You can't make this stuff up.
There is a new movement that seeks to ban mean-spirited something or other, or prejudice against fat people. It appears that it is going to be a hate crime for acknowledging the fact that someone is enormous.
Poor people are usually fat not because they can't afford healthy food, but because they prefer to buy fast food, cigarettes, booze and electronic toys with their money (often welfare)-rather than healthy food or YMCA memberships.
What you put into your body is actually one of the most primary choices that human beings have. Nobody makes you stuff your face-it's a matter of personal responsibility. Now, these activists would have it be illegal, or Super Mean even for a physician to warn his or her patient about the dangers of excessive overweight (i.e: clinical obesity).
This insanity is commonplace in San Francisco, and the Very Screwed UK is looking upon this movement with jealousy.
Having said that, how can it be that Canada has not adopted these laws? Quite shocking.

Hey, I thought we weren't supposed to be judging people in the first place...unless they were religious, pro-life or smokers?
Whatever happened to the good old days when you could notice someone's weight problem, but were constrained by manners and good taste (those concepts used to have meaning)not to say anything about it to them?
And welcome back, C-in-C.
Thanks Matthew-good to be back!
