There's at least the attempted death of Tumbles the Stairdragon.

My ex also threatened to kill himself during a con weekend once. I called a cop on him, and he backpedaled SO hard during the call and to the cop. I'd greentext for you guys but that's literally all that happened.

Someone accidentally gassed that furry con, I think that just hospitalized people.

If anything starts to give us a body count, it'll be more raves/dances/parties. Not those specifically, but because people do drugs and are then stupid about it and take cut MDMA or overdose.

They're talking about banning raves in LA County after three people died this weekend at Hard Summer, even though honestly it was their fault. Know what you're taking, pace it out, and drink fucking water.

I forget exactly what that accomplished. EDC itself moved to Vegas, but Insomniac, the company who does it, throws a bunch of similar events in San Bernardino and the exact same people show up.

I've been quite a few times now to their events and Insomniac goes WAY WAY out of their way to offer free water and you-wont-be-in-trouble free medical, and people still fuck themselves up. Sadly you can't make someone have self control or discretion.

LA has been trying to ban raves since the mid 90s. The 16 year old that snuck into EDC 2010 and OD'ed was the straw that broke the camels back for LA.

San Bern has also been trying to push Insomniac out, but they would be bankrupt if they didn't have any events at the NOS center.

A guy committed suicide down the road from Animazement in '07. It didn't happen directly at the con but he was an attendee and apparently there was some drama involving him and a cosplayer (unconfirmed, but he apparently mentions her in his note).

There was also this:

It was apparently two cleaners off the janitors cart dumped, mixed, and left in a stairwell. There was argument if it was an accident or not.

I was actually there for the Electric Daisy festival since since I lived 2 blocks away and could hear the music and ppl. Some 14/15 year old girl sneaked in somehow form the back and got hella OD and died. It was a sad death but it was her fault and her parents for not knowing where the hell she went.
>Parents tried to blame the ravers and city
>Ravers just wanted to party to good music
>Daughter shouldn't of done hard drugs if she didn't know what the fuck would happen
>Got sad that the raver scene got a bad name for a year or two cause of it

I was too young to enter to the rave but was outside hearing the music with a few ppl since I knew raves were a whole different world. Now that I am older, it's sad that LA has less raves than before just because that one girl OD.

We had a discussion about this a while ago. The general consensus is that people don't shoot up cons because they're one of the few places where outsider weirdos can feel part of a crowd. Yes the con scene has bitches, attention whores and drama, but as a whole congoers are nice people. If they see someone upset and in distress, they'll go up and talk to them. Although they're judgemental, they don't bat an eye at socially maladjusted rejects in stupid costumes.

Really the only people who would shoot up an anime con would be an outsider, but good luck them getting organised and getting in, especially when there's much more viable, easier and better publicised targets.

A lady got murdered in the hotel about a week and a half before Newcon PDX 2015. She was apparently a victim of sex trafficking and I don't know if they ever caught the killer.

I think its got more to do with the fact that the most aggression that comes from this scene is passive aggression. There's still potential motives there, like how some mass shooters just wanted to see what it'd be like, or there's people like Elliot who were irrationally mad at stupid things and decided to kill people for it.

On the very rare chance someone gets a motive and isn't too passive aggressive to take action or too timid to actually obtain a gun and bring it into a con, most cons have a good amount of hotel security and while convention security for everything but the huge cons are primarily untrained volunteers, some of them are military and LEO's who are trained and/or carrying. I've met regular attendees who also concealed carry or are professionally trained.

Really, with the type of people cons attract these days, it would be risky and utterly pointless to try and shoot up a con for stupid personal reasons. Its not like you're targeting a bunch of defenseless suburban moms in a movie theater or obviously unarmed kids and teachers. Whip out a real pistol and some bearmode guy comes flying out of the game room and you spend the next 20 or so years having your butthole turned into a drink cozy.

