People would be less abrasive if certain vegetarians didn't waste time with accusations about the normal American diet. You have 0% chance of changing our minds.

This is absolutely untrue. I have three or four friends who became vegetarian recently because they did, in fact, have their minds changed. I'm not sure what changed their mind, I'm not much of a vegetarian preacher myself, but will talk about it if asked.

Honestly I know of no guy (male) that eats a regular amount of meat that would quit out of the blue. And that's where it's often been brought up:

Go to eat w/ an Indian kid. You order a cheeseburger, he orders a tofu burger. You laugh (this is the correct play). At the table he starts explaining to you the reason he being a vegetarian is so good, blah blah, blah. It's like STFU.
