I think it would be funny if all his vegan fans boycotted his shows until he wore something other than leather shoes onstage. Or maybe even refused to go to his shows until he stopped using animal products all together? I dunno. This just popped into my mind
You're only saying that because you're young and everything is clear. As you get older, it changes.

My view is that if an animal is killed, for whatever reason, including meat, you may as well do it the courtesy of using as much of it as possible, so personally, I don't have a problem with a vegetarian wearing leather.
Yes, but PETA don't like people wearing leather. As I've posted before, their (frankly laughable, factually incorrect multiple times) fact sheet on leather is unequivocal. I wonder how PETA squares one of their high-profile supporters wearing leather shoes?
They don't mind if you wear leather or fur...as long as you are homeless.

I know this is old, but Morrissey justifies why he wears leather shoes at the end of this interview.
I don't always expect him to be consistent. After all, he's human and also a rabble-rousing activist. But that's a fairly poor rationale for his wearing leather shoes.
I considered becoming a member of PETA until I saw this:
^^^ Newkirk and the Peta cult members are a bunch of nutters.

Great interview. Whatever happened to that Morrissey? I miss him.
