Since when do animal rights activists wear fake fur? Why would you want to pretend to support something you oppose? YDI
whats with the red liquids lately? well, PETA is a bit extreme, but they shouldn't be going around bombarding people with red liquids!

Serves you right for wearing fake animals. Next time wear the real thing so you'll at least deserve getting pelted with fake animal blood. :-D
PETA members are dicks.
Oh... All the things I would like to say, but I would waste so much space... All I can say is, don't overreact to something you have no clue about. Hypocracy.
the first comment is absolutely correct. WHY would you be wearing fur in the first place? If you don't support real fur, why are you wearing something which is REPRESENTATIVE or in lieu of it. In addition, how are the PETA members that saw you meant to know if it is real or not! -> its your own fault for wearing it. Your annoyance at having red liquid thrown at you is infuriating!! It wasnt a FML moment when you were targeted, it was a FML moment when an animals rights activist and vegan bought something with fake fur.

Why do vegetarians eat Boca Burgers?? Because it's tasty, and it's the easiest vegetarian item to find on most menus. Why would an animal rights activist wear faux fur? Because it's warm, it looks good, and has the benefit of allowing peace of mind since you know it's fake.
It only undermines your cause if you're a simple minded extremist, content to spill fake blood first and ask questions never.
I am a vegetarian animal rights activist who wears fake fur because it is soft. It's 100% synthetic, and looks nice, why should it bother me? I own synthetic leather shoes, too, because, again, it's not hurting anyone, and I like the way it looks. I'm opposed to the killing of innocent animals for fashion, not fashion itself. It's not hypocritical at all. If vegetarians had to stay away from anything that that was designed to resemble animals they would starve. Get over it
A lot of faux-fur is actually real fur. They use fur because it's cheaper. Specifically, dog fur from China.
if you can figure out who did it, take them to small claims court and get your money

Another red liquid FML...someone wants attention apparently and can't be creative with it?
Peta are just a bunch of ignorant terrorists. I hope you reported them to the police.
PETA is full of bs, there's actually a great video about it - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9ijLulwUTY
and you can probably press not only civil charges but criminal too, the whole re liquid thing may count as assault depending on the circumstances.
#11 - On 04/22/2009 at 4:02am by stegd133
WTF. Those bloody ecoterrorist don't have the right to do that.
Yet another reason why PETA blows. And I support a lot of animal rights groups too. Just not PETA.
PETA is out of control anyways, you don't just attack people.
I'll give the OP the benefit of the doubt
Another FML about expensive clothes being destroyed by colored liquids? The moderators definitely have a type.
PETA attracts psychos, they make animal rights activists look like idiots.
god damn PETA. they are nuts and they screw up the environment. near where i live they set a bunch of minx free from a minx farm and that screwed up the local ecosystem.
Agreed. PETA members are retards.
Wtf do you mean, why would someone wear fake fur as a vegetarian? I've been a vegetarian for over eight years and I wear fake fur. It's not the real thing, so it hurts nothing. That's like me saying, "oh, why do you have a water gun if you're for strict gun control? It doesn't hurt anything and it's not the real thing, but still, you shouldn't have something that represents it."
Just because you don't believe in something doesn't mean you can't have the non-harmful version of it. Christ, this place is judgment central.
Either way, PETA has no right to destroy anything, whether or not they believe in it, so how can it be a YDI? It's her property either way and that's illegal. It's so not a YDI.
Can someone please stop PETA? They're acting too aggressively.I love animals, but while animals are being hurt, PETA is too busy doing this nonsense and harassing people.
Like #7 said fake fur isn't always fake, so wearing fake fur as a animal rights activist and a vegitarian isn't exactly the most rational thing.
you deserved if for nothing else then being a douche bag animal rights activist
I'm sure she was careful to make sure the fake fur she was wearing was actually fake fur, since she's an animal rights activist and whatnot. that doesn't make this any less of an fml. PETA sucks, and they ruined her shit, period. #23, cool it.
PETA is a group of scum.
#25 - On 04/22/2009 at 4:29am by deathproof
I hate PETA. They took away my guns. My guns that shot blanks. AT FAKE FUCKING HIPPOS. I hope they all get eaten by wolves/bears.
Now you know what horrible people animal rights activists are. Repent.
Wearing fake fur and fake leather support the ideal that it is fashionable to wear animal products. Personally I don't care and I think PeTA is the most hypocritical organization I know of, but seriously don't claim animal rights and then wear animal inspired fashion. tsk tsk tsk.
This comment has been moderated.
PETA is the biggest bunch of bs ever made and no one could give a damn as to what they have to say because there are bigger things that are wrong with this world and lets fix the treatment of people before we go to fix the treatment of animals, not that they're not important but because animals won't one day blow up this planet with nuclear or biological weapons.
#30 - On 04/22/2009 at 4:39am by furi7
I hate PETA.
But I don't see the problem with wearing faux-fur. You like the way it looks but you're not contributing to the torture of animals - only the slavery of third world countries. :)
i hate peta
and fake fur is stylish and comfy withou killing cute animals
PETA is a hypocritical organisation.
PETA can go jump off a cliff. You should sue them for damage to personal property and emotional trauma. Maybe you can get some of that cash they usually hand out to terrorists.
#34 - On 04/22/2009 at 5:16am by DeeJayD
okay i know that peta people can wear fake fur and they allow it, but if they're attacking someone they should at least know what they're dealing with
#35 - On 04/22/2009 at 5:24am by HatesMyMom
i agree with #6
#36 - On 04/22/2009 at 5:24am by jennaboo
Damn peta.
I love furs, and hate people, who spoil the fur.
At least, it is just stupid - they paint my fur hat, and i need new hat. New Fur hat. Three or four foxes or polar foxes must be killed because of somebody wanted to save animals.
To expand on #8s idea, in addition to taking them to small claims court, sue them for Reckless Endangerment. What as in that liquid? You probably don't know, but the simple fact is that there's a chance you could me allergic to it, some allergies are fatal and someone could literally die because of what they do. In addition to this, the liquid is likely a dye of some sort, getting dyes in a variety of places, such as your eyes is not healthy (depending on what exactly the dye is made of), with the fur part being the hood they'd obviously need to put this near such places risking permanent damage to you. The dyes could also cause temporary changes in your skin colouration, if this was the case, it could potentially effect something like a job interview. If you're going to take them to court over this, make a list of everything that has happened to you over this, be creative but reasonable... than tack on something to cover "Pain and Suffering" just to piss off those PETArds.
i agree totally with #19.
to everyone whos like why the fuck would you wear fake fur instead of real fur, its a perfectly good alternative and 19 was right, it doesnt hurt anything.
jeez what a bunch of critical and judgmental comments lol.
PETA gives animal activists a horrible name.
as a vegan and someone who deeply cares for animals, i feel for you, im really really sorry.
This comment has been moderated.
YDI. You say you're an animal activist yourself. Now you know what you're doing to other people and how people like the most extreme animal activists just jump into conclusion. I am not a huge fur-fan myself, I think it is a waste to kill animals just for their fur, but it is stupid to waste it once they're already killed... Like a double loss.
Sue them, i would, after i kicked their asses though.
to #19
The fact of the matter is, people wont know it's fake. The fake fur will still support the idea that wearing fur is cool because it looks good. It's like joining an anti-smoking campaign, but walking around with a cigarette in your mouth because it looks cool. You aren't actually smoking it, but giving the appearance you are to look cool. You're still supporting the idea of it with a fake version by admitting it's something desirable. You might not intend for that to be the result, but it still happens.
PETA is a group of hypocritical, animal-murdering, scumbag bullies.
Just so we're all clear.
FYL. make them pay for the damages :)
#45 - On 04/22/2009 at 6:09am by theannoyingone
PETA is retarded, no matter what. They bitched over Angelina Jolie's fake fur recently.
P.S. They need to fucking buy you a new coat! Self-righteous bastards.
#46 - On 04/22/2009 at 6:19am by nobodyno
You deserved it, being a vegan and animal rights activists, you should not push into the fashion of wearing fur, even when it's not real. I agree wth 43
Anyway PETA, like said 44, are a bunch of assholes, they euthanase 2/3 of the animals they "save" from being euthanasied.. besides, being type 1 diabetic (you know, when you have to shoot yourself insulin.. you know, insulin developed by medical labs.. ) and saying "i'm not an hypocrit, i need my life to fight for the animals" and burning down the SAME LABS that help developed your threatment... And you know who said that ? the number 2 at PETA...
#47 - On 04/22/2009 at 6:24am by 4ube
from what i have read and what they have admited to, wouldnt peta be classified as a terrorist organisation??
maybe the only reason they are "protected" is because of the hollywood retards who suport them just to make themselfs look good.
im a animal lover but they are just retards
This is why I despise PETA. Along with the vegan thing.
I call BS.
Because "numerous PETA activists" just happen to carry around red liquid regularly. I thought that sort of thing was reserved only for pro-fur fashion events?
Do most PETA members carry around a bottle filled with red liquid to throw at anyone they see in fur?
I'm suprised they even had time to do this ... usually they're too busy euthanising animals they've "rescued"..
#51 - On 04/22/2009 at 6:29am by alki
that's only a proof Y'all so fucking stupid....your teeth were designed to eat me, so was your stomach...so stop goin against nature....YFDI
#1 why would animal rights activists oppose FAKE fur
@ #1 and the rest who think it was the OP's fault for wearing FAUX fur you are idiots. She was assaulted over clothing. I don't agree with people wearing fur but I don't think anyone has a right to assault you if you do.
If the PETA people were close enough to spray her, they should have simply reached out and felt the jacket first. Faux fur feels completely different to real fur.
Wow, i didn't know animal rights activists would damage peoples property
Faux-fur and leather is entirely fine. Saying veg*ns should wear them is like saying we shouldn't eat faux-meats (Quorn, etc), which is ridiculous. Faux-fur is supporting the cruelty free alternative. PETA activists aside, people don't just walk down the street, see fur-looking clothing, and think "oh that must be real fur, they support the death of animals for fashion" most people wouldn't even think about it, so it's not really supporting the real industry. Spending money on real fur supports the industry. Spending money on faux-fur shows there is demand for the cruelty-free alternative.
#52, we were designed to eat you? Cool! When are you being cooked and served, then?
That joke aside, I do know what you mean even though you worded it poorly. We weren't designed to eat flesh. Do some research, or just try killing a cow yourself (no guns, or knives, try doing it how a lion does), and eating it raw. When you are suffering greatly from the raw-cow-flesh consumption, if you succeed in killing the cow, remind me I'm meant to eat flesh.

