Ok Gordon, the same can be said to you... It is Eleanor's absolute RIGHT to voice her objection about the ferret pelt on Ebay to this list... and If YOU don't want to hear about it, then YOU skip her messages. Same thing can be said about you, trying to take away her/our rights to voice our objection about it. The thing that your missing here is, which was said many times previously, that ferrets are DOMESTICATED animals, such as cats and dogs, and it is Ebay's policy that they will not allow domesticated animal pelts/items for sale on Ebay. That is at the heart of all this. This Ebay seller guy also had foxes, squirrels,.. etc, other wild animal pelts and skeletons for sale. That totally infuriates the livin' heck out of me, and I hate it and I think they are disrespecting those animals. But when I look at the ferret pelt, I think of MY family members - MY FERRETS!!! We have every right to keep voicing our opinions to Ebay and we ought to keep doing it! Dont try to take away our rights!! And once again, Eleanor, THANK YOU for bringing it to our attention!!
