I was wondering have any Vegan folks has been bullied in real life?
I not vegan, but I respect all vegan folks by eating vegan food during Vegan Festival or Animal Rights Protest.

I have, but not severely to the point where I was refusing to go to school. Not necessarily because I'm vegan (most people don't actually know I'm a vegan), but because I happen to be a lot different to most teenagers. I have a condition that inhibits social ability and causes me to be extremely shy, so people tend to notice and sometimes take things too far with their comments, or purposely leave me out of things. I doubt it has little (if anything) to do with me being vegan though, because like I said, only a handful of people know I'm a vegan. Plus, people picked on me before I adopted the lifestyle, and while there have been times that people have mildly criticised me for being a vegan, it's not been anything major that resembles bullying. I hope my answer helped.

Yes some have been, either by family, associates, and classmates. No one is immune to being bullied, regardless of diet, or any other reason someone may want to engage in such actions. Bullies can come in all types ans sizes. Bullying can take different forms, from the physical, to the subtlest form mentally. It could even be called a game of one upping, by trying to appear superior to someone, at some level. So I would have to say in a definitive yes, that some vegans have been bullied.

I have, but only once. And it was by a person who was genuinely a dirtbag, not by people who I'd consider friends or family. Most people either don't care or they actively try to relate to me or be supportive in some way. But I don't frequently tell people that I'm a vegan. I keep it to myself unless someone insists that I eat the animal products they're offering. Very few people in my life know that I'm a vegan.

No, surprisingly.
I wouldn't even consider myself to have been bullied in general.
There have been times when I've been laughed at, and made to feel like the butt, but bullying is repeated harassment, not a transient bout of pettiness.

Yes, of course they have. One thing that is constant is the idiocy of bullies and they pick on people for looks, diet, weight, race, and any other thing they can think of to try and make themselves feel important.
