What do you think about the problem of obesity in America? For me, I think it is so messed up how people keep eating and eating and eating without any form of exercise. I really don't like it when obese people say they want to diet, but then go to McDonalds and order a Large BigMac meal and a diet coke because they are on a diet . . .It just aggravates me how they feel like victims, when in fact they are the ones hurting themselves.

If people have a problem with obese people, that is prejudice!


the point of this is not that someone has a problem with obese people because they are obese, but because obesity can be a serious health problem.
therefore people should take care of themselves and keep their weight in control(there is nothing wrong with a couple extra pounds, but if climbing some stairs is a challenge than think about doing something).

that is where the problem with obesity lies, not because someone might find it unattractive

I dont have a problem with obese people but it is annoying sitting next to them.


Certainly, especially on an airplane.

It is their decision if they want to do that or not, not ours.

but if climbing some stairs is a challenge than think about doing something


Or they could just be like me and not ever do anything...

This can be solved with government regulated fitness centers! Just think, public fitness centers payed for by YOURtax dollars to help get rid of obese people once and for all! It's time for the community pays to fix their problem!

Their weight problems could effect us in less direct ways. Have to pay more taxes when they all get too fat to go get a job and are living off of public welfare.

I've got a crazy idea, why not send everyone who is so fat that they can't even fit into a Hummer anymore to military training! That would make some people afraid of being fat AND it would be a cheaper way to get the fatties thin again! Of course, we aren't going to send the fatties out to actually fight a war. They'll just go through military exorsizes to take a chunck of fat off their bones!

Military exorcisms? Sounds painful.

If parents are really freaked out about their kids weight send them to military school, it sucks and your kids will lose weight!

I think he meant exercise...

Military exercise only teaches you to fry your body... Losing weight that fast isn't healthy, plus, most people, when they stop that rigorous training, they gain the weight back...Plus extra.