Midwest Furfest was purposely gassed with powdered chlorine which hospitalised 19 people, some got trapped in their rooms because of the toxic gas (chlorine has been used in wars and concentration camps) and it was a very horrifying incident to be apart of. Expecially when a news anchor (known for her unproffessionablity) laughed at the story, if it wasn't furries people would be in uproar.One person who's claimed responsibility is Ryan Hill whos threatened to bomb Anthrocon and has recently made a replica of a fursuit that belonged to a famous deceased furry and wore it to conventions, the second time he did this he started wearing a halo as an accessory, Ryan Hill had never met this furry either.

I heard from another attendee that at connecticon in 2010-12? some teenage kid died because he tried to stay up for the whole con with 0 hours of sleep for the weekend, and ate/drank nothing but energy drinks.

Also, can anyone confirm? - I've heard bits and pieces of rumors that the real reason why Anime Boston ultimately can't host another rave at the sheraton is because someone died at the rave (as opposed to just a seizure or sent to hospital because of OD). like, from molly or something. I know there was a medical thing but it was never fully explained, it would make sense if the real situation was kept under wraps because a minor died.

I really hope you're just saying that last bit to be funny on an anonymous board. Do you really think someone that just spent a grueling time escaping a shitty country to leave behind gang violence, poverty, murder, corruption, etc. etc. to come to america for nothing? They might be having a crappy time jere, but it's probably a walk in the park compared to what lots of people decide to leave their old country for, especially if they're trying to sneak into the country undocumented. I seriously doubt they would fuck that up just because they were pissed at The White Man and decided to 'accidentally' make mustard gas.

I'm sure one of the idiot kids at conventions are more likely to do this shit then the poor janitor with a shitty job just trying to make some cash for themselves.

Going without sleep for several days won't kill you, although you'll feel like utter shit. You have to be awake for about a week for it to be a risk of death.

Can confirm. Matt talked about it on the Founding Fathers panel.

The kids were 17-18, just graduated high school and were all friends. They were from Virginia and on the road to RTX somewhere in Houston where a driver fell asleep and hit them. There was a big rig behind them and it couldn't stop in time so their car was sandwiched.

3 died on impact, the driver who fell asleep died, and 2 are in critical care without much hope of recovery. It was only known they were going to RTX because in the rubble of the crash were their tickets.

One girl also went missing on the last day but I don't think I've seen an update on her whereabouts.

An event like SDCC would be a very easy mass casualty event for someone who wanted to make headlines. You can buy a one day ticket from a scalper for probably $100. Make a bunch of bombs however you choose. There are no security checks besides making sure you have a badge. Go into the exhibit hall and drop some off. Lots of cardboard boxes just sitting around. Maybe you dump them in the myriad garbage cans or leave them near the Hall H lines.

If it's AX you don't even need to buy a ticket because there are ways in without having to go through the bag checks (I even avoid them out of principle). Just imagine how many injuries you'd have in south hall lobby with a few well placed bombs and how packed that lobby gets. If you want to add a few more casualties then yeah you could gun down some people who are panicking and running too.

Also in California lol carrying. California basically doesn't allow you to defend yourself with firearms unless it's your house. Good luck getting a concealed carry license here.

I'm really surprised no terrorist group has done a single there here minus 9/11

And even if you do defend yourself in your own home, whoever is barging in your house that you shoot, and they live, or their family finds out, can sue you.

Why do you think this? Not being salty or anything, and I'm not a furry, I'm just genuinely curious as to why everyone hates fursuiters. I met a group at a convention and they mostly kept to themselves and occasionally did cutesy pictures with one another. I see no harm in that.

There's a big difference between fursuiters and furries. But because furries tend to wear fursuits, it's assumed that all fursuiters are furries when they're not.

Basically, people don't like furries because they tend to be horrible people. On the mild side they're attention whores and drama queens. On the worse side they abuse animals. A while ago someone who worked in an animal shelter posted a story of them taking in a dog that had been sexually abused by a furry. The dog was a complete wreck, it was absolutely heartbreaking.

So yeah, people don't like furries because they're either unpleasant and annoying, or because they're fucked up in a bad way. Nobody gives a shit about what you get up to in the privacy of your own home, but when you go out in public in a bright green fox fursuit saying that you're actually Lucifurr the Sparklefox on the inside, don't get offended when people think you're an idiot.

