I contend that, if anarchy ever became widespread, vegans would be among the weakest contenders for survival.

They are the weakest already regardless of the political system if you believe the author of the book.
Anarchy and chaos will be more and more common, perhaps the reigning political system the way humanity is headed.
At least they used pies and not guns. The peppers seemed to be an attempt at assault, but the article did not make clear if he suffered any burns.
Some of the vegans are pretty whacko and others are just riding a fad. I have always suspected the veggie only diet would leave you vulnerable to health issues. I would not be surprised if the author was able to documented negative health consequences.
Interesting that he believes agriculture is destroying the planet. I can relate to that point of view. Not sure if these factory farm operations, especially the chicken and pork producers, are any less harsh on the environment.
Habitat destruction and species disappearing are legitimate issues to be addressed. The natural animal kingdom deserves to be preserved and respected.
Domestic animals are not natural and would not exist but for human intervention. I see no problem with allowing consumption as long as human health is protected.
No animals deserve to be treated inhumanely. Consumption of domestic animals is not inhumane. The radical vegans who wants to free all the animals from the farms and the labs are very wrong.
These actions harm the environment more that it helps.
