I question the need of having the freedom to buy cyancali bread at the baker, for example. And if the individual is praticing it's freedom in a way that it creates mounting negative consequences and costs for the community, then this understanding also must be questioned, for there is no thing such as unlimited freedom as long as you are not the only man on Earth. My freedom ends were I start to limit yours, or live my free life at your costs, and vice versa.

Freedom fries, anyone? the use of this word, freedom, can be exaggerated. We are talking about healthy versus unhealthy food. Let'S leave politic philosophy out of it - it has no place in this.

i reckon we have all to easily fallen into the habit (and it is a habit) of creating scapegoats...we can't prevent illegal immigration...we can't deal properly with the crime rates...we have all the troubles on going of the terrorism issue...we also have the worrys (real or no) about climate change...fuel reserves...etc etc...

and what do we do...?

we stop a fat man from bringing his fat wife into the country...oh yeah that's going to help enourmously..idiotic:nope:

End of the world, make the most of it now as we head to-wards a new dark age. Don't believe me! Stick around and witness it for yourself.

:hmm:

that was the general jist of my statement after all ;) so it goes ever on...

if the suits can keep us focused on scapegoats then we will tend to give them less hassle as they go about their "plan" to solve all the worlds problems..what-ever the hell that is...

either way what ever they are up to, the last thing they want is ordinary people messing the whole thing up..so like pavlov's dog (spelling?) they train us to look the other way...and deflect all the resentment towards some randomly selected (and completely innocent) segment of society...wonder who's next on the list?

ugly people?
people with chronic arthritis? (old people?)
the key requirment being that the selected group remains unlikely to raise significant protest...even in the face of such blatant descrimination..(and manipulation)
no one is immune...we're all human...

is any of this likely to make the world a better place ???

be a huge surprise if it did....a huge surprise...divide and conquer...we#ll all be at each others throats with the governments blessing if they persist in this policy

Did anyone test her for genetic predisposition? If she was born with one or more facilitating characteristics, does that still excludes her? Will predisposition exclude other conditions aswell, bone problems, heart issues, etc., or just fatness? If so, then dismantle hospitals already because you will only need an ER and maybe a pharmacy.

I have a simple solution for this problem...

At the airport, stipulate that everyone who comes into the country has to pass through a metal detector, then simply have a really narrow metal detector walkway. That way, you're not actually saying that you can't come in because of your size; hey presto! no blame and everyone in the PC world has nothing to complain about!

'You can't fit? Oh well, never mind, have a piece of our complementary cake, and then feck off back on the plane lardass! and make sure you sit in the middle, or the pilot will have control difficulties'

Tune in next week when I will be solving the problems of the quest for world peace

The all consuming lack of willpower's fruitless battle against the inexorable, omnipotent draw of cake and pies maybe?

Rating everything by BMI seems a bit ridiculous since it is muscle mass that weights a lot more than fat does.