Numbers one and six.
You are aware that the PETA website makes a number of recommendations for places where one may purchas fake fur and fake leather, right? You are aware that the PETA website raffles away faux fur coats and pins that support replacing real fur clothing with fake fur clothing, right? If that is the case, then are you also aware that I found all this out by googling the terms "faux fur peta" (except without quotation marks) and clicking on the first and third entries, both of which are from the PETA website? In the space of about thirty seconds?
Animal rights activists, even the crazy ones who fuck shit up for fun, have ben promoting fake fur as a reasonable alternative to the real deal for a while now.
P.S. PETA sucks, especially their "sea kittens" campaign.
umm...i'm a vegan & an animal rights activist, and I wear fake fur too.
word @ #56
And p.s. 56, the fact that one man is incapable of taking down a fully grown wildebeest doesn't mean that he was not "designed" (caveat: animals are not actually designed) to eat meat. We originally fit into an omnivorous ecological niche because we have the mental capacity to build tools that allow us to take down that wildebeest and then share it with our family and buddies. If you look at our dental structure, it doesn't really scream pure herbivory. Then again, nobody actually NEEDS to eat meat to survive, since all of the nutrients the body needs can be found elsewhere if one knows where to look.
I am vegetarian, but that by no means makes me agree with their actions. PETA, you are full of shit and you shouldn't just assume it was real fur! You are the reason people constantly make fun of me for being vegetarian, you are all pyscho. It's not what you are trying to accomplish that's awful, it's how you "accomplish" it.
Yea PETA??? PETA sux. The only thing good about PETA are their ads and their idea. The practices are insane though.
Some people like hamburgers but use turkey or soy for their health. Some people like to get laid but jack-off instead. Same principal, she liked the look and feel of fur but didn't want to harm a real animal. I commend her on that at least.
I think people should throw dog shit on PETA if they love animals that much.
They must be some dumbasses if they dont stop for one second for a person to make their case, "IT'S FAUX FUR!"
Back at #59, our digestive system really isn't geared for meat consumption. If you were to make a table of herbivore digestive system and carnivore digestive system (starting with teeth, and going on through intestines, etc) then add a human column to it, you'll find the human ones match up to the herbivore ones. I actually have this table somewhere, just sadly can't find the book it's in.
Omnivores. We're naturally Omnivores. Vegetarian diets certainly can provide the body with all necessary nutrients and proteins. But considering the way our teeth, for example, are arranged in the mouth, our bodies are capable of, and it was certainly evolutionarily advantageous, for us to be able to eat meat- having our incisors for cutting through tough meat as we do, and being less equipped to eat raw meat since as a species, we have been cooking meat for thousands, even hundreds of thousands of years.
Now that I think about it, YDI, why wear fake fur to fool people?
This comment has been moderated.
theres nothing wrong with wearing fake fur at all. its fucking natural to wear animal skins and furs. its how people stay warm.
im an animal rights activist too but seriously, PETA is fucking psychotic. i wouldve beat the shit out of all of them and sacrificed a goat infront of them all just to piss them off. even if it were real fur they have no right to go around destroying everyone's shit, to the people that dont care, theyll just go out and buy a new fur coat. how the how does that solve the animal abuse problems PETA?
#66, plenty of vegans do wear faux fur. There is nothing wrong with faux fur, or faux leather, or faux any-animal-product. Veg*ns support the animal-free option!
Nice #4. Yeah, the PETA sucks. Sorry about that. You should sue... seriously, why doesn't anyone sue them?
since when is faux-fur expensive. and its pretty to tell the difference between real fur n faux fur off the bat. this FML sounds like a load of bs.
I'm pretty sure you can sue them for that. Do it.
This is why no-body is ever sympathetic to animal rights activists, they think it's OK to do shit like this! And petrol bomb peoples cars and things. Honestly I think the biggest reason I would never become a vegetarian is that animal rights activists are a bunch of shitty cunts.
This comment has been moderated.
Plenty of vegetarians just go about their cruelty reducing ways quietly, only kicking up a fuss when faced with stupid people that think we all go around squirting red dye at people. Incase you didn't notice, this FML was posted by a /vegan/ complaining about PETA. Hate PETA, vegetarianism.
PETA sucks.

Dude, fuck all these "wearing fake fur is wrong because it looks like the real thing" people.
It is SO easy to tell what's fake fur, especially on hood trims such as the OP's, which is extremely common and everyone knows that.

Phuck them man, I would've had their asses sent to jail! Ruining a jacket, go ruin their lawns! (Why lawns idk)
peta kill the animals they take in ffs, revenge revenge revenge.
Haha, #78, I'll see you in triple bypass surgery, and again when you are getting your arteries worked on, and maybe again when you are getting a goiter removed. Have fun in ignorance.

PETA are a bunch of criminals who also sexually exploit women for their campaigns. Like their Lettuce Ladies campaign... a bunch of nearly naked women in lettuce bikinis... sure they have a male counterpart to that campaign... but the men are fully dressed... it's kind of disgusting to see how they have so much respect for animals but no respect for humans... who ARE animals.
I think it doesn't matter whether they think you're wearing fake fur or real fur, you don't just "attack" random people on the street with red liquid, what BS. If someone did that to me I might very well be writing the FML from a holding cell, for a different reason
Now you know how Jesus felt - being attacked by His own people.
PETA is nothing but a bunch of hypocrites. They are ridiculous and deserve to be locked up. I hope you went to the police and filed and assault charge!
PETA activism rocks - veganism rocks - it's completely easy to tell the difference between faux fur and real fur, so this story is really unlikely...
PETA sucks, I hope that you aren't involved with that group. If you are, YDI. Otherwise, FYL.
"You're not a real vegan if you wear fake fur hurrr!!" stfu 'tards.
And no, PETA activism does NOT rock.To the best of my experience PETA members are fucking nutjobs who would probably willingly maul a human being in favor of an animal if they could get away with it...oh wait...they pretty much have!
It's ok to be against killing animals for fur or even skinning them alive as some individuals do *shiver*
but when the hell do you get the right to attack people, steal their animals by "setting them free", etc? When you set a domesticated animal free do you know what you've actually done? In reality you've not only lost a human a pet and potential food/profit source, but you've shortened that animal's lifespan because it's so accustomed to being fed, cleaned, etc by humans. fuck PETA and FYL.
Wearing fake fur doesn't create the fur industry. It says, given that every society ever has thought that animal fur looks cool, let's find a way to reconcile that with not killing things.
If I drink my juice in a wine glass, does this make me *as bad as* an alcoholic according to the PETA standards when it comes to real VS fake? If I eat candy cigarettes in a public area, should I be shunned as if I were a smoker?
Seriously, some of you PETA types need to get back on your medication, target the people creating the real problems, make an *actual* difference and stop wasting your time, effort and energy on fakers. Your wasting time on people who DO NOT hurt animals.
What is wrong with you? Are your too scared to go to the real targets?
If this is what you people do and feel you need a pat on a back for it, you've already lost the plot of your argument. Step back and see what you've achieved.
That's 3.6k of votes vs 1.3k and what few voted of that 1k sound unstable.
Someone should link this on failblog with giant red spray painted letters saying PETA FAIL.
Do us all a favour, go support scientology. No wait, scratch that. Cruise already beat you at making that look like a complete folly in public.