It's more common than you think. Some furries reach the point where they think it's not bestiality and that their pet genuinely likes it. Needless to say, raping your dog gives it psychological issues. The most fucked up thing I ever saw on 4chan was a photo of bondage restraints a furry had put on their dog to better...'facilitate' the process. Still makes me sick thinking about it. Poor thing.

Ok as a furry I need to give some info on this. Furries are not a fetish, furries are people who like anthropomorphic characters. Beastiality is what you guys are thinking of, not furries. Furries are not at all sexual, there is a minor subculture called yiffers, yiffing is a fetish for anthropomorhic characters. It's like a venn diagram, all yiffers are furries but furries are not all yiffers. Yiffers are shunned by most furry communities and it's heaviliy looked down upon. Beastiality and animal abuse is also looked down upon. Very very few fursuiters have sex in fursuits, people who have sex in fursuits are called murrsuiters. Fursuits cost hundreds of dollars so noone wants to fuck in it because its a waste of money, only a few people with really shit suits do it because they're weird. It's looked down upon to have sex in a fursuit or wear a fursuit you've had sex in in public, people who do either of those things tend to be bullied out of the fandom.

Furries have shit tons of drama, all sub cultures have drama. Furries have a lot of drama because theres a lot of people, we're arguably the biggest sub culture known. The bad furries/yiffers/murrers are the loud ones while the good ones tend to avoid being public with being a furry from fear of bullying from others. No furry believes that they're an animal in a human body, most people mean it in a metaphorical way when they say it but people take it literal. All furries are are people who like the lion king a lot, if you like the lion king congratulations you're a furry welcome to the club.

Theres lots of bad people in the fandom but thats because theres a lot of people in it, theres lots of bad people in every culture but furries get a bigger rap for it because people don't understand it so they chalk it up to being a fetish out of ignorance, people think that if they don't know why someone does something it HAS to be some sort of weird fetish.

It wasn't con related as far as I understood, the dude who did it kept denying it but from the evidence it looked like the girl's boyfriend's roommate was gay and jealous so he killed the girl to be with the guy. There was a mention that the girl and the boyfriend went to a con but didn't invite the gay dude.

they definitely deserve whatever happens to them but if I remember correctly there's a law about over aggressive defense?

The thought is you shouldn't use lethal force unless faced with a lethal threat. Being broken into--say to be robbed--isn't necessarily considered a lethal threat. If they don't have a firearm on them and you use lethal force, prosecutors may seek homicide/manslaughter charges. Whoever kills another person may be faced with a civil suit, even if it was justifiable manslaughter.

Come on now, let's be realistic. First of all, con attendees aren't anymore badass than your general public, that concept is just laughable. Even if there were a few people attending the con that were well trained enough to take on a gunman, if the terrorist was even the slightest bit competent, they would have still mowed down a good number of people before they were stopped. You're also implying they would merely have a pistol, and what mass shooter does that? Secondly, you are gravely underestimating just how unstable anime and comic book fans can be. Six different people I know who go to cons have admitted to me that they planned out school shootings in their younger years that they seriously considered following through with, which isn't uncommon among nerds. Given how lax security is at cons, it would be so easy to get weapons in. Even the bag checks at AB, which were put into place because of a terrorist attack, won't stop people from smuggling a machine gun under a trench coat or big skirt. I'm agreeing with everyone saying it's inevitable.

Also
>Its not like you're targeting a bunch of defenseless suburban moms in a movie theater
I feel like if a anything, you're way more likely to find the military or trained types you were talking about in a movie theater than at a con. I'm not sure why you seem to think that suburban mothers are the only people who attend movies?

IMO, if someone breaks into your house to steal from you, you should be totally allowed to kill them. You don't know what they're doing there. sure they might be there to rob you, but for all you know, they could be there to rape your daughter or something. I'm usually not particularly harsh on people, but I can't feel sorry for someone who gets killed because the broke into someone random person's house with the intention of stealing from them, and I think it's pretty fucking disgusting that their family would sue over that.

