I think you misunderstood my point, I was trying to point out how killing only for fur is would leave a lot of waste.

It was an agrument against it sort of. I don't really see where you're going with this passage as it's obisously against using synthetic fur?

Fur is useless since you can have something identical without being cruel so it's pointless unless you're sadistic and enjoy seeing others suffer.

Again, it will be the last time I post on this, the animals used for fur do not neccessarily suffer more than any other animal used, so whatever the animals will be used for after their death shouldn't matter to them, it's a human issue, not animal rights issue as they no longer feel anything after death. And yes, there are different companies with such labels etc etc in the fur industry also.

AGAIN, I AM NOT PRO-TORTURING ANIMALS. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY: AS LONG AS THE ANIMALS ARE KILLED HUMANELY I DON'T SEE WHY THERE'S A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN KILLING FOR FUR OR WHATELSE, FROM AN ANIMALS POINT OF VIEW. THAT'S WHY I DON'T THINK IT'S ANY WORSE TO KILL FOR FUR THAN ANYTHING ELSE AS LONG AS ANIMAL'S RIGHS ARE OVERHELD.

THis was what I was trying to say all along, nothing else.
Of course you can argumen that the less animals killed by humans the better and so on, but no one really did. I do not supprot torture of animals of any kind, nor overconsume overall by humans, no matter if it's chickens or mink.
And if I had to be killed, I wouldn't really care what happened to me after I died, I would prefer not to die.
Fur Farming. Please do compare all you like to regular farming.
