So my fiance and I were watching the Diamonds Are Forever music video (by Kanye) and he asked me, that if I was given a diamond necklace, and I knew where it had came from, how children had slaved over mining it, would I still wear the necklace?

I actually thought over it, but I couldn't answer. pinch.gif


So, same question. Would you buy a diamond necklace (or watch, whatever) if you knew that children had been through so much pain mining it?

Well I love jewelry so I probably would buy it.. I mean it is the governments fault that the children have to work like that to get some money to feed their families so Ill leave the politics to them... Sorry if that was rude but opinions are opinions
