Lindsay Turns Anti-Fur: What’s Your Take on The Fur Debate?

No stranger to wearing fur, Lindsay Lohan was about to be named to PETA’s upcoming worst-dressed list. But a PETA spokesperon tells us that the actress seems to have had a change of heart after seeing the organization’s anti-fur window displays at Topshop in London. During her whirlwind week there — which included the Casino Royale after party and hosting the World Music Awards — she was seen wearing a white fake fur jacket and an anti-fur button on her hat. While PETA tells us that Paris Hilton and other celebs have sworn off fur, Jennifer Lopez and other stars have recently been spotted in fur-trimmed jackets. Tell us: Where do you stand on the fur debate? Would you wear it?

I’ll proudly wear fur, and I defy anyone to toss paint on it! In fact, I’ll welcome it because then I can have you arrested and sued for assault, reckless endangerment, and myriad of other charges. Won’t you help me get my payday?

If you protest fur yet eat meat, or are a vegetarian who kills spiders, or a pro-lifer who favors the death penalty… you are a hypocrite. Life is life, right? What makes a mink more valuable than a chicken, or a roach?

It’s my money, and I’ll spend it where I want to.

I’m a vegetarian and do not wear fur or leather. I do not think humans have the right to take another animal’s life because we are “smarter” than them. If anything, our brains should cause us to realize that this is a cruel, barbaric thing to do. We make horror movies over people making clothes out of human flesh, how is this any different?

Learn the truth for yourself ladies, if you dare. YOu want to make fun of PETA, but do you have the guts to watch video footage of your lovely fur coat? They are dogs and cats being skinned alive in China so that you can look “pretty”. Pretty superficial. Educate yourselves ladies.

Mary–

If you don’t believe in torturing animals, then you don’t believe in fur–because I can assure you it is torturous for an animal to be skinned alive. I choose to believe that God put animals on this earth to help balance the ecosystem, to aid humans in agriculture and to be our friends. Your views are evil and scary.

Anyone who would wear fur should take a good look at what they consider humane, fur is an evil by-product of people with too much money and ego. Maybe 1000 years ago it was the only option to stay warm, but what makes humans different is our ability to adapt and find new ways to live in harmony with the environment and it’s creatures. Not continue to hurt and harm anything innocent in the world.

BDAYGURL, I truly feel bad for you, and anyone else that is uneducated or ignorant enough to wear fur. Do you have any idea of what happens to those animals when they are being skinned (half of them still alive)? They are dogs and cats, ladies. Please, before you make a stand on wearing fur, learn the facts first.

This is not about meat, of course we are omnivours, and neet to eat meat, but this is about CRUELTY for fashion. Why not wear something CRUELTY FREE? Why would you consiously wear fur knowing that you can wear faux fur, and look great, without blood on your hands? PLEASE learn the truth. I BEG YOU. http://www.petatv.com/tvpopup/Prefs.asp?video=fur_farm

Wearing fur is atrocious and sick. How would you like it if somebody skinned one of your family members and wore them as a coat?
