If you don't like it, move out. Being pushy and pedantic to someone who is essentially unsympathetic to the cause, doesn't get you anywhere, and usually just creates counter-productive defensiveness.

I agree with you.

If she feels that uncomfortable, then maybe she should move out.

You can't just force people to change.

Oh my! I completely understand where it's coming from- when I first went vegan, every day things I never thought about before started making me very uncomfortable. I remember sending a long and emotional  letter to my step-grandparents explaining why I won't be having Christmas with them anymore!
But yes the anger and frustration about the cruelty certainly got the better of this girl being in touch with reality and how everyday people think.
What a shame.

That's pretty amusing though, I must admit. Especially this comment:

Dear Roommate,
I have a bone to pick with you. I got your note and you are such a chicken not to talk to me face to face. It just seems so fishy that you would choose to confront me on paper rather than in person. I have a real beef with you over that. You’re such a pig. Honey, if you really have such a problem with my eating habits, you’re going to have to find a way to deal with it like an adult without clamming up and retreating into your shell.
Love,
Roommate

I think it's funny cos they said bone to pick with you, your such a pig, I have beef with you, and it seems fishy. Way to refer to as many animal products as you can haha.
"Your such a chicken not to talk to me face to face"

She sounds like she's got really bad paranoia to me. I don't generally like people consuming animal products, but you can't just force someone to go vegan because you are...

Gee, if my omnivore friends or parents read this, they would say "HA! See!" even though it doesn't prove anything.

Its annoying that some omni's do that, but if a vegan does that OH NO!!!
