For the rest of you, these links (in Swedish) are a call for a bojcott of the Swedish retail-chain Naturkompaniet , selling outdoor equipment, who has taken on an anti-fur policy, banning all fur products from their shops including rabbit fur and fur from animals killed in hunting.

Thanks for the info. Agree with you that it is a marketing thing to become popular only. Sorry to see that the worst problem in the discusion is not the enemy but the friendly fire.

Their marketing director is a moron.
They sell outdoor clothing for all sorts of activities, hunting, fishing, hiking, etc. And backpacks, tents, boots and whatever. But not guns or fishing rods.
They are anti fur, because a number of activists have mailed them and told them that it is so cruel with fur... And they belive that they will sell more stuff to the town-people this way. They still sell leather-boots etc.
I was just going to ask if they did. I mean sell stuff made of hides without the fluffy stuff on it.. Morons indeed. Next they will be arguing that their leather boots are made from domestic animals. What would you prefer...?
Living free 'till you get a bullet. Or living captive til you get a boltgun. Morons indeed...
