And to each their own. You have your choices, and I'll have mine.
But society is not that black & white. Too many people have their choices, but then also want to tell you that your choices should be the same as theirs. Even to the point of arranging demonstrations and even outright boycotts of business. So what gives them the right to try to push their beliefs on others?
I've even encountered people standing out side events to chant and hand out their flyers supporting their position and condemning your choices. Outside a pig roast and BBQ rib festival they wore pig noses and talked to everyone entering, giving out flyers in protest of the festival, and how eating meat is murder. When trying to walk around them, they move in front of you to persuade you to their way of thinking and their choices.
When I replied "no thank you", they persisted, walking beside me.
Prompting another "no thank you"... Followed by "get away from me".
After enjoying the festival, and eating my fill... I saved some baby back ribs bones to offer to the protesters when leaving. They seemed to be annoyed... mission accomplished.
They have done the same thing at crab house restaurants.
Not all are forceful & persistent, but still, annoying.
Then there's the billboard advertisements supporting their choices.
Like that really going to persuade people to become vegan?

But it's a nice try. At least I can quietly ignore the billboard without having to be annoyed by somebody in my face.
But... Such is life. There's always some group trying to impose their choices upon others. I mean... It's America... freedom of choices prevails... interpreted to mean that they have the right to condemn your freedom to enjoy freedom from other people's choices.
This same concept applies to religions. They have the right to "freedom of religion"... while denying others the "freedom from religions". But that's another story for another time.