Furries are literally the worst people I've ever met. They're creepy and don't know how to function outside of their circles/suits, and way too confident when they're in them.

I've been personally assaulted three times at conventions, and all three of those times were by furries (anime cons, not furfag cons)

Furries are so socially inept, they actually think it's okay to just touch, hug, etc. people they don't know, without permission, just because they're wearing a mascot suit? And they don't seem to ever understand why the people they go after get upset. There's no boundaries. They actually act like animals.

>furries, not fursuiters in general.

I automatically stay the fuck away from anyone wearing a tail outside of actual cosplay because 8/10 times it's one of these fucking autists.

Someone almost died in my room last year at Katsu. We kicked them out before the drugs took full effect, but that bitch was out cold. Her semi-sober friend carried her out. Found out she went to the hospital later on. Apparently she was mixing shit, a ton of alcohol with some kind of injectables and some kind of pills (Ritalin or adderall i think). She was also definitely underaged.

As far as the shooting goes, while I don't think we're automatically safe, since nobody is, a random shooting is actually not what I suspect will happen first. I always assumed it would be;

That logic could be applied to a lot of things, though.

I think they don't want to be lumped in with full on bestiality, which is a whole different ball game from most anthro. Their denial just males it more questionable, though.

Are you people telling yourselves this because the concept freaks you out too much to accept or something? First of all, hardly anyone who has actually carried out a mass shooting has been the type of person that would give a flying fuck about whether or not we're nerds. It's not our kind we have to worry about as much as random crazies who will see the con as an easy target. It's an event with thousands, sometimes even hundreds of thousands, of people in a confined space with lax security. They don't care if we're "normies", a giant crowd of people is still a giant crowd of people. Even if we are talking about one of us, there's tons of people who have had really awful experiences with cosplay, lolita, and conventions, and if you lurk enough, you should be well aware of just how mentally fucked some of these people can be. Not to mention, there's people who see it as setting someone free to kill them and think they're doing them a favor, so liking conventions and their attendees doesn't mean the person won't do it, either. The idea that not a single person would ever shoot up a convention is absolutely preposterous when you really stop to think about it.

By this logic, most anime fans have a fetish for anime since they get off to hentai or yaoi on occasion. Don't even try to pretend that I'm statistically wrong. Every anime fans I've talked to has admitted it. Before you pull the "well, furries are an-i-mals and that's fucked up!" argument... keep in mind that Sailor Moon, Rei Ayanami, the guys from Free, and most anime characters who people "like" in that extra special way are 17 years old at the very most. I guess that means most anime fans are child molesters. Same logic.

It can't just be because furry art is such a huge part of their life that, as physically healthy people who are past puberty, they like porn now and then. Nope. If you get turned on by furry porn EVEN ONCE, you're just like the sick fucked up minority who rape dogs. Just like if you fap to hentai every now and then, you're exactly like that guy who was in love with that girl from School Days who ended up being arrested for diddling kids.

Anime fans are really self-hating. I always see it in sub vs. dub threads, or when weebs are trying to justify their weebiness by finding bigger weebs than them.

If someone from the community just wants to kill a bunch of people, I could see them justifying themselves doing it at a con because they either see the attendees lower than them despite their similair hobbies, or because the attendees remind them of themselves.

if you do shoot in a scenario like this (home invasion) and do kill the intruder you have to swear up and down that you were in fear of your life/someone else's life. you cannot just say that "he was stealing my stuff;" must involve something like "he was threatening to come back and kill me" or "he was threatening my daughter." you generally don't want to shoot them in the back because that would mean they are fleeing.

depending on the state you may have a stand your ground/no duty to retreat or castle doctrine law. these dictate that, if confronted, you do not have to flee. surprisingly california has a castle doctrine but i think this is because politicians know it would not look well if they were trying to remove someone's legal ability to defend themself (as opposed to effectively banning most firearms carrying which sort of does the same thing; it helps a lot if people are scared of something like they were with open carry)

you also don't "shoot to injure" because that's a good way to miss. shooting at an arm or leg, something that is oftentimes moving and is much smaller than center mass, is very hard especially when you're jacked up on adrenaline and both of you are scrambling. if you shoot, shoot to kill. the important thing is to make sure you're in the clear with the shoot/no shoot scenario