Are you sure it was PETA? It seems more like an Animal Rights Group (ARG) move, who actually is on classified at a domestic terrorist group. PETA's weapon of choice is flour.
Wearing it sends the message that wearing fur, fake or not, is fashionable. Not something an animal rights activist would want to promote but hey whatever, that doesn't give anyone the right to fucking ruin it. Even as a (non assholey) PETA member myself, I really hope you pressed charges.
PETA is fcking psycho. they kill animals.
I'm a Vegan and an animal-rights activist. You left off idiot.
PETA can suck my balls hahaha
I support PETA. Please Eat Tasty Animal.
But seriously, PETA are full of idiots and psychos. I propose we train attack dogs to attack PETA members. It's a win. They get maul and can't fight back otherwise it goes against their cult like belief.
Seems to me that if I was against the wearing of fur, I wouldn't wear something that looked like fur. It's supporting the fashion, which ultimately leads to more fur being put on clothing. I agree with everyone, PETA is obnoxiously extreme.
#98 - On 04/22/2009 at 9:14am by yooper10
Just so you all know, it's not PETA who is psychotic. It's ALF. You were probably attacked by ALF members. Those are the activists that are known to throw red liquid on people wearing fur. PETA members are actually much more civilized with their attempts at convincing people to go Vegan/Veggie.
bash: "it's fake fur, you dumb bitch!" "that's okay, it's fake blood"
I hate PETA, and wouldn't have hesitated to break their god damned faces wide open... If I were in that situation, at least. I don't wear fur, never will... But, if someone threw red liquid at me they'd better be sure they can run faster than I can.
Yet more proof that PETA and the vast majority of it's members are nothing short of mentally and socially inept.
PETA has the worst way of going about their cause. Take them to a small claims court!
i'm sure from this long pose that it's already said and done, but:
1. Break PETA's member's faces.
2. Serves you right. You support animal rights but you are willing to pay a lot of money for the fur look?
i am vegan too, but i would never wear faux fur. not because it promotes fur, but because fur, real or not, is just tacky.
it is messed up what PETA supposedly did (i know a great bunch of PETA members, and frequent peta2.com for info on what is and is not vegan) and i believe red paint throwing went out in the 80's after they started getting in boatloads of trouble for it.
i think i am gonna have to call zombie BS on this one.
This is indeed a great FYL -- at least it is easy to fix. They sell meat in stores these days, and at almost every restaurant. Within 15 minutes, you can get that Veganism cleared right up!
OP: there's no point in veganism, the unfertilized eggs of chickens rot if not used, cows go into really extreme pain if not milked, and their calves do not drink all of it at once, so why not use these things if they're just going to go to waste.
Have you ever heard of Maddox?
He has good points about this stuff.
1. Did you know that through massive amounts of grain harvesting thousands of small, field animals are killed every year? If you don't believe in the murder of animals grow your own crops and harvest them by hand, then protest big farmers who machine harvest.
Or is that too inconvenient for you? As soon as it gets a little harder to support your beliefs your going to take the easier route? Pussy.
2. From now on I'm going to sponsor you, you tell us how many meals you ate without meat that normally would have meat, then I'm going to eat 3 times as many animals. And so I won't get fat, I'll work out and exercise 3 times more just to spite you.

PETA eat dick
You didn't deserve that.
aww, I hate PETA. they're so ridiculous.
PETA sucks. I would have lost my shit if i'd have been pelted by red liquid, especially by PETA. Somebody was losing teeth.

#113 - On 04/22/2009 at 10:27am by libertyprime
if your a vegan why on earth would you wear even fake fur? i'm vegitarian also and i dont wear fake fur because it still supports fur as a trend. YDI.
so...PETA ppl don't own cars, don't ride the bus or the metro, they don't use the heat nor the AC in their homes, and when they go outside they definitely do not wear coats that may have sheep filling?????
Cut the crap PETA ppl.
I love animals, I would never hurt one and whenever I have free time I volunteer at animal shelters to give 'em some love. But come on, I still live my life how ever I want to.
And by the way, being a vegan and/or vegetarian is kind of contradictory because plants are living creatures too. So how about you all starve and do society a big favor!
eat a steak you hairy snatched hippie.
Ummm.... This is some bullshit. Who cares if she is an activist or a vegan or whatever. It doesn't matter if the fur was fake or real she should be able to wear clothes that she pays for without having to worry about some asshole coming up and ruining it with red liquid. PETA is out of control.... wow this just made me really angry.lol
"Numerous PETA members"? I find that really hard to believe. Usually when they vandalize fur coats on people, it's someone with "important" or "high class", which I guess was never really specified here, but it still sounds phoney. When I read that I seriously imagined some completely random mob of PETA members holding up signs, protesting nothing in particular on that day, and they see you and fuck with you? Ionno...
Just goes to show that PETA is only full of a bunch of arse holes. PETA kills! They euthanize about 80% of the animals they claim to save!
Good, maybe now you'll understand how sick people are of the childish, inconsiderate destruction and disruption you "activists" bring. Be thankful they just poured red dye. They've done worse. You definitely deserved it.
Make them pay for your dry cleaning bill and if that still doesn't get it out, make them pay for a whole new jacket! I'm not against animal activists, but come on, don't go throwing stuff on strangers!
#19 is right. There's no reason why this person shouldn't be allowed to wear fake fur. That's what it's for; an alternative to killing animals for it. But whether its real fur or not, they're destroying someone's property which is wrong.
#124 - On 04/22/2009 at 11:01am by e86
Bull.. I totally doubt that.
i have one thing to say to PETA: (this was in my anatomy class last year)

they ruined my grandmother's antique fur boa a while ago this same way.
People for the Eating of Tasty Animals! Everyone should join!
The real PETA can go suck it.
i hope you really gave them shit for it
kicked the shit out of at least one of them and said ITS NOT FUCKING REAL YOU NOW OWE ME A NEW JACKET YOU PRICKS
That is what you get for being vegan and animal activist.
I dislike Peta. I'd rather eat the cow than have sex with it, thank you very much.
#130 - On 04/22/2009 at 11:16am by Bassorandy
holy crap.... dicks...
PETA is just a bunch of furrys
Is the red liquid common? Cause they did that to someone in a movie. LOl
But if your a animal-right's activist why even wear fur?
That's what you get for perpetuating a style trend you claim to be opposed to.

