Fur Free Friday

An anonymous coward writes:

This is Fur War

New York City, Nov. 25, 2005

Gassing, trapping and anal electrocution….these are the ways that fur bearers are murdered, before having their skin cruelly ripped off their bodies, often while they are still alive & fully conscious. For what? Money, Greed, Pride, Vanity & Fashion.


Friday November 25, 2005, join Win Animal Rights for one of the most important anti-fur events of the year, Fur Free Friday. On this day, we will continue our on-going campaign as we again confront one of the most notorious fur mongers in New York City, Dennis Basso. Join us and send a loud and clear message to Basso and to all of the other fur scum along NYC's trendy and fashionable Madison Avenue.When it comes to fur, we reserve all of our caring and compassion for the original owners. We waste none of it on the disgusting scum that continue to trade in blood money for skin that doesn't belong to them. We vow to confront every shopper & employee who dares to cross our picket line to shop at Basso or any other furrier. Let's send a message. Fur will no longer be tolerated on the streets of New York.

WHEN: Friday, November 25, 2005

WHERE: Dennis Basso, 765 Madison Ave (at 66 th St.)
