Sorry, you’re too fat to eat here

A Mississippi state lawmaker wants to ban restaurants from serving food to obese customers - but please, don’t be offended.

My goodness. My thoughts about this are fairly random….

Shouldn’t lawmakers be spending their time on more important issues…. reducing crime.
Deal with health insurance issues first.
Is the state going to supplement the restaurant’s loss of revenue?
Spend your state money to give fat people access to a gym.
Start a program to encourage obese people to participate in state funded organized support groups.
Not all obese people are fat because they over eat… hmmmm…. let me see… lack of exercise certainly has something to do with it.
How do you determine who’s obese? *Step on the scale sir… Okay. Now let me check this BMI chart*
What is the punishment for letting obese people eat in a restaurant? Community service? Time in the pokey?

I could go on… and on…. but I won’t. This is worse than the whole ‘big brother’s watching you’ issue, if you ask my opinion.

Yeah… some things just make ya go hmmmm….
