I think they need to go back to throwing dye on fur coats worn by defenseless little old ladies is they want to continue their protests. Motorcyclists won't put up with their crap.besides, the leather commonly used ( in boots, gloves, jackets,pants/chaps or race suits) to protect riders comes from animals ( cows, goats, buffalo, deer, horses) that are slaughtered for their meat. These aren't cute little mink or chinchillas bred and killed for just their fur to support fashion. A riders leather is a very important safety accessory.
This is an account, with photo, of what happened to a member of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) after protesting motorcycle enthusiasts for wearing leather.
