Thanks to neil for putting it well - I just used another section of society that people would identify with

Yes I know they have done nothing wrong in your eyes (and also in the eyes of just about everyone else, myself included) but the CV obviously do not subscribe to the same kind of 'laws' that you and I do, therefore their views differ which of course they're entitled to. At the same time, a person or group cannot IMO have such extreme views without getting a backlash such as the general puplic perception of them and the resultant actions of the Co-op.
