[TheForge] Meat eating and PETA..OT

These people are insane and or hippocras.
First I would ask them let me see your belts, shoes, wallets, car seats
ect...
If any of them are leather they are Hippocrates.
If they are all plastic or synthetic (which I doubt) They are insane. The
amount of chemicals used and discarded to produce those products has to be
worse for world that using leather. And that's not even talking about what
the disposal of these products do to landfills.
Or, don't they care about the environment?