This is similar to the real reason furries are hated. Geeks always want to justify their geekiness by finding a group of geeks who are more "weird" and socially inept than them to draw attention away from themselves. It's the "I may be X, but at least I'm not Y. Look at Y! What freaks!" tactic. Since furries are full of people who are eccentric, sensitive to criticism, and mentally ill, they're an easy group to target.

I hope this isn't too armchair psychologist, but I could believe it.

Anime fans: At least we're not bronies!

Bronies: At least we're not furries!

Furries: At least....we're not actual animal abusers?

Animal Abusers: We miss Michael Vick.

The geek community really has this crazy conflict spiral where people are trying so hard to prove they're not "as bad as" something else, but I don't understand why anyone needs to think that way. I'm an anime fan, but I find myself good as is. I am an awesome cook, I'm a good student, and I'm about as good a person as someone who goes to 4chan can be. But then again, I do have hobbies and loves outside of anime, so when I can sit back and watch it, I find it truly relaxing.

A lot of the people I know off of the top of my head who I would not be all that surprised if they shot a place up do NOTHING but watch anime, usually to keep up with the new season or be the first to give some dickhead review about what the studio didn't do compentently enough for them. As though it's their job, but they don't get paid for it. I know that after I watch TV all day I feel lethargic but restless, like my day was wasted, kinda gross....if I did that every day, maybe I'd hate myself too? And if I hated myself, maybe I'd be desperate to find someone I could hate even more?

They think this way because they're afraid of facing ridicule and social rejection for their interests. Maybe they've already faced it. Most people who pull the whole "I may be X, but at least I'm not Y" are either teenagers, people who still think like teenagers, or people who are mentally unstable. Remember that the average age of anime fandom is 14-23. Geeks like to think they're "above" how the average person thinks, but when you get right down to it, they still think the same way themselves. I see it all over the places at cons and in fandom.

Buying porn now and then doesn't mean that the fandom is 100% about sex. Furries who deny that the furry fandom has a sexual side and people who claim that furry fandom is nothing but sex are equally as fucking stupid.

I'm a furry, and I have to say that furries/bronies that are obvious furries/bronies at anime cons are usually fucking autistic. My sister in law always liked desu shit, and when she decided to go to that brony con, my brother begged me to go with her to make sure she was stayed safe. (New to cons, prone to overdoing things, trouble magnet, I could go on.) Despite virulently hating My Little Pony and I went to watch out for her. The bronies I met there were...surprisingly normal. Most of them, anyway. Yet the most autistic, desperate, woman-hating faggot I've ever met was a brony at an anime con.

I'm betting that's your cue. People who are legit autistic and cannot understand social information stand out and are irritating and creepy.I cosplayed last fanime, and I fursuited at Further Confusion, you'd never know I was a furry because I understand social norms and don't wear things that do not fit the venue. A fursuit does not make sense at an anime con, it's not topical and makes no sense (unless cosplay, or cosplay inspired like Gijinka). Imagine the sailor moon cosplayer at a normal sushi restaurant. They're equally autistic as a fursuit at an anime con.

The guy investigating them did not understand that "I just want someone to hang out with" type relationship most introverts want and are content with and he's like "Huh? A college boy who's had a gf for two months and hasn't kissed her? He's got problems!!" Not to mention the "A collection of knives and swords. Who collects that kind of stuff?" Man could only imagine the reaction if he'd been a buyfag into anime girl figs or had a daki in his room. It'd be more difficult for someone with more traditional thinking to pinpoint a motive if some manner of weebiness was involved; I'd never thought about this before.

