        Subject: Designer Karl Lagerfeld Stop Using Fur – Vote Yes!

        Dear ARAN Members;

        Top international fashion house-‘Karl Lagerfeld’ seems to think it is perfectly ok to kill animals for their skins, at a time when there are  more faux alternatives out there — where you can get a killer look without actually killing!

        Please click here
        http://latimesblogs .latimes. com/unleashed/ 2009/01/designer -karl-l.html
        to read his ridiculous statement on the killing of animals for their ‘fur’  and once done take action and vote ‘Yes’ (on the same site) to support the vote to stop the  killing of animals for their skins as is used by the designer.

        The good news is that we are already winning this vote by a huge majority-but let’s try and get 100% of the vote swaying in favor of the animals-please be sure to forward this email far and wide and get everyone voting for animal rights!

        Fighting for Animal Rights,

        Animal Rights Action Network

        ‘Cruelty to animals must stop. FULL STOP.’

        PS, please send ARAN 

        a quick email to inform us of your vote so that we can keep track as to whom voted from our side, just hit reply and say yes or no!

          Thanks for posting this. I am EXTREMELY anti-fur and want to do all I can for those poor animals.

          How can people still think fur looks good? Maybe it had it’s uses in 10,000 BC but, um, you can buy clothes that haven’t been brutally slaughtered now.

            Puffy are you like me and you find it hard not to yell at little old ladies wearing fur?? It would be mean but I’m so inclined….

              I don’t yell at them but I do comment aloud! “Love that slaughtered animal that lady’s wearing, Looked better on the seal, etc…” Being old doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be compassionate. Although, I must admit, if it’s a younger woman I will comment much louder…

              The other day I was totally disgusted. A little girl, about 8, wearing a rabbit fur scarf!!! I said something very loud to my bf about what a great lesson that is to teach a child: Skinning a rabbit alive is okay to make a cute scarf.
