I cannot tolerate it. You can be the nicest person in the world, but if you wear fur I will still have some lack of passion for you. I just cannot take it. It's not right.
FOR CHRIST'S SAKE. Most of us that go on dA live in a FIRST WORLD COUNTRY. We do NOT need fur in a first world country, ESPECIALLY in the United States. We have OTHER materials with which to make clothing, that is more convinient and less expensive then throwing a bunch of raccoons and foxes into little cages to fester away. And obviously, if we can have such things as plumping, computers, electricity, etc, we can afford to NOT HAVE FUR.
And that goes for other first world countries like friggin' England. They have other materials with which to make clothing as well. They don't NEED fur. We do NOT NEED FUR.
The only places I feel that fur should be used in are places like Russia. Places that are SO friggin' cold and that aren't first world. They (normally) have no other means. And the winters in places like that can get so brutal. It's ridiculous. But they can STILL keep their animals in nice conditions. Let them free range and be live a somewhat decent life before killing them.
"BUT FUR IS FASHIONABLE!!" Yes. I LOVE the thought of wearing dead animals on me. Something that was once pumping blood, something that once had working pores that sweated and helped to trap in heat for a living, breathing, heart-pumping thing. Yeah. I love those sexy eye sockets where those moving orbs used to be to help an animal see. I also like seeing those dangling paws that the animals used to walk on. And those big fluffy tails! Just think, maybe that fox was keeping her BABIES warm! Yeah, that's SO FASHIONABLE. (If you couldn't tell, that was ALL sarcasm.)
"BT WEE R TEH HUMN & TEY R TEH AMINL. WEE HAV RYT 2 KIL DEM!!11ONE" Um. No. Please. Go shoot yourself.
Zomg. Icen, I have a whole new found respect for you. Sounds like everything I had been debating with people for the longest time in my school. [ I go to a top knotch school where most students are rather... loaded. ] Most of the girls wear furr on a daily basis. Then I was on dA looking around and a friend of mine, posted a link in her journal about Animal cruelty. And it was a home movie of these poor raccoon looking creatures being pulled from their cages, beaten with clubs, and then thrown on the ground head first repeatily. And as one was being beat, you could see the others around it, having siezures and convulsions due to the severe head trauma of having their skull smashed on the ground. Then I watched them skin it alive. YES ALIVE. THEY DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH GOD DAMN FUCKING CURTISY TO PUT IT OUT OF ITS MISERY BEFORE THEY SLOWLY SKINNED IT ALIVE!!!
I know you have seen my one deviation about Fox, Rabbit, and Mink furr being ADVERTISED right here on dA. And I know you have heard this rant from me once before. But I just hope, some body reads this, and starts being ACTIVE about saving creatures from this same fate, some where in the future. Because if I had written this about HUMANS being penned up in cages and slowly tortured, I'm sure people would pay more attention. Pft.
And again, Icen, I respect you so much more then any other human being right now, because what you just did was amazing work, and a great rant to support Animal Rights.
And I'm sorry this is so long.

I totally agree with you... it makes me so fuckin angry when I see fur on someone, escpecially when it's for fashion and the person wears it for one day then throws it away! I could kill those people who treat animals like that and then use up their fur and make some stupid fashoin clothing out of it...
not so long ago I found a poster here in my town which had a cute fox baby on it and the text said: "do you have a fur coat? my mommy gave her life for it"
sorry for this sensless writing but this pic really shows people that they sould just die and leave animals alone

Nah, this wasn't too long at all! It's very muchly appreciated!
I've gotten into huge debates myself with people about fur. I live in a place where the kids are loaded, but they don't wear fur. They wear things that say "Juicy" on their asses and ridiculous stuff like that. I think though, that most of the kids would find fur wrong. Though they may not be the brightest, I think they can tell when animals are being wrongly used for something completely useless.
I've seen stuff like that (with the raccoons). Mostly on the PETA website(s). It's so awful. And what sucks is it's still happening. In a place like the USA. I mean c'mon people, humans can use cotton and other shit for warmth! Plus it's way too out of style and just ridiculous to wear.