By that logic, anyone who cosplays a character from Steven Universe, a character from MLP, a character from a Western video game, or someone from Star Trek at an anime con is "autistic", too. Despite what some tumbrinas or idiot bronies say, none of those things belong at an anime con... yet more than half of cosplays at cons these days aren't anime related at all. If you're going to allow this other shit, why not allow fursuits? Furuits are a small part of a much bigger problem at anime conventions, but they aren't THE problem.

If I had to pick, I'd rather see a clean and well-constructed fursuit than another shitty closet SU cosplay at an anime con any day. Of course, I'd rather see these people cosplay actual anime characters, but you know, people can't just do that anymore.

I don't know about that. I've never been suicidal, but I did pick up smoking a few years ago with hopes of getting cancer before grad school because all I could think about was what a burden I am to everyone I know, but didn't want the stigma. I realize now that even if people don't care about you that much, the discomfort they'd feel from your suicide would be far greater than their annoyance at you, but I was so caught up in the little niceties I could show to try not to be a burden.

I think that little manners like that are exactly what people are fixated on if they want to die and not make a fuss about it or go about it as cleanly as possible.

That's a bit different. How do I communicate this effectively? It comes down to hobby vs fandom vs subculture.

Using the closest to universal definition available, a hobby is a repeating action not average for the culture by its own nature or by extent. A fandom is loosely associated individuals bound by their enjoyment of a particular thing, typically consisting of multiple hobbies. A subculture is an autonomous collection of fandoms, which contain hobbies.

Most anime and comic cons loosely be defined as "cartoon fans," as most anime fans also enjoy western cartoons and vise-versa. The nature of these fandoms is derivative of media that both typically partake in. I should say that the two major subcultures - anime and comic - are very compatible and overlap a lot. Western cartoons are not anime or comics, but often the individuals are one in the same. By this I mean that the hobbies contained in both subcultures are nearly identical - cosplay, fanfiction, fanart, etc. Even if the fandoms don't line up, the hobbies do. That allows the subcultures to mesh well. More lines up than does not.

Furries are not a fandom, they are a subculture. The majority of the fandoms are self derivative. The hobby expressions - fursuiting, art, RP, writing, dance, puppetry, etc - only line up in a marginal sense. The treatment of the costuming is also markedly different - fursuiters are closer to larpers in that they are acting - versus the more glamor or photo -oriented cosplay.

The reason furries do not belong at anime cons is because the hobbies do not line up nearly as much with as many people. The shared hobbies - art and costuming, are only superficially similar. One is representational and derivative; costumes emulate, art reproduces an icon - the other is autonomous; art produces individual likenesses, costumes are a medium for acting. A pokemon fursuiter and a Gijinka cosplayer do not enjoy their hobbies the same way.

Beyond tl;dr, I know.

enough to see the hypocrisy you can't, in throwing stereotypes at everyone who doesn't

pathetic waste of space. Your whiny self-pitying claims supply 100% the
daily-recommended allowance of horse shit and your outdated suppositons about your
detractors is part of a complete persecution complex. I have every right to judge you
based on the group you belong to -- because you actively choose to belong to it. It's
not a higher force like a religion and it's not genetic like race. So stop trying to
compare your internet-mockery to groups that have had to face actual persecution and
oppression, because you don't fit that fucking bill. And I've got plenty of reasons to
make that judgement a negative one. to your distinct person. I CAN use your affiliation

porn -- there are fetishes out there that disgust me more, both physically and morally.
Neither is it the whole furry-convention thing you take such special care to point out
is a rare occurance that gets unpopular press converage. If that was the nerdiest thing
I'd seen on the internet, I'd be LUCKY. No, the thing I hate most about furries is
people just like you. Self-aggrandizing fucktards who think they're the ones making
that shit look good, instead of exactly what it is. Idiot furries claiming "you don't

Yeah, there's definitely a lot of that misplaced superiority complex. Unfortunately, it's a case of socially inept people lumped with other socially inept people into the same things, so they have to comb through each other's interests in order to find something they can feel superior to. It's a pity that furries (the normal ones, that is) bear the brunt of the hatred when there are so many better targets, especially MRAs, who tend to blend into the general autism instead of being shooed out.

Bronies are waaaaay more visible to the general public though, because they A) actively enjoy a show aimed at young girls while being mostly grown men, B) are known for making explicit porn of said show and spamming it online, therefore shoving it onto the radar of normalfags who just want to buy their kid a toy, and C) the loudest and most obnoxious ones are fedora'd gentlesirs who have exquisite taste in pones and would like to make this known to the world. Nothing screams 'crazy' like some obese hatted neckbeard with a smarmy smile and a collection of pony-printed sex pillows. Furries are known to the general public but if you see someone in a cute fursuit you'd assume that they were a mascot or taking part in a charity event, whereas a grown man carting around a hugeass pillow with a bondage cartoon horse will only be seen as a pervert and therefore taint the entire community of people who genuinely enjoy the show for its story and characters.

It's a convention, not a secret club. Honestly, if you buy the badge, wear whatever you want...as long as it's not sexually inappropriate.

By your logic, jfashion doesn't belong at anime cons either, despite the fact that I've never been to an anime con that didn't have a few jfashion panels lined up. Come to think of it, almost every convention I've been to has had a few fursuiting panels, too.

Alright kids, time for one of the con legends. Whether it is true or not, I cannot say.

I'd heard this happened at AX. Not sure of that (read otherwise on some blogs), but from the circumstances, it sounds a lot like an AX I attended when they were at Anaheim.

Anaheim Convention Center double-booked two cons: Anime Expo and some Christian conference/con/whatever.

So of course, this leads to some interesting sights for Christian con-goers as they're in the same hotels at AX attendees with their cosplay and whatnot.

Supposedly, some old lady was waiting for the elevator to head to the lobby. When the doors opened, she beheld Devilman.

All he said was "Going down?" in the deepest possible voice. The story goes that she died of a heart-attack.

I'm with this anon all the way. As a furry myself, I will not hesitate to say that this fandom has its sexual side, just like any other fandom. Some people like yiff, some people like murrsuiting (sex in fursuits), and others do not. Everyone has their thing that gets them off, and in my humble opinion, its fine-- so long as it is between 2 consenting adults and no one is getting hurt. I don't even care if they're wearing their murrsuit at a convention or something...just clean that shit damn well, cover up any holes, and don't hug children while wearing it. Whatever.

On that note, bestiality is VERY much looked down upon in the furry community. If you harm an animal in any way, you're going to get ostracised from the rest of the community. Of course, there are the few retards that think that bestiality and shit is ok, but trust me in saying 98% of furries do not think that way. Sadly, the ones that DO think that way are usually the ones that get noticed by non-furries, and it all spirals into "all of them do it" from there. All because some idiot says he dresses up as an animal and fucks his own pet.

As stated before, furries are well known for donating to charities and stuff. Almost all of the furry conventions around today collect donations as a part of the registration fee, and subsequent donations from auctions held at the con get totalled up and sent to whatever charity that convention is supporting. Anthrocon (one of the largest conventions, held in Pittsburgh) raised $35,910 for The Western PA Humane Society this year alone. This doesn't include the 17 years Anthrocon has been going on for, and also doesn't include the multiple other conventions doing the same thing for other charities.

Some furries like to fursuit, others do not. Wearing a fursuit does not make you a furry. liking anthropomorphic art (whether it be PG or porn) makes you a furry.

Every set of humans have their weird sexual fetishes.

Some cosplayers do sex stuff involving cosplay. Some others do not.
Some bronies do, some others do not.

In the end, I'm just not gonna ask anyone unless I'm dating them. No reason to know, no reason to care.

I really don't care if people are furries.

Thanks, anon. Speaking of, about the whole fursuits at anime cons debate, I think they should be allowed, so long as said fursuiters know how to behave.

No one should be touching anyone without full consent given, fursuit or not. Some furries really need to learn that boundary, but the ones that seem to act out the most are usually the ones that are newer to the fandom. That is still no excuse, however.

