Did someone die for you to get that engagement ring??

An add that keeps showing on here made me think about this.

Do you really care if your diamond is conflict-free?

I don't. I have my own family to worry about. Just being honest.

Mine's fake so I'm sure no one died over it.

I don't know honestly about my engagement ring, but I do believe I read on the pamphlet it was a conflict free diamond. I am currently taking my time to pick out my wedding band (already married) but I am making sure it is a conflict free band. Not because if I found out that say, my engagement ring wasn'ta conflict free diamond I would return it or refuse to wear it...I still and always will love my ring unconditionally. However knowing it is an option to go that small extra step to find my dream wedding band and make sure it also is a conflict free assured diamond(s) is important to me. I suppose in my opinion I just find it simple and easy to visit a different website if I must to find that logo and promise, since too many people die everyday day as it is...

We got our ring from EE Robins partially because they ate fantastic there with amazing rings and amazing service. But the reason we chose to walk in their door was because they don't use blood diamonds :)

I honestly don't know and at the moment it's not high up on my list of concerns.

Actually, I have a man and I'm far from a hater. I wouldn't want an expensive ring. Didn't you just read why I think they are stupid? Why don't you do the research about the diamond trade instead of saying you'd rather not know, then you might understand why I don't want one.

And that's the problem with out society. You'd rather not know if someone died so you could wear that sparkley, over priced rock. Your stupid status symbol is more important than someones life? That's just wrong.
uh oh....I smell a hater........eeeek!
What's wrong dear? Hubby not get you a nice ring? Or do you not even have a man?
Just a reminder...you started it:)
