Real World Question

        Imagine yourself at a fancy gala where everyone is dressed in big furry animal print clothing that probably cost more than my college tuition. Now picture the group off individuals stationed outside of that gala. Who are they? That’s right animal rights activists protesting the poor treatment of those animals that lives were taking to make that elaborate clothing that 90% of the party guests are wearing. There are others who wear animal skin clothing. For example, Motorcycle riders where leather made from animals. However, you don’t see animal rights activists running through the streets to protests against their clothing choices. Why is this? Is it perhaps that they are afraid of those tough motorcycle riders or maybe they think that going after the higher class society is going to give them more media coverage. Perhaps, they think it’s okay that motorcycle riders wear leather as a protection when riding as opposed to the fancy gala people who only wear for pleasure.  Or it could be that animal right activists don’t care about animals like pigs and goats that’s skin is used for leather. All are very possible options for animal rights activists’ choice of protest.

Animal rights activists act as if they are strong individuals that can take on anything. In reality they are scared that if they approach the wrong group of animal skin lovers it might not end well. They think they’ll end up getting hurt because motorcycle riders are much more intimidating than furry coat gala attendees. Admittedly so the higher society is not nearly as intimidating. What are they going to do put their protest in the media? I have to admit; they do look scary but if you truly wanted to get your word out you would approach anymore that wears animal skins regardless of their uprising. Being in the tabloids is exactly what the animal right activist want. The more attention they get the better. Therefore, the upper class is a perfect target. Motorcyclists are not in the news nearly as much as the Kardashians. Getting in the paper is the best and easiest way to spread the word and it sure spreads fast. After all those activists are pretty smart. However, if I were them I would get after anyone that I saw in animal skins. I think a group of people chasing motorcycles down the road would be great headliner. Unfortunately, that doesn’t sound safe so maybe the gala is a better location.