#6 is a moron. so does that mean vegans shouldn't eat veggie burgers because they REPRESENT real beef burgers? dumbass.
http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/02/07/dog.fur/index.html
If her jacket really was expensive, greater than $150, than it would have had to have been mislabeled or secondhand for her to believe it was faux fur as opposed to the dog or raccoon fur that is used as "faux fur" on cheap jackets
But yeah spraying red paint on fur coats is a pretty stupid idea. So now instead of passing down on antique coat the person has to go out and buy a NEW fur coat. And probably a second one two in case their new one gets ruined. So all spraying paint does is promote the killing of animals for clothing that would have other wise never been purchased
#56
we are not lions, we are not meant to fucking kill a cow by just trying to break into its flesh with our teeth while its just standing there. thats just fucking stupid. we are humans...what do you think the ancient humans did, the people that just came out of caves and started hunting. they made primitive tools, killed an animal with that, and did eat the damn thing raw. they didnt know how to cook an animal right away. so yes we are meant to eat flesh. in fact, if those anicent humans didnt eat red meat, we wouldnt be the way we are today. how about you try doing some research. red meat gave us the protein to make our brains develop, without it, we wouldnt be the same humans we are today. and no, plants and shit would not have worked the same way, they did eat plants also, but without the animals we would not have developed the same.
you should have yelled at them and said exactly what you said here! maybe then they would feel terrible and change their meddling busybody ways and learn to live and let live, o and mind their own business...and yes you should call the cops, and you have the right to wear faux fur even if you are into animal rights, it's fashion, geez people
What the fuck? PETA people are getting fucking pathetic.
Fair enough if they want to protest against real fur, KFC and everything else..
but now they're actually attacking people with red liquid?
You can barely tell the difference between real and fake fur
which makes them fucking arrogant losers.
I support their petition against the seal clubbing, and wearing real fur in general
But they are taking it way too far.. you can't just wreck someone's clothes.. you should/should have pressed charges.
Also, to the people having a bitch about OP wearing a fake fur coat.. get a grip! PETA are the people who should be PROMOTING fake fur! #124 pretty much sums that up.
YDI - as you're an "animal rights activist".
I respect the vegan thing. You don't want to see animals dead, so you stop eating them.
Animal rights activist - if that means you try and stop medicines being tested on animals - you deserve all you get.
Any of you PETA freaks out there - by all means promote vegetarian/veganism: we have good alternatives to meat. Ditto fur/leather - plenty of good synthetics/cotton/silk.
We don't have any good alternatives that work for testing medicines on animals (other than you stepping up to the plate and testing them for toxicity on yourself - computer modelling will never work, tissue culture doesn't work), so if you're stopping medical animal testing, you are responsible for potentially killing many people prematurely.
@#135
That law says that it only has to have less than $150 in real fur to be labeled, and in terms of Dog fur, that goes a long way.
and I still agree with #1, you have no idea if you are wearing faux fur or not, so why risk it!
uhm, it's not her fault if she was wearing faux fur? faux fur doesn't represent real fur, or else it WOULD BE real fur. faux fur just means that you like the style, but don't feel that it's worth killing animals over. there's NO WAY you could say this is her fault. really? number 6? "how are PETA members supposed to know if it's fake"? THEY'RE NOT. they shouldn't be going around damaging other peoples' stuff in the first place, because they assume stuff like this and then look like assholes. this girl didn't do anything wrong. PETA's just being over-extreme assholes who get no respect from anyone because they're so irresponsible with how they handle things.
I'd call the police on those idiots. That's just freaking rude and disrespectful. Yeah, meat is murder. Tasty, tasty murder. >:}
PETA is the scum of the earth. They're juvenile and brutal tactics do nothing but tarnish the name of animal activists that don't resort to the same kind of bullshit. They should be criminalized.
More blood pouring?
Has no one watched 'Carrie'!!??!?
SHE'LL KILL YOU WITH HER POWER >
PETA are fucking terrorists and they should be shot.
fuck them
i have nothing against vegetarians, vegans, and people who choose to waste their life protecting animals, but PETA goes too fucking far and they need to be stopped.
they are fucking hypocrites and they publicly humiliate and attack civilians because they choose to wear things that resemble animal fur. their whole 'meat is murder' campaign is fucking retarded. Lions kill slower and weaker animals and eat them. So do eagles, owls, snakes, spiders, and every motherfucking animal high enough on the food chain to open their mouth and consume another creature. mankind has figured out ways of mechanizing and expediently killing animals to provide nourishment for ourselves.
Fuck peta, fuck everything about them.
#56,
Funny, all the independent studies I have ever seen show the human being is omnivorous, and cannot subsist on a locally grown, all vegan diet for the vast majority of the world. You can manage an all vegan diet, but it requires supplements, and consumption of non-locally grown foods, or modern farming methods and imported crops -- something that a primitive person cannot do. Studies have also shown, repeatedly, that without animal products, and animal meats, the population of the earth is unsustainable. Without animal based fertilizers, the crop land wears out too fast, and without grazing animals to turn marginal, non-arable lands (flood basins, desert grasslands, etc) into food producing lands, we are basically screwed.
PETA members are hypocrites anyway.
YDI. You and your friends would have done it to someone else. Pardon the pun, but what's good for the goose is good for the gander.
#146, you took the words right out of my mouth. =)
How r people is nice, huh?
That's assault. Why would you complain about it on the internet instead of having them arrested? Dumbass.
Dear PETA,
I am a beef/corn/soybean producer. Your methods are extreme, animals are tasty, that's why we eat them. They look good, hince why we wear them. Speaking from a view point of actually being on the farm and seeing how animals are produced, they are in no way shape or form mistreated, and most are all killed humanily (which is weird because they aren't humans).
This is why you all are dumb: Your organization helped to pass a law banning the slaugher of horses in the US, horses that are old, sick to near death, or have a broken leg that need to be put down. Instead of being humanily put to death here, people are making a fortune off of horses by taking them to Mexico, where God knows what they are doing to the animals down there.
Next time, stay in the city and leave the animal producers, who actually understand things, to take care of their animals in the way they see fit.
That is all.
148 wtf?
that made no sense at all...
ive read your post 5 times and fail to make even the slightest bit of demented sense out of it.
she deserves it because you think that her and her friends are also terrorists?
you are a complete idiot.
#153
The OP admitted to being an activist.
I'm a member of PETA: People Eating Tasty Animals
members of peta should be able to tell the fur is not real. seriously. this is why no one likes them. i'm a vegetarian and am totally with you on this, because i have a jacket with a faux fur hood (which was, however, not expensive), and you can tell looking at it that it's fake.
#156 - On 04/22/2009 at 12:39pm by noreallyitstrue
YDI for being a hypocrite.
That is why PETA bugs the hell out of me.
no. 17, it may not be real fur, but it condones the use of real fur on clothing. what's so animal rights and vegan about that?
#160 - On 04/22/2009 at 1:00pm by screampillow
those PETA peeps are fuckin crazy
Haha PETA, if they ever do something like that to me they're gonna get their ass kicked. They have no right to damage my personal property.
#163 - On 04/22/2009 at 1:12pm by thelonelylurker
If you're an animal rights activist, then you're on the same level as peta, and you deserve to know the terrible things these people do, like throwing paint on innocent people. If you want to make a change in the world, become an animal WELFARE supporter. Those are the kind of people that actually want to help the animals for the animals and not for their own selfish ideals.
@26 Lol, Disneyland much? We still get to shoot the animatronic hippos. :P
#164 - On 04/22/2009 at 1:12pm by c0w
I wish like hell the Peta fuckers will attack me I fucking wish ill beat some serious asses and strangle them with my fur! Stupid asses
What's ridiculous is that PETA actually puts down more abandoned animals than any other organization hosting an animal shelter -- nearly 85% are killed. Congrats PETA -- you're officially the biggest animal killers out there!
Hypocritical ecoterrorists.
http://www.newsweek.com/id/134549
Wouldn't that be illegal? I mean if they are "attacking" you or covering you in liquid, wouldn't that be able to pass as legal-assault? In which case, sue the organization, because those P.E.T.A people are crazy and need to be taken down a nauch.
#6: "Your annoyance at having red liquid thrown at you is infuriating!!"
Yes, if someone assaulted me, I'd be completely out of line in being irritated. Get a clue.
Did you know PETA puts Millions of fully adoptable Animals to sleep every year.
http://www.petakillsanimals.com/
Fucking hell, PETA are numnuts.
@154 (Ozy) yep! Exactly. Thank you.
PETA consists of a bunch of brainwashed losers that have nothing better to do with their time. The sad thing is, it carries on from generation to generation. They shouldn't be allowed to breed.
You should've knocked them out.
I hate PETA and I've always wanted to beat the shit out of one or two of their brainwashed terrorist minions. Do you think if I wore fur and baited them into throwing something on me I could then legally beat them up?
Everyone that is knocking the OP around for wearing fake fur is a bit ridiculous. I've gone to the store and seen MEATLESS JERKY. Why would vegetarians eat that? Because they like jerky, but can't eat meat. Why would an animal rights person wear fake fur? Because it's NOT real fur.
Suing them might be a little much though. Just go throw red liquid all over them next time, take the paint from them and go to war. See how much they like their clothes ruined.
Do you know how many children don't get stuffed animals because of your jacket? Terrible..!!!!!
:P
You should know, as a vegan, that a lot of "faux" fur actually contains REAL fur. That fur is usually dog, cat, or raccoon dog (who are often skinned alive) fur. Seeming as you don't seem to know that, you suck at being a vegan. And everyone else who says it's weird for you to wear fake fur in the first place is right on, too.
i hate Peta and im a vegetarian. all they do it make people think vegetarians are crazy activist which i am not. i understand they love animals or whatever but the way they show it, like ruining random peoples clothing, is a little much for me.
she's wearing FAKE fur because it looks nice. simple.
she still loves animals. it's not an animal. no problem. people should think about it - fake furs are popular, it's common and fashionable, it doesnt mean she's going against her beliefs
I'm fairly amazed at the amount of people being complete assholes to this girl for trying to do a good thing. Obviously she wears fake fur because she thinks it looks good and there's like no possible way I can twist my mind to find something wrong with that. So if I love bacon but I don't want to eat pig, I'm a bad person for cooking my tofu in grease and adding salt? Get real.
so how does it feel to be assosiated with the psycho eco terrorists?
#1, is right, I was fixn ta say the same thing. #178, excuse me, but did you follow them when they made the "FAKE" fur?
#181 - On 04/22/2009 at 1:51pm by Jokermon
PETA is a joke. YDI.
I heard they were recently in Fort Hood, Texas, and that is actually where I'm from. Is that where this happened?
Everyone, it was cold out, just about every arctic coat has some form of fur on it, and she was wearing one that was still morally acceptable for her. FYL because some douche bag animal rights activists are assholes. this is in no way your fault.
#183 - On 04/22/2009 at 1:52pm by mmudd
#1
what if she was supporting people to wear fake fur instead of real fur?
idiot.
I would dance for joy the day stupid PETA tards like this got thrown in jail for their idiocy.
Fuck PETA.
petakillsanimals.com
If PETA poured any red liquid on me, I would kick the living shit out of every one of them I could get a hold of them. I don't care if they're female. I hope they die in a car fire. Whip out the camera phone and try and get every last one of them charged with assault.
PETA sucks, animal cruelty sucks, OP sucks
You suck!
I'm surprised more people didn't catch this--- someone mentioned this happening in a comment in the white dress FML yesterday.
uhh..unless you're a moron you can tell the difference between fake and real fur products...oh wait it was PETA nevermind.
ydi for choosing to wear environmentally harmful and extremely polluting synthetics in the name of animal rights, you hypocrite.
PETA is stupid. The way they jump to conclusions is ridiculous and pathetic.
They're all a bunch of morons.
Yeah. You were wearing FAKE fur! So what?!
You make a good point by wearing it! People don't need to kill animals to have cute clothes, if we can make/buy the synthetic stuff.
PETA is too stupid to realize that and they should be shut down completely for what they do.
Hey everybody, let's all eat PETA members.
To the OP, FYL. That's so messed up. They should be able to tell fake fur from real fur just by looking at it.
I really don't like PETA, and this whole ruin someone's clothes thing is stupid! All the person is going to do is go buy another coat or whatever just like it and more animals will die because of it and this time it will be their fault.
#1, why not fake fur? It's pretty easy to tell the difference if you're not blind, it's warm, and OP obviously liked the fashion. I'm picturing those Hollister-type ones that are definitely not the fur of any animal alive and are actually this course fiber stuff.
Those PETA members just had to be judgmental dicks about it.
Jeez. PETA members are such stupid assholes.
When will they learn that it's not nice to force their opinions on other people? (especially in destructive ways like pouring red liquid on expensive property)
Yeah, seriously, the person involved in PETA said that? Beef and Pork Insulin are derived from Beef and Pork DNA. It's tested on animals because *SHOCKER!* It only works on living things. There's usually a PETA rally or two every year on the campus of the local university. I try to steer clear of those nut jobs.
well, if you're a true animal-rights activist, you should know about PETA members. YDI, but I'm still sorry for you hahah
lol YDI, animal rights activist my ass
if u can prove that they are from the organization, then u might be able to press charges...thats messed up even if u prolly shouldn't wear it as an activist!!!!!!!!!!
yeh if any peta members did that to me i would take out my knife and stab one of them. fuck off.
If you're a member of PETA you must be aware that fake fur should not be worn. It only sends the message that wearing fur in any form is appropriate, which it is not.
By the way, where the hell do you live that PETA members are just randomly walking down the street throwing paint on random people. Usually they save that kind of thing for special events in order to get publicity, not just on some random street in anywhere USA. Your story seems to be quite made up.
