do you think it's okay to kill animals for art?

i do not support it, but it's not different than what society already does. people kill animals for fashion. shoes, belts, coats, ect. people kill animals for meat. these things are 'okay'. not only okay, but something people want. people hunt for sport then go stuffing the bodies and heads of animals to hang them on a wall.

we don't need meat to live. we don't have to wear real fur, you could wear faux fur...none of them are necessary. you could live without meat. art isn't necessary to live. however, she could of used a different way to get her point across, such as painting,

if she killed any animal but 'cute fluffy things' would anyone even care? if she used spiders, ants, roaches, i doubt anyone would think there was even an issue.

my my... where to start.

1- just because there is no law that says you can't kill animals is excatly why this shouldn't be stopped.

2. on the topic of vegitarianism-
- yes, eating a completely vegan diet can be healthy, if done right
- this requires eating a lot of various plants, which is where the rigid diet comes in. you could eat multivitamins for some vitamins, but for others and for certain amino acids, you have to eat a lot of certain plants.
- this should not be done for moral reasons, as the morality of killing animals is that they are animals and not HUMANS so they don't have HUMAN rights.

3. on the art-

art should not be censored. this is art. taxadermists stuff animals all the time. mice and cats are quite common... they'll be killed anyways in shelters. (don't mention no-kill shelters, those are terrible. they're streched too thin and all the animals suffer... )
