the constant hate and bullying around furries have gotten out of hand.  Many people are sending death threats and some are even taking action upon those death threats towards furries. Many a Time, it is used as an insult, when in reality it should be used as a compliment.  furries are amazing and creative people who just want to have fun and are some of the most inclusive loving people that you'll ever meet. Recently a couple of furries have taken their own lives such as mystdingo, fluffygoosh, indigo raptor, etc. we get called names all the time and get barked at, had death threats every day, are told to kill ourselves, and just outright bullied and assaulted. we just want to dress up as cute little animals doing silly little things. Sometimes even our fursonas are our coping mechanism.  most furries are known to have depression anxiety personality disorders and other mental health issues.  if we could just try and put out there what's true about furries and negate what is actually incorrect about them, the world would just be a better place. no, we don't think were animals. no, we don't want to do it to animals.
