   It's not a non sequitur at all. He made the assertion that if there   
   were no moral truths then it would follow that he could kill vegans   
   with impunity. Actually, this is demonstrably false because he lives   
   under a legal system which imposes penalties for murdering other human   
   beings, so it's not true that he can kill other human beings with   
   impunity. This is part of the reality of his situation regardless of   
   whether or not there are any moral truths.   
      
   Perfectly straightforward.
