Your problem is rather obvious.....

Full article makes it clear she wasn't arrested for vegan beliefs. She was arrested for not following a police order to take the kid to a hospital quickly enough. She delayed an hour after the police showed up and issued the order.

Whole thing is her fault and has nothing to do with veganism. Plus, whole thing could easily have been prevented entirely by giving the kid a bottle of water. If dehydrated that's the best thing. And determining dehydration is easy enough, little pinch of skin to see if it bounces back or not. If it stays pinched and folded/wrinkly you're dehydrated.

Yeaaaah, naaaah. Nothing to do with veganism at all. Well, except for the fact she refused to feed her dehydrated child the formula a doctor gave her. According to investigators, Sarah Markham admitted that she did not give the formula provided to her by her child's doctor because she believed the ingredients came from animals.

Except for that. Rather poignant, don't you think?

Use those abdominal muscles and really try to pry that cranium out of that rectum.

There are no conservative vegans?

Hitler pretty much was...but he was a socialist.