dude, anyone saying that you shouldnt be wearing fake fur is pretty dumb. im pretty sure people eat fake meat and find it ok. same thing. even if you dont, fake fur isnt harmful at all, it looks good sometimes. real fur is fucked up, but whatever. missunderstandings happen, but most of the time peta is outside of stores that sell real fur. idk where the hell you were.
Agreed, #207. Also agreed with all the people saying that PETA is made up mostly of assholes. They can't get what they want through normal campaigning and lobbying (partly because they do stupid and controversial things like compare slaughterhouses to Auschwitz), so they resort to childish tactics like throwing dye on people. It's a free country assholes, win your fights the right way.
All you have to do is read PETA's mission statement to know that their priorities are fucked up and many at the top are batshit crazy.
Some people don't really care about the animals, they just want to harass other people and cause trouble. I never killed anything bigger than a songbird, but I can't wait to slaughter deer. The reason being-since humans destroyed most of the predators trying to get their furs and teeth to act tough, nothing hunts the deer any more and they get over populated. They then cause trouble by getting hit by cars and eating all the food that other animals need to eat. Then most of them will slowly starve to death. Some things need to die so there are enough resources for others to live.
Can PETA get sued for the shit they try to pull? Because every time I hear something like this, I really can't believe they all don't get arrested.
That's really dumb of you. Why woudl you even wear fake fur? That's almost as bad as wearing real fur.
PETA terrorists aren't really animal rights activists. They're just terrorists. Bullies with a cause, socially inept jerks who get their kicks by abusing other people. Be proud of yourself for being one of the people who really ARE making a difference - without making the world a rotten place to live.
Why wear fake fur? Because it looks good and doesn't harm animals. I don't see the the problem.
I would have flipped out on them. I'm not even kidding. How dare they assume it was real fur. There's faux fur jackets everywhere.
dude Fuck PETA except if its People Eating Tasty Animals
but stillI agree with #1
petas fucking retarted
#217 - On 04/22/2009 at 3:33pm by kahulaoz
peta sucks, but this is fake
I fucking hate PETA. It's all a bunch of bullshit.
if you were an animal rights activist you wouldn't even be wearing FAKE fur, since even though it's fake it still justifies that it's okay to wear it, which it is not. you are a douchebag, and deserved that red liquid.
And that's why vegans suck.
Just because you're a vegan and an animal rights activist it doesn't mean PETA won't find some reason to hate you. Sorry that you had to deal with their bullshit. (And ignore all the flamers cuz most of them hopefully will learn in time that they are hypocritical douchebags.)
Regardless of whether or not you should be wearing fake fur as an animal rights activist, NO ONE has the right to go throw red shit all over you. NO ONE. I hope you shot each one of those fuckers in the back of the head, execution style.
why would you be a jackass and wear fake fur? why don't you find some fake beer and drink bottles of it while driving or rob a gas station with a fake gun? then we can all feel sorry for you again when your deluding others results in another inconvenience.
#226 - On 04/22/2009 at 4:28pm by evolveahimsa
i'm a vegetarian as well & i hate PETA. fuck that extremist shit, its extremists of all kinds that cause problems in the world. and she has every right to wear fake fur, its the same thing as eating a veggie burger and has nothing to do with real-live animal abuse.
Huh. Some people are just stupid and act on impluse without thinking. I would've said, "I hope you all are going to pay for this, or I'll open a can of whoop a**!" Just kidding. But I hope you told them they'd better pay.
#228 - On 04/22/2009 at 4:38pm by Funtertaining11
seriously? what kind of a vegan wears fake fur? other than the really dumb ones-- oh wait, there are only really dumb ones. You deserve this for being a vegan.
I'm calling this BS unless you just walked out of a fur store. Super BS because it was only a hood, I doubt they would give a shit. Quadruple BS because recently they don't do paint, they give them to the homeless.
Hate PETA so fucking much...
Maybe she was wearing a jacket with fake fur because she was cold. It's better insulation, and why shouldn't she be able to wear it, even if she is a vegan? Ditto to #227. I hate that they do that. Fake fur doesn't really have anything to do with animal cruelty, and the stupid PETA members should realize that or at least consider it may not be real before they squirt you with fake blood.
http://www.nokillnow.com/PETAPart1HorribleSecrets.htm
I wanted to share that...it's true.
I support them really, it is a bit too extreme though. Most "fake" fur is REAL fur people, you have to understand it is cheaper then the synthetic stuff so the jackasses pretend. It is your fault for wearing "fake" fur, and I am not too sorry for you quite honestly.
I assume when you say PETA you're referring to the "People for the Eating of Tasty Animals," yes?
PETA is rediculous, radical, and founded by hypocritical weirdos.
234, no. fake fur or not, it's too late to matter. that's destruction of property and could be considered assault and i would sue for whatever i could get [that's the beautiful thing about america, isn't it?] and either way people have been killing, eating, and wearing animals since creation.. the great thing? animals do this to eachother every day.. honey, you wouldn't even be here if our ancestors didn't kill, eat, and wear animals. get over yourselves, PETA followers.
peta can shove it up the ass. so can u for supporting them also make em pay for it.
#238 - On 04/22/2009 at 5:30pm by eppie
When you say you're an animal rights activist, does that mean you support PETA? If you do, you totally deserved that happening to you.
PETA's a pain in the ass. you should not be punished for wearing imitation fur.
I support peta but that's just RIDICULOUS.
man, that sucks D:
did you tell them that it was fake fur and that your a vegan and all that? i would've loved to see their faces.
Did you make them pay you back ?
if they didn't pay you for your jacket you should definitely sue. Not against 'peta' though, just the people who did it.
what jerks those kids D:
awww, that sucks. Sue? XD
I sort of hate animals and think groups like PETA really need to step back and think about what the fuck they're doing.
why the hell are you beating up on them for wearing fake fur? wtf.
its not real ur all a bunch of douche bags.
PETA should be sued for that. their f'n ridiculous
234...not everything is a conspiracy...And I'm pretty sure it's a lot cheaper to synthesize fur than it is to get rare animal furs, considering how cheap it is to make cloth and such nowadays. Oh, conspiracy nuts...
fuck PETA and their red liduids!
PETA= People Eat Tasty Animals. XD
uhhhh isn't that destruction of property?
i know a lot of vegans who wear fake fur.
another thing,
PETA sucks. they're hypocrites. they kill thousands of animals a year. the end.
Fake. Peta members don't carry around 'red liquid' - they reserve that kind of thing for events where a ton of fur is worn.
and btw, vegans can definitely wear fake fur.
This is for you people saying "Why were you even wearing fake fur? YDT"
YOU are the hypocrites.
You're more worried about others THINKING you care, than about actually protecting animals.
Because if you were worried about animals you'd support fake fur, wich was invented to PROTECT animals. It exists to convince people not to wear real fur.
And fuck PETA.
You don't need to be part of that to make a difference.
That kind of organisations are full of posers that just want everyone to think they care. Many of them don't even know what they are talking about.
They are just as dumb, hypocrite and fake as the government.
And I say this because I know that kind of people. The posers that act like non-conformists to stand out.
It's because of them that people that actually think and do research about what they are going to talk about before they do are not taken seriously.
I agree with 227.
P.S.: What #248 wrote is true. Or at least I've also heard about it.
And it wasn't the only organisation acused of doing that.
It's a business just. End of story.
i never understood the whole fucking PETA thing. If you're anti-smoking do you shit all over people that smoke? How does destroying other people's lives support your cause? Go after the root
PETA and everyone associated with them are fucking losers. If you had left the last part out, I would have felt sorry for you and suggested that you kick their ass. Instead, I laugh at the probability that you have done the same thing or at least support it. Maybe you and your idiot friends will have a new perspective next time. I notice that you brave souls never do that to anyone except old women who weigh less than 100 pounds. I promise you that your gender wouldn't prevent me from punching you in the face if you attacked me like that.
PETA members are idiots. I'm all for animal rights, but PETA is just too extreme.
PETA members are fucking insane. Whoever said they should go back onto their meds are right. I had supported them a long time ago, but when I found out how they didn't support humans having pets, I said 'oh hell nah'. How dare they try and put their values on me and expect me to agree with them! It's like the idiots who stand in front of Planned Parenthood. It's my choice, so leave me the fuck alone!
Anywho, I would have called the cops and had them arrested. I would have charged them with assault. If the cop didn't arrest them, then at least I would have had a police report done, so them I have more proof to take them to small claims court and get some money out of them.
PETA is so dumb and hypocritical.
Comment number 1 is fucked up. This person just wanted to wear something they thought looked nice.
then why the fuck are you wearing faux fur??? faux fur is just an advertisement for real fur. #1 is right!
omg i feel sorry for yah jeeze what did u do to them once they sprayed u with the red shit?, if that happened to me I would beat them
PETA is cruel and idiotic
wow, if someone threw anything on me for wearing something warm, or (were i a girl) cute, i would fuck them up brass knuckle style. that is total bullshit!
#261 - On 04/22/2009 at 8:07pm by d4rkn3s5
Regardless of your views on wearing fur, throwing "red liquid" on to somebody's coat completely unprovoked just because you think it is wrong is ridiculous.
I cant stand PETA (im an animal activist too) theyre absolutley crazy and make false assumptions 24/7
just because animals are cute and furry doesn't mean you should treat them better than you treat actual human beings. I hope one of them reads this and decides it's time to think of a better, less demeaning way to get their point across
#264 - On 04/22/2009 at 8:37pm by graciegirl
oh, and i would like to share with everyone a bumper sticker i saw on a car yesterday (while driving past the SPCA):
PETA: People Eating Tasty Animals
and haha #4
#265 - On 04/22/2009 at 8:40pm by graciegirl
I'm proud to be a member of People eating tasty animals and the real peta is a bunch of duechbags. Also i can see opposing eating meat so you don't kill animals but why not drink milk or eat ice cream . seriously? anyway YDI for wearing fake fur
YDI for thinking animals have rights and just cause PETA is the most absurd idea in history.
Those f'ed up extremist radicals should all be rounded up and gassed.
That would be assault and battery. Prosecute.
I'm also an animal activist but to all the people complaining about wearing what resembles fur, quote from wikipedia:
Fake fur, also called fun fur or faux fur, is any material made of synthetic fibers designed to resemble fur, normally as part of a piece of clothing. It has been available since the 1950s, but its increasing popularity has been credited to its promotion by animal rights and animal welfare organizations which claim that it is an animal-friendly alternative to traditional fur clothing.
Exactly why PETA and everyone who supports them deserve to be shoved into a rocket, and shot into the sun.
Not only are they hypocrites, but they're damn stupid too and give a bad name to real animal activists.
one time i was walking downtown and these peta people were demonstrating about leather. the one guy takes a look at my sister and i and goes, "see, these ladies are stylish and they're not wearing leather!" haha i was wearing a wool coat and suede gloves. booyah
both the PETA members and you are extremely idiotic
Just out of curiosity, is it even legal for PETA or anyone to do that?
OMG I am a vegan too :) lol. I love PETA and I completely support what they did :) I have a coat with a faux fur trim, too though. I bought it before I went vegan. I don't disagree with what they did, though.
I'm pretty sure that if u were a real PETA activist u wouldn't even wear fake fur... definitely YDI vegan =p
PETA is stupid anyway...
I agree with #267
PETA is a waste of life
And this is why everybody thinks PETA are assholes, because they think they have the right to basically assault people on the street. Goddamned pricks all need to DIAF or something.
FIGURES.
leave it to them.
eat meat, it's better for you.
and the world.
YDI for wearing fake fur.
YDI just for being an animal rights fucktard.
#282 - On 04/22/2009 at 10:49pm by Up24Hrs
YDI for being vegan.
#283 - On 04/22/2009 at 10:53pm by Up24Hrs
YDI for all of the above. And if I saw anyone trying to douse me with red liquid, I'd punch them in the jaw...
PETA is another acronym for terrorist alqueda hippies
Ha ha you're stupid and a fucking Hypocrite, You deserved that!
whats with idiots like 11 saying they should take them to court...did they throw the stuff and yell out BY THE WAY MY NAMES TONY MCSTUPID, I REPRESENT PETA AND YOU CAN REACH ME ON 0433958682...
good luck pressing charges on someone when you dont know who the fuck they are...morons.
you also assume theyre from peta, they may have just been a group of assholes who thought itd be funny to throw shit on people in fur.
Check out that video on youtube #11posted it's very interesting.
You got off lucky. Animal rights activists need a face pounding. That's what you should have got.
well vegitarians also eat fake meat like tofu. so why cant she wear fake fur? dont be so over critical people.
Well that'll teach you to be a part of a guerrilla terrorist organization. Fuck PETA and their red paint. How about you guys try preaching your hate-filled views in Russia where if you don't wear fur, you freeze your ass off. Oh right, didn't that FAIL miserably? Keep your own morals to yourself and out of my face. If my faux fur (faux because I can't afford an actual fur) hoodie gets red paint on it by your brood, hell will be paid and legal fines will be issued. Assault is assault.
Oh they're not just against fur, they're against the fashion - even if it's fake. If I have to beat someone half to death with a leather shoe I will.
to be honest...this is fake as shit.
You deserved it. Damn animal lovers.
one day when i go fucking crazy im going on a peta-rampage-spree and ending a bunch of those fucks.
ok probably not, but if i every get crazy cenile or truly believe there is no moral repurcussion for killing some faggot that would rather be an animal then i'll take a 12 gauge to their headquarters.
i'll walk in there with a fur coat eating beef jerky and pop those smug little fucks left and right.
ahhh if only life was like grand theft auto
actually, YDI just for being a Vegan and an animal-rights activist.
I'm so glad I'm ambivant to this sort of thing.
People should be stoppiing puppy mills, irresponsible breeding, and REAL animal abuse,
not giving a fuck about fur.
We're qualified as animals too.
Maybe PETA will start fucking with the Locks of Love coporation. . .hehe
#299 - On 04/23/2009 at 2:39am by yzarci57
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
ohhh man, I've been waiting to hear about something like this actually happening
I don't know if this is real or not
but I've always thought about what I'd do if it ever happened to me
I wish a PETA would!!

