No, it's mostly fat people who go hateful crazy when you tell them they are not eating right, or eating too much.

They are disgustingly fat and getting fatter every day. They are people with no pride in themselves or their bodies.

I have to admit it has been hilarious watching them loose their minds whenever the 1st lady suggests maybe we should be feeding our children healthy food instead of stuffing them with twinkies all day long. Their brains have been so damaged and they're so consumed by hatred that they rush out and stuff themselves full of an entire carton on Hostess Cup Cakes just to spite her. Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face, morons.

According to savoir fail's link, EVERY state is predicted to have 45% or more of their population above the 'obese' level by 2030.

Looks like the government will have to adjust their measuring stick to make it look like whoever is in charge at the time is stopping obesity. That is how the game is played. What will stop fat people from ordering two Big Mac value meals instead of one in NY and the like as they most likely do anyway?? LOL

The prediction was for the year 2030, and currently many states are in the 31-35% range.

Many of the people who have a heart attack when you mention healthy lifestyles or eating are conservatives.

They will all be dead by 2030 of a heart attack so no worries if that is the case. Best start up some sort of crane business to haul coffins around because pallbearers will be in short supply toting those big uns around.

Many of these obese people experiencing heart attacks are liberals
Does that concern you at all?
