Bill would make it illegal to feed the obese
   

Source: USA Today

Three legislators want to make it illegal for restaurants to serve obese customers in Mississippi.

House Bill No. 282, which was introduced this month, says: Any food establishment to which this section applies shall not be allowed to serve food to any person who is obese, based on criteria prescribed by the State Department of Health after consultation with the Mississippi Council on Obesity Prevention and Management established under Section 41-101-1 or its successor. The State Department of Health shall prepare written materials that describe and explain the criteria for determining whether a person is obese, and shall provide those materials to all food establishments to which this section applies. A food establishment shall be entitled to rely on the criteria for obesity in those written materials when determining whether or not it is allowed to serve food to any person.

The proposal would allow health inspectors to yank the permit from any restaurant that "repeatedly" feeds extremely overweight customers.

I said many years ago because of certain things like insurance companies that laws would be put in place that would control what people eat. This is just the beginning for all of us.

Hopefully the "guidelines" won't include stepping on a scale. I think that would really suck for "certain"  ;) people.  ;D

As a participant in the "Fat People's Lack of Willpower is Sickening!" thread, I certainly applaud the sentiment, but the reality is this wouldn't even come close to surviving a court challenge should it pass.

While I can understand why people would be complaining about big government I think this is a good idea. There's no benefit to being fat and it's jacking up health care costs. It's the best we'll see unless they make Fatcentration camps.

Ze fatcentration camps are the best bet.  Democracy won't solve this problem...  we need a regime patterned on the Third Reich.  Debussey can be Hitler, Quickerblade can be Himmler, Xerxes can be Goebbels, "Bulky" Basile can be Goering, and I'll be Adolph Eichmann...  architect of the "Final Solution" to the Fattie Question!  :D

Something should be done... it kills me seeing these 600lb. fat asses confined to bed and their friends/family bringing them a plate of cheeseburgers or bucket of KFC because they feel sorry for them and think it will help ease their conscience. Sickening.. in European jails people are given bread and water, that same regime should be instituted here.
