No, it should not. Regardless of what the PC brigade and the Vegans have to say.
And why not?

Because they are a bossy minority who don't reflect public opinion, but claim to.

I have never met a vegan who claimed to reflect public opinion. Have you? how did all these strange bossy vegans of your acquaintance reconcile the idea that they reflect public opinion with the fact that most people aren't vegans?

the ones I know tend to despair of the fact that their views aren't reflected amongst the general public. I have never encountered them smugly assuming that everyone agrees with them. I don't suppose you have any examples of this happening?

They smugly assume they are right, and are intent on being the voice of public opinion.

But they don't claim to reflect public opinion, as per your claim, do they?

Everyone thinks they're right. You think you're right, don't you?

Which vegans where and when claim to reflect public opinion?
