Harvesting animals for fur and pelts has been, is, and will remain, legal - in the United States and the entire world.\
I love my Leather Car Seats, Leather shoes, Leather Motorcycle Jackets, Leather Saddles for our horses, etc.
So, your overly dramatic and totally unrealistic statements aside, those people, all over the world, who want to purchase and wear Leather and Fur are in NO DANGER whatsoever of being denied that RIGHT.
dont speak of the future like you're a prophet. you have no idea what will remain legal & you have no idea how the majority people will feel about anything next week let alone 5 years from now.
OBTW - Not that I've heard. But I guess if you're for abortion limitations, you must also be for limitations on where and how much fur is purchased.
Oh, Fur Farms! Gotcha. Not the wearing of fur though. Gotcha.
Yeah - in AZ (and other states), we not have a waiting period of 24 hours from a request for abortion before the procedure. In depth discussion about alternatives to abortion. And, if its a minor requesting the abortion, there now has to be parental / guardian consent.
As for fur - you kill the animal for mean - you get the hide - you get the fur.

If you have already killed the animal for meat, and have done so humanely, I can accept that.
I don't like it, but I can accept it.
Unfortunately, most of the world's fur is NOT obtained in the US, so the chances of a humane killing (if there is such a thing) are slim.
I, personally, will not wear any fur whatsoever.
A waiting period is not a terrible idea. What IS terrible is so-called "counselors" who try to indoctrinate any non-Christian into their Bible-beating views, and manipulate young women into making decisions under duress. Show me ONE place with a waiting period that does NOT do that.
Sorry, no got cable. You're going to have to put your money where your mouth is.
No problem. I post nothing I can't back up.
"England, Scotland, and Wales, have recently outlawed fur farms. During debates about fur farms in the United Kingdom in December 2000, government minister Elliot Morley stated:
" 'Fur farming is not consistent with the proper value and respect for animal life. This is a moral issue that goes beyond welfare considerations. In the 21st century, animals should not be killed just for the business of stripping their skins off their backs ... In a modern society there should be room for Government to make ethical decisions and it is right and proper for the Government to have introduced this ban.'"
