RaisinCain Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 People who think this is "OK" are frickin' sick! They might be dead, but they are still human beings. Do that with the dead from New Orleans? Think not... frickin' sicko's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+E.Worm Jimmy Subscriber¹ Posted September 16, 2005 Subscriber¹ Share Posted September 16, 2005 Is this any different than someone donating organs, i.e. heart, kidney, etc? Of course, this prisoners were never consulted after they died. i honestly dont get what is all the fuss about. i am sure the collagen is extracted safely and there is no risk at all. this is in no way more disgusting then the cosmetics made out of placenta (a membranous vascular organ that develops during pregnancy, lining the uterine wall and partially enveloping the fetus, to which it is attached by the umbilical cord) at least this ones are made from processed skin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yochanan Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Oh no, not dead human skin! We like our toxic chemicals and industrial waste on our face and in our toothpaste, that's fine, and we don't mind the products being tested on mice and rabbits, but don't test it on or use dead human skin! :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because alot of them spoke out against the mainstream central gov't. Tianemen Square ring a bell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both are organs (many forget the skin is an organ) and both come from people. This of course assumes that the placenta is from a human source. Now from a moral standpoint there might be a difference, but that all depends on whether the woman in question willingly gave up the placenta for use in cosmetics. The prisoners in all likelyhood of course were not willing participants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People get imprisoned for a reason, the reason may be obsene but nevertheless a reason, in China you could put in jail for practicing FaLun Gung, it may seem stupid but it's a law. At least China don't let rapists or murderers off a jail sentence or perhaps have the nerve to allow a thief to sue the people they were trying to rob. You even got Tiananmen spelt wrong, which doesn't really surprise me, considering people like to through falsified information around without having a strong argument. The dead skin issue may seem abit gross but is it considered unethical? What difference does it make if it was from a living person or dead person. Though personally I probably won't buy the product, it's more of a human nature to reject such information. If nobody actually knew abuot this, would people still buy it? Ignorance is bliss.

BGraceTFaith Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 Personally I like to "throw" around facts, they tend to hold more weight. And I would prefer an "argument" over an "arguement" any day. The latter just has too many extra letters to contend with. :whistle: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
