Refusing to wear a wool kilt because an animal or two died, but turning a blind eye while wearing the alternatives is just as bad as killing, at least in my book, because so much more death is involved in the alternatives.

I am not a vegan, but I am a vegetarian. And we have talked about this before on X-Marks.

Glad to see you here.
Yeah but then you are talking about one wool kilt. If some one were to make one PV kilt or one sporran than the same thing could be said, only an animal or two died. I can't say I am argueing for it, and I can't see hemp kilts in tartan colour showing up anytime soon (or cotton strangely enough?!). But duely noted.

Also thanks everyone for all your help.