That sucks! those PETA members can be way harsh sometimes and totally uncalled for. Nobody should be tossing liquids onto anybody!

Telling her she shouldn't wear fake fur as an animal-rights activist is like telling her she shouldn't eat veggie burgers as a vegan, just because they look the same. It makes perfect sense for an animal-rights activist to wear fake fur, as it is a way of advocating for others to wear fake fur instead of the real thing. I can see where it's a gray area, but it's obvious where she's coming from. Chill.
i love how PETA is so hypocritical, because they kill more animals then they save.
and that was a bit extreme.
I'm my own vegan, and i don't need to represent a company to do it.
@ #19 - You don't seem to understand. By wearing even fake fur, you're endorsing the idea that that 'look' is ok. Which is something you don't agree with. As soon as fur is no longer 'in style', fake or not, you won't have to deal with the people that wear the real mccoy...
All you assholes blasting this person for being vegan and buying faux fur:
you never ate a tofu dog? How about a veggie burger? Looks like meat so how can anyone tell the difference?
OP- FYL, no one deserves to be assaulted for walking down the street. If PETA has the right to attack people that don't support their views and values does this give the KKK, terrorists, and other hate-mongers the right to do the same thing?
obv no.
Regardless of whether or not she was wearing fake fur, WHO CARES. She was assaulted by radicals who need to be sued. No, scratch that, not sued - beaten mercilessly.
I'm midway: YDI for wearing fake fur because its ugly. but FYL for getting red paint all over you. Hope it wasnt in a big public place....

