Public perceptions about the morality of fur are changing

interesting poll:

It was publicized by Gallup May 19, 2008.

Apperently this is the first time the change went beyond the 5% stat. sig buffer, which is why Gallup hadn't remarked on it before.

"(Changes of fewer than five percentage points are not statistically significant.)....[Compared with 2001, Americans] have become less accepting of animal fur for clothing -- although the majority still support [it]." http://www.gallup.com/poll/107380/Cultural-Tolerance-Divorce-Grows-70.aspx

[Fur] is Morally Acceptable
2001: 60%
2008: 54%
Change: -6%

[Fur] is Morally Wrong
2001: 32%
2008: 39%
Change: +7%

So, people are not just removing their support of fur and becoming neutral, but are actually reversing their moral posistion.

We're winning...at least in America.

Here's a more in-depth break down on the 2001-2007 data:
