With everything going on in this world you are worried about a bunch of strays?  Heck its China Erica.  They will then eat the animals.  Just because you love your Tabitha or Pokey doesn't mean they don't love MooShu Cat.  Meat is meat and thats that.   How would you feel if they were eating the animals for food yet just threw the fur away as waste?  That would be a waste.  Now go out there and worry about real things not the foods people choose to eat and the ways they utilize the waste products.  Heck we praise the native americans for their use of animal bones in other applications as conservationists yet the chinese are pet killers with no soul.  <br><br>signed<br>A member of PETA<br>People Eating Tasty Animals ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[wgd351]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 12th 2009 2:29PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</guid><description><![CDATA[Glad you explained it this way. The blurb on facebook makes it sound like people who want to find you will have to type your username in the search box, which is NOT easier than your own name.<br>But still...myspace is lame. FB is already getting sad what with trying to be twitter. Hopefully this will work.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jessi]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 12th 2009 8:45AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</guid><description><![CDATA[Twitter and facebook have teamed up.

It started as a social networking site for college students, and that's what it should have remained! Facebook was nothing like Myspace, and that was always its appeal. Your friends saw "John Smith" and they knew who you were...now what??? They see user-name "Bballstarrr333" and they're supposed to know who that is?! I think not. The changes Facebook is making are out of control and beyond stupid, and especially...I think they'll regret this one.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[roseec]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 12th 2009 8:51AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</guid><description><![CDATA[two words: i agree]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mincchr]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 12th 2009 4:20PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</guid><description><![CDATA[Ditto!!!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[pjdhowell]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 12th 2009 4:48PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</guid><description><![CDATA[I AGREE, There is to much nonsense connected with facebook now.

I joined Facebook because you generally knew who you were looking for and with whom you were talking. It was much more safe and public. Less people are willing to misbehave and do things that are not acceptable if it is public. Now they can hide behind a URL. My older kids have been allowed to use it for the features of a more family oriented atmosphere. I think that they may lose many people over this especially families that are on it.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[acrane0325]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 12th 2009 6:09PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</guid><description><![CDATA[Parents please watch your teens if they have a Facebook account. There is a spot on Facebook called the "Bathroom Wall" that allows teens to post short stroies. Some of these stories are pornographic. It would also be an easy place for a predator to scope out a teen. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[David]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 12th 2009 9:03AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</guid><description><![CDATA[yep! better watch out for those darn teens and their internets.  honestly, if your child is stupid enough to write pornographic stories or meet someone from a networking site, don't blame the site, blame yourself for raising your kid to be that dumb.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[nigga]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 12th 2009 5:37PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</guid><description><![CDATA[Xanga will ALWAYS be better than facebook, no matter what changes they make.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Violet]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 12th 2009 9:34AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</guid><description><![CDATA[I've been on myspace since 2004 and I've just recently got a Facebook. I don't like it AT ALL! I get requests to applications all day long that I've blocked a billion times. I see when my friends comment on other peoples crap, which is stupid. I don't like how I can't make my page nice or with music. I just don't like FB at all. So this big change means absolutely nothing to me. I think all these networking sites are pointless for some. I know most of my friends have 3 or more sites! And what's really funny is that they have the same friends they do on another site. lol! I got rid of my facebook. Kept my myspace and still don't respond to my friends' stuff. I CALL THEM. Which probably irritates them but I'm old fashioned and I like personal communication. Don't ask me how I'm doing when you have my phone number!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[cher822]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 12th 2009 9:55AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</guid><description><![CDATA[lol nice one]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[gapchick20042000]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 12th 2009 2:49PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</guid><description><![CDATA[I totally agree with you about Facebook.

I have not joined any of these spaces<br>due to just this fact. I do not like sharing infomation that someone else can get a hold of. I realize it is the senders responsibility but I have seen to many bad things<br>come out of these different social nets no disrespect to your usage to have one of my own. Anyway thank you for your comment.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[carlalfrey]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 12th 2009 6:48PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</guid><description><![CDATA[They should have explained this better in the little pop on everyone's homepage. Getting a username means that your URL will be customizable. So I give my facebook URL to someone so they can go directly to my page. For instance if my name was Jane Doe, my URL could be http:/ / www. facebook.com/janedoe. That's all it is. No one you know will have a new name like "ii jUst B3 LuVIn Muh LiiiifEE 2009." Unless they want that as their URL. But you shouldn't be friends with those people anyway.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[frenchfry555]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 12th 2009 10:02AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/06/11/facebook-launches-personal-urls-finally/</guid><description><![CDATA[All that Japanese junk on it scared me off.
