Hehe, reminds me of a question I once heard.
Why does PETA picket fur and not leather?

Little old rich ladies are easier to picket than bikers.

Personally, my only issue with fur is that in many cases, the animals are grown exclusively for their fur, throwing the rest away. With leather, I get to eat the animal too. Doesn't make a lot of sense, I know, but to me it does. Maybe I'm part indian or something.
