Shame On You, Urban Outfitters

I received some feedback from a friend about my last post featuring an Urban Outfitters t-shirt. In lieu of recent accusations aimed at the store, I regret featuring an item of theirs and have taken it down. Let me explain:

Urban Outfitters pledged to be a fur-free store after protests from PETA many years ago. However, it has been brought to light that they have not been true to their pledge. Urban Outfitters has allegedly sold real fur labeled as "faux fur." Instead of admitting to their mishap, they have continued to deny it. Here's a great video, explaining the whole situation:
