hi, im just writing here about all the hate ive seen on the internet against furries. it really makes me sad, and when i make my fur suit im heading straight for twitch, youtube, vine you name it to express my anger about this. i hear stories about self harm suicide and its just like wow really why would you drive someone to that, the furfandom community is the nicest thing you could find why would you even want to. *sigh*. i even heard one story about someone releasing some kinda gas at a convention and i nearly cried for god sake. well my rants over let me know what you think </3.

well best thing to do is look at positive stuff and please for the love of everything

DON'T SAY WHAT WE ARE BY WHAT WE ARE NOT

by that i mean dont go around trying to remove all the stuff that we have seen dont even go to someone and say only x% of are are into m\using our suits for adult rated content (in the bed type content here) trust me that never works look at pittsburgh and how they so love us

taking something that happened at anthrocon here

uncle kage had his guest of honor one year on tv and someone in a husky suit went behind a fursuiter and started doing inappropriate things so uncle kage (chairman of anthrocon we all know him as uncle kage) went up behind said person took them down or something and gave them to security and they got booted all this while the news crew was recording later that night when they news was on him and his wroufurance friends where watching and trying to stop uncle kage from hurting himself as it came on they stopped and watched as you see the suiter come up behind and it cuts to the dealers den while audio is happening and cut back and you see the huskie suiter fly off camera.

rest of that story u have to find in a furries in the media panel

and yes the gas incident was midwest furfest 2014 its my understanding that its a ongoing investigation

again ill say this

DONT SAY WHAT WE ARE BY WHAT WE ARE NOT

yea

found the statment from mwff this is what they stated

http://www.furfest.org/?q=evacuation_statement

“At around 12:45 AM on Sunday, December 7, the Hyatt Regency O’Hare received a complaint of a chemical odor on the ninth floor. Following a 9-1-1 call, first responders determined that a container with a chlorine-containing chemical was broken there. At 1:10 AM the entire hotel was evacuated, first across Bryn Mawr Ave. in front of the Hyatt as per Rosemont Fire Department’s standard procedures, then when it became apparent that the wait would take longer the Stephens Convention Center was opened to provide warmth and shelter to our guests. A full HazMat response was called in at that time.
In the course of investigating the scene, the Rosemont Police Department determined that this was a criminal act and began investigating it as such. This delayed allowing our guests back into the hotel. Midwest FurFest is deeply thankful for the cooperation and patience shown during this time, and please know that everyone was working to get you back into the hotel as quickly as possible. At 4:21 AM the all-clear was given and we worked with the Hyatt staff to return all of our guests to the hotel in the quickest and safest manner possible.

it is a ongoing investigation and was a criminal act the full statement again is linked

also want to see us come together lemonade coyote and that incident there where suiters hugging people for warmth that didnt have jackets or anything

it is because people are scared or afraid of things they don't understand its in our nature to be afraid of things we don't get i mean say if you saw a alien you would be scared of it all thou it is probably completely harmless im not defending haters all im saying is that natural their confused but they lack the ability to research anything them self unless their told by someone they trust but when you get someone that researches they stop and might even become a fur i know the first time i heard of furs was from a heater and hear i am and i agree it is absolutely appalling that they push people to suicide but they don't mean it its just because the only way for them to feel comfortable in a new situation is to attack but if you do make videos state all thoes fact and don't be too angry because otherwise they'll ignore you and shout at the screen thinking that your proving them wright because your getting angry if someone posts a hateful comment stay calm and do a shout out with a collection of hateful comments this will make some people that are kind go on your side.
