Does skinning them alive make the fur more sturdy or something? What's the point of hitting them so hard but not killing them? I mean then they have to hit them again while skinning. That's so inefficient.

All that aside, this video seems to be scripted me thinks. I mean if I had that kinda job I wouldn't step on the animals in a torturing way for no reason just like that guy did.

[Leonin Khan]

still its stupid..you just dont do stuff like that

[Sjakihata]

The video doenst play when I click the link

[Weebeast]

What? Torture.. I mean sacrificing a couple of animals and making a video just to persuade people to give sympathy and support? LOL

Anyway, yeah I don't squander resources. I will never wear fur for luxury. If I ever had to wear fur I had to survive. It's expensive anyway unless it's made in China lol. I heard they use 'urban' cat fur and pass them on as something else lol.

[Meneldil]

That's the common way of things in China and some other asian countries. Totally disgusting. Among other things, animals are drowned into boiling water, skinned alive, beaten to death and tortured in various ways.
I'm going to sound like some whiny european liberal, but people who do such things should be killed in a really painful way.

He shoots -- he scores!

Just like Ruth, a called shot exactly where he pointed.

Everyone who has a problem with this should shut up. This is age-old news. When this was posted on the metal forum for my city, everyone took sides from the apathetic to the hyper-sensitive, except a certain Chinese friend of mine who scolded all the hippies for developing their moral outrage. Have you guys ever been to China? How about the mountainous regions where this is happening and everyone is dirt-poor? This is how they survive. Do you really think they're going out of their way to make the animals suffer if they have to skin that many to get by?

[Just A Girl]

Yes im sure its cheaper to kill lots of animals, Skin them, Find a buyer, Then sell them,
Than it is to grow food.

[Papewaio]

I've seen plenty of possum skinning in NZ... and sheep and cattle. Every animal that I have seen skinned so far has been swiftly killed and then skinned... it is apparently a lot easier to do while they are both dead and not stiff.

[GoreBag]

Who says they're not food?

Pape, that much makes sense. How were the animals in question killed, though, and for what were the skins intended?

[Xiahou]

Im sure that's the case 99% of the time too. Just leave it to PETA to troll around and paint the absolute worst case scenarios they can find as the way everyone does it.

So what if China does it? Go pester them then.

[Meneldil]

Everyone who has a problem with this should shut up.

Yeah, too bad most of these animals aren't tortured for food-surviving, but for the good old - fairly useless - chinese medicine (using things like cats or pandas' testicles that supposeldy cure impotence), or for the western furs market.
Everyone who has no problem with this should be skinned alive.

Im sure that's the case 99% of the time too. Just leave it to PETA to troll around and paint the absolute worst case scenarios they can find as the way everyone does it.

The fact it only happens 1% of the time doesn't make it less horrible. Is that the same bush worshipers' 'We tortured only a few of them, so that's not too biggie, heh' argument ?

Furthermore, I don't think the video is criticizing countries like NZ, but rather China, Korea or Vietnam, where things like that are fairly common.
I'm not a PETA fan at all, but there's a difference between whining for something pretty pointless, and what you can see in these videos.
But heh, since it's PETA, they are either lying or making it up, heh
Go into a 5 millions inhabitants city in backward central China, and you'll see if they're making that up.

Where in this video were the dogs' testicles removed?

[Just A Girl]

If you think they need to torture and kill animals in order to survive, You have a screw loose.

I dont need to skin a cat to eat or sell its fur.
If i need food i can either Grow it. or buy it.
I find it easier to buy it.
But growing it is no problem either.

Rino-horn.
And tiger penis remidies exetera, Just take way from your argument.
So i thought id mention them.

Hows about whale's No 1s mentioned them..

Or shark fin's And how they catch a shark slash off there fins then just throw the shark back in to the water where it can drown in pain with no way to swim or feed.

Great!

Really though.
Il send you guy some seeds. if your that hard up.
Soon have a community full of tomatoes.
Go well with Rice.

il send you a few bags of potatoes.. Plant em. and more will grow.
Its decent weather in china.
So il send you all the orange and apple seeds i Have left after i eat some.

I think what the dude above trying to say is that the need they fur money to buy food.

[Papewaio]

Pape, that much makes sense. How were the animals in question killed, though, and for what were the skins intended?

Possums in Australia are an endangered species that may not be killed without getting in trouble.

Possums in New Zealand are an introduced species that kill native flora and fauna. As such they are killed for sport and their pelts are sold for use in a variety of clothes and other items.

I have seen the killed by shotguns, rifles and ones caught in traps a tyre iron to the head.

Oh, right! Those silly Mongoloids never developed STATIC AGRICULTURE. Are you listening to yourself?

Pape, that's an interesting point. I imagine the dogs here were being bludgeoned to death to avoid damaging the fur.

[solypsist]

ive seen this video - and it makes me sad on many levels.

[Just A Girl]

"Oh, right! Those silly Mongoloids never developed STATIC AGRICULTURE. Are you listening to yourself?"

Then if they have food.
You have no argument.

To survive you need to eat and drink.
were fully capable of surviving without needing to torture and skin animals for money.

Next thing youl be saying is They should be allowed to kill eliphants to sell there Ivory.

Its a one sided argument.
Money v's Life.
Life wins hands down. No contest.

[Papewaio]

Pamela Anderson is a PETA spokesperson... and she wears sheepskin boots...

So any man whose job isn't farming isn't...surviving? Is this what I'm supposed to draw from your argument?

[Just A Girl]

Yep In the simpelest form.
Is how the world was made.
You get some seeds...
Plant them in the soil. Watch them grow, They make more seeds. and you can eat the fruit. Or make bread excetera.
AND then you have seeds to plant some more. (AMAZING!)

Then we invented a whole Bunch of things to make this process even easier.
(You dont need anything apart from soil seeds and good weather though)
In time it became so 1 man could do the job of many on a farm With mechanized machinery to help.
This ment that 1 farmer could now Feed MANY people.
but he no longer had MANY workers to feed.

so more food was available, And less people were working the fields (so they wernt geting fed Failing to survive in its most basic fom).

This just ment markets had to be visited to Trade produce. or more recently to Purchase Produce.

There is nothing Stoping any 1 from Planting a few seeds here and there, and harvesting small crops for them selfs.
(Apart from greed that seems to drive the people to inhumane acts in the name of profit)

The fact that they torture animals, for fur is only the tip of the ice berg,
They torture all kinds animals for all types of reasons,
Sharks get it the worst.
With them slicing there fins off and throwing the shark back to drown.

It only takes a second to kill an animal with a bolt gun.
yet you say its easier to torture them like so.

There is No "We haft to torture these animals to survive" Argument.
Its a load of bull.

all done editing.

[GoreBag]

Uh...actually, the world wasn't made by farmers, and humans have been killing animals longer than they've had agriculture.

You gotta find a bolt gun before you could use it, provided that piercing the fur didn't drop its potential price anyway.

Unsurprisingly, you're not making any sense, and that's not just because you're entirely incoherent.

[Just A Girl]

And Thinking torturing Animals for fur is right Makes you respectable?.

Psssst...
They havent been Torturing animals for fur longer than theyve had agriculture.
You are the one who is making no sence.
"neolithic man would definatly kill an animal before trying to skin it, Just wouldnt be safe otherwize And i doubt hed kill Loads of em to sell them on"

Your wrong Simple as that.

Profit vs life = Life wins.

If you cant kill the animal humanley without damaging the fur...
Dont kill it for fur.

Same as. If you cant get the tusks off the eliphant without killing it.
Dont take the damn tusks off.

They dont need the money.
You can just plant food and live like that.

There are Ancient civilisations that were hugley advanced thousands of years before the egyptians started building anything, who had huge agricultural recources.

Evidence of them is fine. and well. just off the coast of india,

The place was flooded in the great flood.
Otherwize known as the end of the ice age.

So Agriculture has Been a Huge part of survival.

Torturing Animalls for fur, Is a inhumane And callas action.
and to do it soley for profit. is just plain wrong.
(inhumane killing of animals was never needed as a part of survival. So you lost that argument 2)

You have no argument other than,

There greedy money grabbers Who dont care How crule they are so long as they get a few £'s

And that is a useless argument.

And resorting to saying I am incoherent. Just proves your loss of this argument as you now change in to insults as you have no rational debate.

All done editing

[GoreBag]

It's hardly useless, hippie. It's how they live. Without being so cruel, callous, despicable subhumans, they'd die, and hey, better a bunch of dogs than me. My point about the agriculture was that if it was so much easier or more sensical, don't you think they'd have tried it already?

I'm not sure where you're going with that Indian argument, but my point remains. In fact, if prehistoric man had never begun to kill animals and eat their flesh, the human brain would never have developed enough for you to have the capacity to fathom such insane logic that maintains that morals are more important than survival.

[Just A Girl]

Your being silly.

Name me 1 other culture that has HAD to abandon agriculture and resort to torturning animals to buy food.??

Look at the size of britain.

AGRICULTURE...
And the mother of all colonies apears.
Your even speaking english now.

Thats AGRICULTURE for you.
Not torturing animals till your so backward that you are prety much a 3rd world country..

Countrys with agriculture as a back bone Are what survive.
Not animal torturing greed bags.

Whats the 1st thing you build In STW/ MTW/ or RTW?

I can guarantee its not the Cat skinning plant that brings in +10 florins a year.

Good, Britain is a good example. Do you remember around what the economy of the Highlands was? Certainly not agriculture, because the land was too poor. They tried anyway, of course, and it got nowhere. The big money up there was, you guessed it, animals. There's where the word 'black mail' comes from - a tribute to buy back your stolen cattle.

[Just A Girl]

Now you are trying to combine Animal farming and Inhumane animal Torture as 1 Process.
when you know there not.

To me that says
You have noticed you have lost this argument
And anything more from you will just be knee jerk reactions.

Ive already been called a Hippy, and incoherent By you due to your inabilay to debate this point and win.

Its is a shame.


One last word though.

If being crule to animals for their fur Is so much better than agriculture..
WTH happend to china.
And why isnt the Scots national Dress a Cat/dog skin cloak.

they do things wrong.
It dosent mean that becous they do it to survive it is right OR even accepatble.

Like i said.
You can plant food.
Not like they dont have enough rice and tea feilds to develop some of the feilds in to proper agricultural centers with diverse products.
and its not asif they have nothing but barren desert as land either.

If they Pulled there fingers out they could have HUGE agricultural resources.

Its easier for them to be babaric and uncivilized is all.
That does not make it right.
And it does not help your argument.

[GoreBag]

Now you are trying to combine Animal farming and Inhumane animal Torture as 1 Process.

It's one process to the people in the video.

To me that says
You have noticed you have lost this argument
And anything more from you will just be knee jerk reactions.

As if your silly moral outrage is less than that.

Ive already been called a Hippy, and incoherent By you due to your inabilay to debate this point and win.

You've been called a hippie and incoherent because I call it as I see it.

One last word though.

Rising superpower. You'd better teach your kids to murder animals like a savage and brush up on their Canto.
