Most vegans know that it's impossible to eliminate 100% of animal casualties
in products they buy and use. The idea is to minimize animal casualties
through the choices they make. Vegans choose not to eat meat, dairy, etc.
because it contributes less to animal casualties. The cattle industry is
responsible for a far greater number of collateral animal casualties than
vegan's collective contribution. You don't want vegans to know that because
it discredits your wild accusations.
