Ban fatties from eating

Excerpt
A Mississippi legislator wants to ban restaurants from serving food to obese customers — but please, don’t be offended.

He says he never even expected his plan to become law.

Representative John Read says he was “trying to shed a little light on the number one problem in Mississippi.”

Read, a Republican, acknowledges that at 5-foot-11 and 230 pounds, he’d probably have a tough time under his own bill.

More than 30 per cent of adults in Mississippi are considered obese, according to a 2007 study by the Trust for America’s Health, a research group that focuses on disease prevention.

You know what I think? Why not?

Many of these fat asses are the ones who voted to ban smoking from public places, who vote to make "six foot" rules at strip clubs, many would vote against casino gaming and basically all other things fun. So why shouldn't they bear some pain in the ban game?

Even better than that, let's make them run three miles a night until and only eat soy products. Maybe then they'll leave me alone when I want to go to a casino.
