Right about what?  I asked her to document her unfounded statements about the Chicago ordinance and the underlying reasons for it.  I gave a detailed account from the Chicago Tribune to support my view that when the ordinance was introduced, there was little concern about animal cruelty.  You cite a Humane Society of the US web article about California, neither illuminating the debate nor citing a reliable, unbiased source.  Right about what, I ask.

That foie gras was banned in California.

But I never asked her about that statement.  What California did or didn't do is entirely irrelevant. My question to her was -- and is -- that she back up her statements about the CHICAGO ordinance.  She has ascribed motives to the Chicago City Council that are not backed by the record, and I simply have asked her to justify it.  So no, she didn't get anything "right".  The Chicago Ordinance is the subject of this thread, and of ALL of my posts in it.

Nefartari:  Until you posted this childish response, I thought maybe you had something going for you.  Clearly you are a fabricator and immature, and any good points you could have made you've destroyed with this reply.  I asked you to document something you said, and your reply shows you simply lie and run when you are caught.

First of all, you misread my comments and ascribed them yourself to the Chicago Ordinance.  I have no knowledge of the Chicago Ordianance and never claimed to.  The current trend and activism, however, for banning foie gras is because of the cruelty involved and is why California and other countries have banned it.

I explained that I am tired of people being contrary for the sake of it.  That comment you made about ordering foie gras (which you don't think they serve) and the others you made proved you really don't give a rat's ass.  Your comment was childish and I chose not to continue the conversation.

However, when one points that out you respond in an immature matter you turn and call them a liar and accuse them of running, when in actuality you have made an ass out of yourself by misinterpreting someone's words and then going on the warpath.

This thread is of a topic near and dear to my heart and I have no desire to get all worked up over people wanting to be difficult.

Edited to add - all of your posts may have been regarding the Chicago Ordinance, but not all of the posts in this thread have been strictly related to it.  The post you questioned was my post in response to benji's.  So get off your high horse.

The only leather I wear comes from a shop here in Ohio that uses leather from animals that lived in the wild and died of natural causes. 


Does the shop actually show proof of this? it sounds like total bull unless they happen to have a cow farm in the backyard, If I had a leather shop i'd tell people this just so I can charge a little more.


Bold added  by me.

Not to pick on you per se... but your comment here is what is wrong with the world.  I believe our government uses this idea quite a bit to sell us the crap we end up voting for cause we believe what they are telling us to be true.

Lucklily, there are some honest, caring people left in the world.  Just they are few and far between.


...so you just used my post to interject a totally unrelated opinion for really no reason at all?.....okay, whatever lets you sleep at night.

Nasty, nasty.

Don't worry, folks--it's only 119 days till Christmas.




LaTigresse -> RE: Chicago Bans Goose Liver (8/28/2006 1:26:31 PM)

Begin fattening ye ole Christmas goose.




gooddogbenji -> RE: Chicago Bans Goose Liver (8/28/2006 1:28:50 PM)
