It's not just about animal rights. It's about human rights. It's about greedy corporations and large western industries. It doesn't stop in China. It's about Western stores buying this. In needs a world wide movement which most are unwilling to participate in. Not just in this but others.
The more you shock though, the more people become upset with you.
So few open minded people nowadays. So very few. They claim to be, but they are not.

Thats just it though. Those that are able to afford such things provide a market. Western society is trained to consume...voraciously. In the west, there are those that find products like this carry a status symbol that states "I have it and you don't". I think, IMO, those that own things like this don't particularly care about how these goods are produced. The "It's made everyday" mentality is quite strong and dulls those to the idea that a price was paid. No guilt, remorse or regret.
As for those who work the production line, They must be some messed up. Bit of a stretch, but it's been said that it starts with small animals...
