What evidence forms the basis of your guesswork?
Er... yes. That is usually the purpose of a protest.

eating of meat and the discovery of fire pretty much made the homo sapiens what he is today ......some historians credit humans with the extinction of entire species of mega fauna throughout various continents.
Smart Post !!
1.Don`t think guess needs evidence.....It`s a guess !
2. So you agree with me. Good.
I usually feel quite frisky after my Eggs Benedict....I think you’re correct.

Incorrect about apes/chimps, they eat meat as well. an example here http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rc...-out-monkeys&usg=AOvVaw0OoJ_-q254O56MZUmGy6G2

Vegans must be crap in bed if they don't eat meat.
Agreed but only a small percentage of eggs get fertilised even if there is a cockerel. I'm not sure my neighbours will appreciate the alarm clock !
Agreed. A bunch of tossers. If they have nothing better to do, then demonstrate about something important … like the need for the Albion to play a more attacking style of football.

I've got no objections if Vegan "activists" want to find a way to educate others about the things they've learned, though it needs to be in a non-threatening and less judgemental way
Eating meat has undoubtedly played a huge and natural part in our evolution, and because of this, our brain gives us huge chemical rewards for eating it However the question is, do we still need to eat it now? Environmentally it's going to be totally unsustainable to have 7 up to 10bn having a large proportion of meat in our diets.
I'm really concerned about animal welfare all through the production of food. Though being a weak individual, I've got gone through with my conviction to give meat up. I've cut down a fair bit I suppose

Allegedly 3.5 million people 'identifying' as Vegan in 2018. 30% of that is about 1 million... there is no way that there are 1 million vegans getting involved in protests. The real number is statistically tiny, and probably in line with hard line twats of every flavour.
Being vegan doesn't automatically make you an idiot, and most vegans, like most humans, understand that imposing your personal views on another isn't going to make any difference. These sorts of stunts are totally counter-productive, as are interviews on This Morning etc, where they typically get hard line / antagonistic people on, because it's better TV. Imagine if they had a normal, moderate person on there just arguing that it's only their personal point of view. How boring.
I disagree. They stimulate debate which I feel is needed.
3.5 million = 5% of population. That figure surprises me. I know several vegetarians but no Vegans but there again probably mix in different circles to them.

You may be surprised to hear that in 1999 some Maoists put into official communist creed that vegan activism of the type described is actually condemned by the party. Anyone caught doing the things in the video would be sent 'to prison or re-education camp'.

I personally think that there should be mandatory Stalinesque re-education camps for any of the following:
- Protesting about people eating meat (forcing your views on others)
- Eating meat (think of the poor little lamb's face)
- Starting threads about anything as insignificant as a vegan protest that even the restaurant owner could only call "a bit annoying"

I'll quote my own link again where gorillas eat monkeys as their dna is found in their faeces.

Gorilla's aren't monkeys though.

I'd go along with this.
I think it's important though, to separate eating meat from mass farming. Hunting a wild animal to feed a village or rearing an animal for food are two of the most natural human instincts there are.

The original comment was that our 'ancestors' ie apes were vegetarian. Gorillas are apes and not vegetarian.