Nearly went against character and expressed sympathy. Then I read you were a vegan animal rights-supporter.
Sorry love.
Okay first off PETA is bunch of politically incorrect extremists, and second just because someone is a vegan, vegetarian or animal rights activist doesn't mean that can't wear FAKE fur. They're not against the style, they're against the killing of an animal for it's pelt, fake fur doesn't support that industry.
Why would you wear a fake fur to your PETA meeting? Seriously .... fashion no no
i agree with number 1 - why would you wear that shit if your an activist?
You want to know something cool? Fur looks great, especially as an accent/lining/hem/whatever. Or rather, the look you get with fur and the things like it is great. You don't need fur to do this. You can achieve this with synthetic materials.
Yes. The look is okay. I've said it. Personally I don't care if it's real fur or not (I actually have a teddy bear with real fur), but the point is, if it had started out as merely a synthetic material it still would have looked great. However, it did not. It is unfortunate that you can't escape the mental image of puppy blood whenever you see faux fur, but that would be your problem (and that of those like you), not anyone else's.
And it has nothing to do with the look, it has to do with the fact that animals are killed to make that look when it can be achieved with other materials. If you truly believe that everybody thinks that the look of fur itself is wrong because it carries a message, you're a little bit ... tweaked ... in the head. Yes, it carries unfortunate implications if you care to see them, but the point is that faux fur is not trying to imitate dead puppies because they think it's cool but don't want blood on their hands. It's a style that doesn't require dead puppies to make; therefore, why do it?
It's like... you want to get from point A to point B, right? There are two ways to get there and one of them will hit a lot of people's moral buttons. Why put blood on your hands when you don't have to?
On the other hand, this can also be used to say real fur is better...why bother using expensive materials when you can just kill a few puppies?
In any case, OP, FYL. It's really quite terrible when a misunderstanding leads to a ruined item that was costly (whatever the cost may have been, in this case money). Especially an item like that. =P

