Happy Holidays Igorites. I'm reposting this from last August because A> Many of you weren't here back then, and B> because I'd already seen the first "Put Christ Back In Christmas" post a week before Thanksgiving! I'm probably at work right now, and you probably just got back from (or are getting ready to go out to) your Black Friday Shopping. If you share any memes this year, this is the one that needs to get out there!

Such a fine, sunny day, and I have to go, but what does my death matter, if through us, thousands of people are awakened and stirred to action?" ~Sophie Scholl's last words, after being condemned to execution by the Nazis for disseminating anti-Nazi propaganda inside Germany. We invite you to ask the same question.

![►►The Fur Industry
Whether it came from an animal on a fur farm or one who was trapped in the wild, every fur coat, trinket, and bit of trim caused an animal tremendous suffering—and took away a life.
Animals on fur farms spend their entire lives confined to cramped, filthy wire cages. Fur farmers use the cheapest and cruelest killing methods available, including suffocation, electrocution, gas, and poison.
More than half the fur in the U.S. comes from China, where millions of dogs and cats are bludgeoned, hanged, bled to death, and often skinned alive for their fur. Chinese fur is often deliberately mislabeled, so if you wear any fur, there's no way of knowing for sure whose skin you're in.
