Well, I care a lot about animal rights but still I'm nothing like PETA people.
Lactose intolerance is quite common in any non-white people though, so it makes sense that this is something avoided by a large number of people.
Then again, on the ethical side it won't really make a difference for the farmers whether you buy milk or meat. The point of veganism is (in my view) not to financially support an industry whose principles are incompatible with my own views on ethics. Making this industry insignificant gradually is the only way to protect animal rights (as understood by vegans) in the future.
Do you like or hate peta?