#310/craaaackaddict summed it up nicely as well.
"They're not against the style, they're against the killing of an animal for it's pelt, fake fur doesn't support that industry."
I hate PeTA with a fiery passion, but I don't see the appeal of fake-dead-animal to someone who is supposedly so vehemently opposed to it.
Either you're lying, or you're a hypocrite.
If that would've been me, there would have been a bunch of PETA members lying on the ground clutching their broken noses.
fuck PETA, seriously. what a bunch of fucking douchebags
PETA's fucking stupid. sue their asses.
for some reason this one just ticked me off. im saying this in the utmost disgust for PETA that they can go suck a fat, slobbery, rancid, smelly, nasty, green, rotten chode and one day feel the huge dick of society penetrate their dumbass ways of protecting animals. i swear if i see another one of those "im not a nugget" stickers with the chicken on it im going to fuckin blow ass on all of your mediocre faces. enough said :]
You're life is fucked...PETA are a bunch of maniacs.
You should get them to pay for your coat. Seriously. Those people are insane - I'm all for animal rights but that organization needs to be shut down.
Fascist PETA members make me ashamed to be vegetarian.
#6 Wow, how ignorant is that? It's not real fur, so get over it. It's not hurting anyone.
Furthermore, what right does PETA have ruining other people's possessions? I'm with #322, PETA makes me ashamed to be a vegetarian.
YDI for being an animals right activist/ veagan
PETA is to extreme. So if I don't agree with them should I start pelting them with raw hamburger?
Actually I know someone who did that after she and her friends got doused with paint and spit on. She was the only one in faux fur the rest weren't even wearing anything with fur or animal skin resemblance. They just got it for being associated with her apparently. She's not pro or anti fur she really has no stance on the subject. After it happened though they got so pissed off they bought a bunch of really cheap bulk hamburger and went back and pelted the PETA people with it. It was childish yes, but I won't say I didn't find it laughable.
PETA is over the top and out of hand though. It's one thing to stand up for what you believe in, it's another to abuse a human being who had nothing to do with the abuse of an animal. Ya they probably didn't know it was faux, still they're out of control.
I dont even need to say what I wanted to cuz 90% of the ppl here said it already, and since you're an animal right activist wouldnt you have seen them when walking into the store? Try harder the next time youmake something up dumb ass and so are all the ppl who believed this.
what are we supposed to do with the fur after we eat the animals? fuck PETA i wooda gotten real blood and poored it on them, they need to worry about dying and abused dogs ands shit not on animals that we need to eat to survive
peta doesnt get shit done as a group they just protest and ruin peoples clothes with red shit, people need to help out animals as individuals, make sure niggers arent dog fighting and shit, assholes. Take care of your animals or homeless dogs out in the city, throw them some scraps or something.
serves you right for being a vegan and an animal rights activist.
HUG. THEM.
Spreads the red paint right back all over them. Then just keep hugging them until the cops show up and you can file charges.
;)
i'm an animal lover (not like that). i think that most PETA members are dicks.
Everyone but PETA members thinks they're dicks. Attacking someone with fake blood isn't just rude. It's illegal, and you could easily get them for harrasment, assault (yes, they will charge you with assault for throwing liquids at someone), and maybe damaging personal property.
I f*ng hate PETA members..
Wow, this confirms my belief that PETA members are the most worthless sacks of sh*t imaginable...Someone should take a huge amount of real blood to one of their conventions and dump it all over them or something...
well I hope you called the cops and had them arrested
thats why i carry my jackknife
PETA,
Where the hell do you guys get this hippie, liberal, commie propaganda. I’d sure like to believe that there are not people out there stupid enough to write this shit, let alone believe the stuff that you guys say. Ok, so maybe I got off on the wrong foot, let me tackle every autistic claim of yours one by one and respond to it to let you know what the truth of the situation is. But before I go any further, I assume that you might be ignorant and closeminded enough as to stop reading this email half-way through for one reason or another, but I would like you to hear me out and respond to this (assuming you can formulate a sentence that isn’t 110% bullshit, this assumption I base off what I’ve read on your site.). I am sympathetic with you time restraints so I will make this brief as to not interfere with your ostrich fondling schedule.
make sure your fake fur is actually fake fur. then if it is i dont see why you couldn't wear it. sue those dumb PETA bitches who messed up your jacket b/c they totally assaulted you.
If they did that to me I would have fucking knocked them out
most faux fur is made of dog hair.
wow. PETA is way out of their heads... their leader is too crazy... (watched their documentary). She looks like Paul McCartney.
wow
PETA sucks ass
they shouldnt destroy other's property
they shouldbe fined for that
This smells like a fake FML to me. Overused and perfectly ironic...plus you can definitely sue their asses off for the cost.
PETA is a batshit crazy extremist group anyways. For people that care about so animals they sure love to kill a ton of the adopted pets they receive. There's not a lot of things I hate more than PETA.
That's so counterproductive...
If rich people don't give a shit about fur coats and you destroy it... they're just going to buy more.
therefore killing more animals.
ANYWAY I agree with the first comment.
You deserved it.
#347 - On 04/25/2009 at 12:59pm by evilteriyaki301
God, I fucking hate PETA, so I feel for you, but why would you wear fur even if it's fake if you're supposedly an animal-rights activist?
Sue PETA's ass!
Although you shouldn't be wearing fake fur if your an animal rights activist
i am a guy not a big guy but i was wearing a brand new jacket that looks like its made from snowfox fur its not but it was expensive some peta or whatever people dumped stuff on my i grabbed the nearest thing which happeed to be a wooden restaraunt chair and proceded to break 7 till i was done then paid the restarant $200 for damages
there is no such thing as faux fur. its probably DOG. Read up on it. sad sad sad.
PETA people are assholes.
cant you call the cops on them like as a domestic disturbance or something anyone can at least think of one
#353 - On 04/26/2009 at 8:50pm by ihavenothingtodo
you desrve it, you're a hypocrite its like if you hate when a band sings a song, but love a cover bands version of it even if its exactly the same. not fml f*** our society for being like you, sympathetic towards you.
Well you aren't much of an animal rights activist wearing fake fur... :/
#355 - On 04/26/2009 at 10:42pm by _mcs_
PETA is freakin crazy. End of story.
#356 - On 04/26/2009 at 10:49pm by _mcs_
you should all get tatoos on your foreheads so that other people can avoid you
PeTA are group of hypocrites that kill 96% of the animals they"rescue". Google that shit.Its true and the paperwork is on the net for anyone to see.
although it's kinda dumb to be wearing faux fur if you don't like real fur, PETA is a bunch of assholes, and I guess fur is good for cold weather, I suppose it depends on whether or not you support it or not
idk, personally ive always thought that fake fur is almost worse than real fur. Its like saying, "i would wear real fur if i could afford it...u because i cant, i'll just support the trend by wearing this." YDI.
PETA members should be executed.
if you are an animal rights activist then why didn't you know that there was a PETA demonstartion that day and why weren't you with them?
360, be fair, animal rights activists come in more than one variety, at least one of which is only slightly crazy. A fair number of them actually hate PETA as much, if not more than, the average person.
HA HA HA HA HA HA! More proof of how retarded most animal activists are, especially fuckin PETA.
Why are you buying expensive faux-fur jackets anyways? What does it do for you? It demonstrates your idiocy and the fact that you think fashion is important. PETA did a good thing dumping paint on you, even if it's not real fur it's still symbolizing the fact that you value fashion over your morals. PETA gets a bit extreme sometimes and doesn't do all of their research, but I have to agree with them on dumping paint on people who wear fur, in this day and age there is NO reason to wear fur.
Global warming = no fur, faux or not.
But PETA encourages people to eat fake meat, Boca for example, fake milk, soy, and than bash people who wear faux fur.
Irony at it's best.
I am a fan of PETA, if you mean People Eating Tasty Animals. Otherwise, I think they're retarded.
Saying this, there's some advice for those against PETA and vegetarianism. For every one animal they do NOT eat, you eat three. That way, there's no incentive for them to be prickish. Meat may be murder, according to PETA, but it's delicious, delicious murder!
YDI.....now you know better than to be a vegan and an animal rights activist. Lesson learned. Now move on. PETA and its members are not the sharpest knives in the drawer. Should have sued them or had them arrested for assault and gotten your jacket paid for.
omg id punch their tits in!!! thts well out of order!!!!
I heard about PETA doing stuff like this...no matter what, they through red liquid on anyone who had fur on, many of them were fake furs >.< I mean, some people wear fur because it really keeps you warm, even fake fur, I mean, its really good! PETA is pretty extreme...in the bad way
I agree with #1 why would you perpetuate a style you abhor?
#371 - On 05/14/2009 at 7:30pm by pianodoctor
sue their asses for assault
you know most 'fake' fur is still made of dog... well its like part dog part polyester
Maybe try explaining to then?
Haha wow fuck PETA. They r a bunch if homos n lesbos. They jus destroyed ur property. Next time carry round son brass knucks n I don believe u will have a problem nemore
#19 What the poster I assume you are replying to meant (You didn't give a number... newb) is that the "faux" fur she was wearing was still made of real fur. It was probably listed as, like, faux cheetah fur or just any fur in general. What "faux" means by definition is "not the original product". The faux fur here was not cheetah fur, but instead probably dog fur.
To the op: PeTA is a bunch of firebombing extremists. To me, their actions are no different than those of Felice Orsini (PeTA destroys research with bombs, he was trying to kill Napoleon III with bombs, but still) and they should all go and get raped by dolphins. Several times. Violently. Then we'll see who still supports animal rights, and who would like to try an 8oz Filet Minon.
:D
thats retarded. the dumbass PETA needs to mind their own damn business
you can sue in small claims court for the money of your coat, embaressment, and assualt.
PETA makes me want to eat live cow babies and kick cute baby kitties. their tactics are absurd. destroying fur that is being worn by someone who loves it just means that the animal has now died in vain because it's remains have been ruined.
YDI for being an animal rights activist
This is what concealed carry permits are for. I prefer a Smith and Wesson .45 M+P myself.
I really don't like how PETA deals with things either. I'm all for the cause though. I'm vegatarian myself just because I don't like the thought of killing animals. I agree we were made to eat meat, we need the Iron found in meat, which is why I don't go like "OMFG WTF EATING MEAT IS WRONG LOL YOUR GUYS ARE DUM GO VEGETARIAN/VEGAN!@!@!!$#%#@$#!" It's your choice and my words won't stop you.
I don't agree with people eating more meat then they would because of vegatarians though
YDI for being an animal rights activist
#387 stole the words right out of my mouth. except I was going to say vegan too
Well your just a royally stupid person arent you?
that's why i dnt like when ppl are too extreme about a cause b/c they act out of stupidity!!
I swear I would of hit the person who did this....
