Mississippi To Ban Fat People From Eating In Public!?
“AN ACT TO PROHIBIT CERTAIN FOOD ESTABLISHMENTS FROM SERVING FOOD TO ANY PERSON WHO IS OBESE, BASED ON CRITERIA PRESCRIBED BY THE STATE…”

AHHHHH!
This really pisses me off. The government just needs to stay out of our personal lives. It’s not their job to govern personal choices. This is the worst case of prejudice I’ve ever seen - and government organized at that!! If this actually gets into the law books, this is a big step backwards for society. First they ban public smoking, then restaurants using trans fats now fat people can’t be served publicly? - What’s next???? I don’t smoke and I try to eat healthy, but I don’t need the government to “make” me not smoke or eat better - WTF is right!!
We as a people have to stand up against this government abuse or we will find ourselves no longer a free nation.
“Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety those who would trade freedom for short-term security deserve neither freedom nor security and will lose both”
wow!
You can’t help but extrapolate where this is going…FAT PEOPLE MADE ILLEGAL…BLACK MARKET DOUGHNUTS…
Isn’t that against the Constitution?….yeah, right along with separating church and state right??!!
And Venus is conjunct Jupiter at the moment . . . exaggeration is the order of the day!! yuk, yuk . . . 
this will never fly but it is an interesting comment on the collective need to improve our health habits thanks to Saturn in Virgo!
The soldier told me if someone tells him he can’t eat he is going to shoot them dead and then see if anyone else wants to have a say about it.
Unfortunately he also told me some months ago he thought exactly this would happen. Write him off as crazy and then this!
Terrible, fascist idea.
Although I support the ban on smoking because of the fact that second-hand smoke harms/kills.
With Pluto now in Capricorn, will the obesity epidemic subside?
Janet - Apparently… if the government has anything to say about it. I swear the soldier told me this would happen months ago and I thought he was insane. He says today he thinks this will go through if you can believe that. People will bitch about rights but they will get this in place, slowly at first and then more and more. Same way the gov’t did with smoking. Think about the outrage when they first curtailed smoking in some way?
I asked him how he thought they would enforce this - who decides who is fat and unfortunately he had an answer. It is hard for me to believe but he is so often right.
“I am trained. I know how they do this. I am trained to take down a country and this is how they do it…”
PS - in the UK they are working on that law that bans those who lead unhealthy lifestyles from accessing health care. Let’s face it. The government is trying to run your life and your body!!
oh my goodness!! And what “obese” means is decided by the state?!?! Outrageous!
OMG, Elsa, you’re right. Because you know they’re heading us towards universal healthcare, which could be great, but they’re going to use that to justify controlling the minutia of everyone’s personal life!
I seriously have to marvel at the level of idiocy required to put this forward as legislation.
and as a fatty I have to say, in all seriousness, my kind will not stand for this. with as much sideways prejudice that people with extra weight have to put up with you can bet money a straightforward issue will get all kinds of jumped on.
just TRY to keep me out of the doughnuts, just fucking TRY. serious. I am one dangerously cranky fatty.
I don’t understand how someone can be angry about a ban on trans fats? you can eat delicious food without trans fats. They are poisons! Should the healthcare department control sanitation in restaurants too? Or should we trust the establishment’s own judgement because its none of the government’s business… geez. maybe an obese person tried to sue a fast food joint for heart disease of for being fat and won! you don’t know, but there may be a good reason as to why the law was proposed, and it probably won’t get passed. My guess is the people who are angry are obese.
Isn’t Mississippi the poorest state? Isn’t fast food the cheapest food available? People in Mississippi are obese because they can’t afford to be healthy!
discrimination. i mean, seriously, enacting this could get the ADA on people’s case (obesity is a medical condition after all.)
how ridiculous.
everyone needs to eat, for heaven’s sake.
” My guess is the people who are angry are obese.”
Reeeeeeeeaaally? And I suppose the only people who would (or should) rail against the death penalty and slavery would be prisoners on death row and those in history who were deemed less than cattle?
Hmmmmmmm……..thank the Divine that there are people designed greater than the cavity that holds the brain.
I am not nor have I ever been “fat” and I think that this bill IS a crime. Do I think that fast food is safe for the body? Nope. The penalty should be placed on the Industry (the victimizer) not the victim. That is the same as a court deciding that a rape victim “asked for it” by wearing certain garments.
Actually I think the entire “system” is ludicrous. The food we consume has been genetically modified and barely fit for human consumption. High Fructose Corn Syrup is in almost every pre-packaged food on supermarket shelves which leads to obesity, and, other health conditions such as diabetes, high cholesterol and triglycerides.
Aspartame (the artificial sweetener) is in every “diet” food and also leads to irreversable damage to internal organs, but, you don’t see any legislation to ban that shit.
So, instead of placing the blame squarely on the entity (government/FDA in this case)that designed this epidemic, let’s single out a segment of society and place the “scarlet letter” upon their chests.
Alma, you’ve hit on something here. If you look at the foods that are the least expensive (affordable for the average person) then it would be all those “Value Menu’s” and pre-packaged foods.
Fruits and vegetables (except corn and soybeans) are not subsidized by the great and omnipotent Government so they are priced right out of the average diet.
This is all by design and as always there are always victims…especially children.
Time to clean “house”.
I don’t see this law passing. If it does, I’d open a bunch of fast food restaurants right across the state line and make a fortune.
