It's murder to the people that consider the consumption of animal products murder. Not that I am one of those persons. Really though your analogy doesn't equate because the production of a saddle (and the subsequent death necessary for its creation) is done for an entirely different set of reasons than a bear killing humans. At least I assume so, the bear probably wasn't making them into saddles, of course if he was then it would change.


But whether or not either action is legitimate is relative to the person passing judgement.


in regards to the OP:

I would say my brooks saddle is significantly more comfortable than my other saddles, but I do not ride a fizik which is rumored to be the bee's knee's.
