I contacted ShopNBC about their selling of Fur products many from rabbit fur and received a disappointing callous response.
Basically the bottom line is if they want to buy it we'll give it to them.
It's a bit hypocritical because there are many products that people buy that are not part of Shop NBS obviously ShopNBC has discretion in what they sell and they can chose to sell it or not.
They are part of the greedy anything goes mentality. It it sells and makes us rich. we'll sell it.
I suggest if you are just as disgusted with this greedy heartless mental BOYCOTT ANYTHING NBC. NBS shows that they do not believe in corporate responsibility.
Con tat them and let them know why
Here is my e-mail and their response.
BTW: She says "Thank You For Shopping" which is funny because I don't shop there and never will and as much as I can I will educate people about ShopNBC and their callous participation in the bloody brutal business of animals torture.

I would respectfully ask you to stop selling furs. Most of these furs come from China. These animals, rabbits, cats, dogs and other are kept in abominable conditions without food or water and often skinned alive. This is not difficult to research and millions of people are becoming more aware of this. Armani had promised to stop using animal skins/fur and gone back on his promise. I am saddened that in this day and age, these cruel products are still promoted fur, rabbit fur as part of your catalog. Please stop. |
