Persuasive speech outline
Introduction
In general, as a class, if we were lock down here with some more students, how long you guys can stay here? Second, mins, hours, days or month? Now how hard can you pinch yourself? Does it hurt? If we were to ask each of you guys how you feel if someone were to peel off your skin while you guys were alive together in a room, would you allow it? How would you feel? Or would you prefer if someone peels off your skin while you are dead? Well, most of us might not want either option to happen to us. These are just few samples of how animal are suffering for unnecessary need of human being. However, little do we know that this happens to animal’s everyday when people shave off their fur to make coats, begs and other things for us?
Proposition
Animal fur should be banded because it’s not right to kill animal brutally for us to look just good and also a name of fashion.
Division
First I describe history of using fur and how it’s different now. Next I will talk about the facts of using animal for fur and how they killed animal for name of fashion.
Contentions
Let me list the objections which support the proposition for why animal fur should be banned because its crime to killed animal for name of fashion. 1. It is unnecessary to take life of animal for fashion. 2. Animal negligence – starved. 3. Fur farms constitute institutionalized cruelty. 4. There are other options if you want to get a fur. 5. Just remember your clothing used to be alive. 6. Killing animals for their fur is just cruel and wrong.

Transition: today I can’t argue all five contentions because of time, so I’m going to argue three of them which all include why we shouldn’t kill animal for fur.
Animal fur is one of the oldest types of clothing, that animals have been killed for years and years in order to provide clothing for human beings. From the history, it can be seen that animal fur was one of the clothes material for our old ancestors because that time there was no more developed technology like we do today. In 21st century, technology has been developed very well that we do not have to use animal fur anymore, because if you really like to wear animal fur, you can get a faux fur, which is fake fur but looks and fells similar like real fur. If you even compared faux fur with the real fur, faux fur is much better. First it’s come in design Second its just looks same and even better than real fur. Third it will keep you warm. Fourth it cost much less then real fur. Fifth especially for girls you can get nice looking faux fur from your favorite or famous stores like Forever 21, target, Macy , and if you like online shopping. These are some sites you could also get them including shopstyle, fabulousfurs and nextag. Faux fur coats are considered to be the best way to look stylish while keeping warm.

Killing animals for their fur is just cruel and wrong. How would you feel if someone ripped the skin off of you and decided to make a coat out of you? According to People for the Ethical Treatment, AnimalsThe animal fur farm in china, animal was kept in wire cages, beat them brutally before skin them alive. The most honorable things to see is that after they skinned animal, most of the animal alive for 10 to 12 min. some of the sign of their alive is blinking eye with tears, you can see and hear the heart beats from their exposed chest. They suffer horribly just for us to look and feel good in their skin. Would you let them do it to you even you didn’t do any harm to them. Its goes similar to the poor animal who can’t speak like we do and show their pain.

Killing animals takes away millions of life in farms and in wild. According to the “Orange Country People for Animals (OCPA)” organization, it was noticed that 50 million animals are killed so that their fur can be used by the fashion industry. Moreover, 130,000 animals slaughtered every day just so that someone else can wear their coats, hats, bag, shoes and many more. Killing animals in order to skin their fur is absolutely hurting living creature.

Conclusion
If you still like the look and feel of real fur, there is another option. Instead of wearing real fur, you could wear faux fur. Faux fur is fake fur and it’s much cheaper than real fur. And most of all animal don’t have to suffer or killed brutally. So next time you think about buying a real fur coat, think again because no animal should ever lose its life just for us to look feel good because they are already sacrificing their life for our daily basic need which is food.
