Don't they have better things to do with their legislative time than this?

Good grief. The things people obsess over.

We should be able to kill animals to indulge our vanity.

Seems like it was a pretty simple vote. Took next to no time and was popular in their state. Honestly, seems like the people obsessing over it are people from outside the state that it doesn't even affect.

Because really stupid ideas here become really stupid ideas elsewhere, which is why so many people are leaving this hell hole they have created.

If Jockey only knew how many products he and his family use daily involving dead animals.

I know you are being snarky ( I do it enough to be able to recognize it), but eating is about life. The world’s agriculture could not support vegan-ism if everyone ate no meat.

I have no problem with hunters who eat their prey. People who kill elephants for the tusk while letting the rest of these majestic animals rot can burn in h@ll.

I remember making the mistake of wearing a leather bomber jacket to a protest a few decades ago.  A flower child forgot about our common purpose in order to accost me about meat being murder. Me laughing at her did not improve her opinion of me.

With you. Eating meat is for sustenance and survival.  Wearing fur (almost always animals that not consumed) serves no reasonable or legitimate purpose other than vanity.

So, what legitimate purpose is there for wearing fir? If you’re going say something is just an opinion but you should provide a factual rebuttal to back up your opinion.

I also find it amusing that the people (particularly online) most upset over this couldn’t afford a fir coat anyway. It like the people who openly boycott Chik-Fil-A but don’t live anywhere near one.

Why just fur?  How about leather?  My point is that it is just an opinion. Just like mine.

Who would want a coat made put of pine needles?

What becomes leather is coming from an animal that is also being killed for food (necessary fir sustenance). It’s using the entire animal. Mink, foxes, chinchillas, nutria, they are killed only for their pelts and nothing more.

Never owned one, but I'm told they keep folks warm in extreme cold.

I would be much happier if they would ban needles, pissing and crapping on the sidewalks, and a whole host of other things....but these guys working hard to turn the state around banning straws and fur... progress...

If the states duly elected representatives put this law in place far be it from me to criticize. Now, I wouldn't support it in my state, not because I want to wear I fur(I don't), but because I generally try to avoid laws that tell other people how to live their life when it has no bearing on how I live mine

it doesn't affect?  i hope not.  unfortunately, some things originated in california and continued forward even as they had already failed
