Junell, I did not comment on this topic just to offend you but state the obvious and truth. It's not whether I eat meat or not, and quite frankly I don't eat meat nor wear fur so your statements are quite wrong. You speak in circles and yes people also murder, rape, steal, and lie for pleasure, personal gain, greed and selfishness.

Is it pleasure that is allowed to consume you? Is it RIGHT? NO. You want to sit here and pass judgement and talk about humans and dead babies. You have no course for an argument, so much that you have to take things from left field just to support it. We live in an idiocracy and you are so unbelievably ignorant.

You could careless where the things you purchase or endorse come from? So you would be fine with purchasing diamonds from Sierra Leone? Blood diamonds? People die because of them, there are wars, but you are telling me that doesn't matter.

So if I wanted to wear diamonds at the price of a person's life then I have the right to do it because I have enough money to do so? The same goes for animals. Just like the oppressed. Women, children and the minority have had to fight for their rights and have people who weren't in those categories fight and protect them. Who is protecting the animal's rights? It's surely not you. Quite frankly I would be ashamed.660 days ago

Junell, there are people in the world that want to oppress. Do you know they go to Alaska every year and hunt seals and baby seals? They bash them in their skulls and kill them. Thousands and thousands a year just for their pelts they send over to Europe to greedy designers who careless for where or how they are obtaining their resources for fashion.

It is a topic that causes many emotions, but you are commenting that people are only angry because they want to control a black woman. I think you are the real racist here. No one even made a comment about race except you.

You are missing the real enlightenment of this conversation. It isn't about bashing one person nor a black woman. Some of the brightest and most wonderful people in my life are black women. Cindy Crawford, Linda Evangalista, and Elizabeth Hurley are all white women that have posed for Blackglama.

I really wish you would stop overlooking the real issue. The issue is about cruel, uncompassionate and greedy people murdering innocent animals JUST to WEAR their FUR. So if someone killed your pet because they wanted to make it into a jacket then more power to them? Seriously. I think I'm done trying to open up your closed mind and thinking. It's because people like you we cannot transgress.661 days ago

Junell, this country was built on more than just the fur trade. This is one issue that should be abolished. I like how you bring the race card into this subject. The subject is not about empowered black women. It is about the treatment, abuse and slaughter of animals. Not only have animals been oppressed & murdered but humans have too.

Do you remember a little word called: slavery? Well, people had to fight against what they believed to be ethically immoral, unfair, and cruel. Killing something to wear it's fur is just as bad as hating someone for the color of their skin.

Do people have the freedom to wear fur? Yes. Do people have the freedom to dislike you because of the way you look? Yes. Is it right? Absolutely not. So please stop leaving ignorant comments and stop using the race card when it comes to topics that aren't even related. Ignorance is bliss isn't it?

In this day, there are plenty of faux and synthetic material that can be used in place of fur. We do not have to resort to barbaric practices. Fur is cruel. I did believe Janet had higher regard for animals. I never pegged her to be another Kelis. But people never stop to amaze. It definitely was a decision based on money. It's really sad to see people sell themselves for material items. It is disappointing and even if you could careless you know in your heart it is wrong.666 days ago