What matters is the country you're in right now. A man who gets arrested for having a doujinshi full of Lucky Star characters (who are 17, but look 12) getting tied up and raped by old ugly men isn't going to get away with it by saying "well, it's legal for me to fuck 16-year-olds in Japan!".

Anime fans just don't want to admit that they fap to equally as messed up shit.

Sounds like a civilized place with a good sense of morality.

Age of consent where I live is 17 but I agree with anon. There are regions of Japan where the age of consent is 13 and I think 12 in some parts of the middle east. But it doesn't make it ok to try and fondle said girls because it's ok there and completely illegal where they are currently.

>Sounds like a civilized place with a good sense of morality.
Oh, please. First of all, no actual children are being hurt, they're drawings. Second, it's an important outlet for a lot of pedophiles to keep them from hurting real, existent children. Japan's comparatively low sexual assault rates are largely accredited to their countless outlets for their sick fantasies like rape porn and lolicon. Would you rather them hurting real children or fapping to 2D? I don't like loli or shota anymore than the next non-pedo, but to say it should be illegal is fucking retarded.

I never said anything contesting this, not sure why you're telling me this.

You go it. I'm selfish and really do hate things I can't understand. Like other people's fetishes. And naturally, I get peeved when I can't break through to someone who doesn't understand mine.

Yet furries get told that they're horrible people to fapping to talking animals. That's kind of... the point of the argument.

Masturbating to 2D girls that look 12? No chance that guy could molest real children, you idiot. Masturbating to 2D talking animals that have more of a human form than an animal form? Arrest those freaks, burn them all, and keep them away from my dog!

Thought policing is a-ok and encouraged if it's related to something I don't like, but wrong if it's related to something that I do like.

You're incredibly naive if you honestly believe most of the furries you know aren't fucking in their suits or molesting animals. It's extremely common. And you say "furry has nothing to do with sex and isn't sexual," yet I'm SURE you jack it to furry shit every day of your life, because I've never, ever met a furry who didn't do that, and I've met hundreds of them. And they all say "IT ISN'T SEXUAL!"

Many of them would actually pay people to draw their fursonas and then jack it to them. I don't know if you're just new to the furry fandom or are extremely delusional or just simply lying (also very common), but you have no idea what you're touting. Furries are fucked up, I'm sure the longer you stay a furfaggot the more you will learn about how deep down the rabbit hole your fetish goes. And yes, it is a fetish. No amount of bullshit your kind spout off is going to undo what sort of activities most of us have personally witnessed you cretins doing, and I personally knew a furry who proudly stated that he lets his dog fuck him. I really have nothing more to say other than this: I hate you and all other furfags as well, and I'm being entirely sincere when I tell you to go to hell and yiff there.

I hate to tell you, anon, but I've been a furry for 7 years. I got my first fursuit 4 years ago, and have been attending conventions for a while. You must not have read my post, as I clearly stated that, yes, sex happens in the furry fandom. Porn happens. Some people like the sexual aspect of it all. There ARE naive people who will believe that there is nothing sexual about it, but THOSE people are usually the newbies. Those people don't like to remember that the first furry convention was marketed as a fetish convention, simply because they didn't know what else to market it as.

Of course some people pay for artwork of their fursonas, and of course some people get off to the artwork. Same thing happens in quite a few fandoms. However, this entire fandom isn't about sex. Some people are solely interested in portraying a character and acting in a costume/interacting with general public.

You obviously aren't very intelligent, though, since it seems that you can't do some basic research on what I'm talking about.

So paying someone to draw you porn of anthropomorphic animals = molesting animals. Got it.

Paying for porn or Sailor Moon getting raped by ugly old men = fucking real 14 year olds, too.

And everyone who's ever beaten off to hentai must have a fetish for anime, then.

This is a very clear case of needing some fandom or subculture to hate on to draw attention away from your own fucked up interests. That or some hot girl dumped you for a furry.

You do realize that you sweat, right?
But in all seriousness, that's your decision. Many murrsuiters just get separate suits for that kind of stuff. However, fur can be cleaned of sexual fluids with a bit of work...no one wants to see a ratty old dirty fursuit walking around at cons.
