Ugg boots- disgusting

clairefontaine

Not only are they ugly, but their production is disgusting and inexcusably cruel. Its bad enough lamb is on the Christian menu, but this is really beyond tolerance. Watch what you put on your feet ladies.

Warning, video in the article is nauseating and hard to watch.

This treatment is in all walks of life across many different products and foodstuffs.

The world will tick on regardless

Better not tell you where your electronic products and trainers come from then.

The lamb curry is only available on the protestant menu.

However lamb chops are available for Catholics and appear occasionally on the Jedi menu.

I agree on fact that those boots are really disgusting looking no matter what they are made of. Person has to be truly style-blind to buy them.

"See my vest, see my vest,
Made from real gorilla chest.
Feel this sweater, there's no better
Than authentic Irish Setter.
See this hat, 'twas my cat.
My evening wear, vampire bat.
These white slippers are albino
African endangered rhino.
Grizzly bear underwear,
Turtle necks I've got my share.
Beret of poodle on my noodle it shall rest
Try my red robin suit,
It comes one breast or two...
See my vest, See my vest.
Like my loafers, former gophers,
It was that or skin my chauffeurs"

Next they'll be telling us leather is made of cow and burgers are made of horse.

To find out the truth about UGGs and how their products are made, we will take our search to the internet.

I like lamb stew. I also like Shepherd's Pie. The real shepherd's pie. Because shepherds herd sheep not cows.

They are disgusting, impractical, and bad for legs/ankles (zero support in the ankle).

I dont understand why they have only singled out Ugg in this article.

They're horrible looking, but nobody is going to stop me from eating lamb. Om nom nom.

Everyone should definitely eat more lamb.

Lamb is nom-a-nom-anommmm.

Lamb is an Easter tradition. Yeah veal off the menu, while Irish farmers ship them off to the continent, but still eating lamb.

Why aren't you outraged at all the poor turkey deaths in the next few weeks?

Uaru

They carry out a process called mulesing where they cut strips of flesh from live lambs. Whatever about eating them you would still hope they are being treated in a humane fashion before slaughter.

I care how my food is grown and raised before I eat it.

They're fake "Ugg Australia" boots. The real Ugg Australia boots or any well made Ugg boots (Ugg boots are a type of sheepskin boot, not a brand) will not sag like that.

The ones in the picture are not even real sheepskin boots.

What is the point?

The title was about the boots being ugly.
The linked content was about inhumane treatment of animals.
Then there was some comment on religion and eating lamb.

I addressed two of those points.

Nope because I'm on my phone, which is why I didn't comment on that aspect of the post.

I fail to see how it being an Easter tradition has anything to do with a questionable choice of footwear.

So you have no idea what the main point of the thread is?

I don't care how they look or any of the religious **** that is happening rather bizarrely here. That's fairly inconsequential in the grand scheme of things. I also have no problem eating lamb.

Are you just trying to repeat what I said? I'm pretty sure I already said that I commented about the parts I read/saw. No need to repeat that.

What has eating lamb in Ireland got to do with either veal or production methods for UGGs?

. oh, I see! You’re volunteering to go out to get some meat. Not necessary! We have meat here............We have meat here in ze building! (Does cow horns with fingers and makes mooing noises).

Because of the treatment of animals.

Veal in unavailable in Ireland. Sometimes hard to get in the US too, mostly see it in Italian restaurants. It's politically incorrect meat. Yet the irish farmers ship off calves to the continent for slaughter in terrible conditions. But lamb is still a popular dish and the traditional Christian meal at Easter despite the deplorable conditions pre salughter and the methods of slaughter.

And yet ugh boots are everywhere, and the methods for skinning and breeding is disgusting and cruel. Watch the video in the article, if you can stomach it.

What are the deplorable conditions pre slaughter and methods of slaughter of lambs in Ireland?

I watched the video. Nowhere did I question any points you made about it.

You do realise that people of all denominations, and none, eat lamb all year round, don't you? I'm not sure why you're so fixated on Christians and Easter tbh.

Pretty sure I've had veal before in Ireland as well as the US, not quite sure how it'd be considered politically incorrect, it sure as hell wasn't throwing racist abuse my way.

Believe it or not where I grew up rabbit was the traditional easter meal, never had lamb before I came to Ireland. Not particularly popular outside of Ireland and the UK at all.

Agree with this. I know many traditional Navajo shepherds who raise sheep for the mutton. It was a staple in their diet.

You can't beat a nice bit of mutton. More flavour than lamb, but nearly impossible to get these days.
