Quote:

JACKSON, Miss. - A state lawmaker 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.

“I was trying to shed a little light on the number one problem in Mississippi,” said Republican Rep. John Read of Gautier, who acknowledges that at 5-foot-11 and 230 pounds, he’d probably have a tough time under his own bill.
Story continues below ↓advertisement

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

The state House Public Health Committee chairman, Democrat Steve Holland of Plantersville, said he is going to “shred” the bill.

“It is too oppressive for government to require a restaurant owner to police another human being from their own indiscretions,” Holland said Monday.

The bill had no specifics about how obesity would be defined, or how restaurants were supposed to determine if a customer was obese.

Al Stamps, who owns a restaurant in Jackson, said it is “absurd” for the state to consider telling him which customers he can’t serve. He and his wife, Kim, do a bustling lunch business at Cool Al’s, which serves big burgers — beef or veggie — and specialty foods like “Sassy Momma Sweet Potato Fries.”

“There is a better way to deal with health issues than to impose those kind of regulations,” Al Stamps said. “I’m sorry — you can’t do it by treating adults like children and telling them what they can and cannot eat.”

I read a similar article not long ago about two guys that were banned from an all-you-can-eat buffet because they literally cleared out all their pans of food every time they came through, ate everything in sight. They were filing a suit against the owner of the restaurant chain for discrimination or something lol

It was an "all-you-can-eat" buffet though, so :shrug:

So Mississippi is fat, and stupid. I guess their reasoning is, if they can't lose the weight, we'll help them, and if they're too dumb to grasp the concept of decimals and fractions, we'll just get rid of them.

"13 August 1999
Jackson, MS -- Bolstered by the state of Kansas' recent measure removing the requirement for the teaching of evolution in public schools, yesterday afternoon the Mississippi legislature passed a bill eliminating fractions and decimal points from the mathematics curriculum of all public secondary schools in the state.

"Despite the coincidental timing of the measure, this was no whim," asserted Mississippi state senator Cassius de Spain. "We'd had the issue under consideration for several months now."

The bill, which cleared the Mississippi Senate by a vote of "a lot" to "a little" (with "this many" senators abstaining) after some initial confusion over how many votes constitute a "majority," directs public secondary schools in Mississippi to emphasize whole number arithmetic in mathematics courses and orders the removal of questions involving non-integer mathematics from standardized state tests after 1999. The fate of percentages remains undetermined as educators attempt to work out an alternative scoring method for tests.

Judith Sutpen, chairperson of the Mississippi Senate Education committee, defended the legislature's action against charges that it was motivated by "controversial religious beliefs."

"This has absolutely nothing to do with religion," she told reporters at a press conference Friday morning. "We're simply seeking to make mathematics more accessible to schoolchildren by de-emphasizing the elements that so many of them find confusing. It makes no sense to try to train our students how to think logically, then present them with nonsensical concepts such as 'irrational' and 'imaginary' numbers."

Senate minority leader Cora Tull indicated that religion did play a part in the passage of the legislation, however, maintaining that "if cardinality is good enough for the Catholic church, it ought to be good enough for the children of the great state of Mississippi." She added that "'improper fractions' have no place in any respectable school system, public or private."

Freshman senator John Sartoris of Brookhaven elaborated on the reasons for his colleagues' support of the bill: "We're sick and tired of hearing about how everything in our culture, from art to entertainment to education, is aimed at the 'lowest common denominator' of society. We're took aggressive action to do something about it yesterday by eliminating that denominator."

School librarians expressed concern about whether they will be able to continue categorizing books according to the Dewey decimal system once the law goes into effect, but Jason Compson, chief librarian for the Greater Biloxi School District, opined that "anyone who couldn't beat that pinko Truman doesn't deserve a place of honor in our schools' libraries anyway."

Several senators indicated that an additional measure aimed at removing "irregular verbs" from English classes might be in the offing."

If we could just convince everyone that thinks this bill is absurd because people should be able to eat what they want, to really MEAN that people should be able to eat what they want, the drug legalization movement would get along nicely.

I remember one lazy summer day watching one of those court shows on TV, you know, the hilarious Judge Judy type shows... but it was called "Eye for an Eye." It's really... unethical. Probably scripted. Either way, the defendant gets revenge when they take them to this court, and on this particular episode a Chinese buffet owner fucking put a laxative in this FAT black bitch's food because she kept eating ALL of his food. So they slipped him a really strong laxative before he went into the courtroom and then didn't let him leave... he was on national television squeezing his butt cheeks together for dear life. :rofl:

Shouldn'ta eaten everyone's fuckin' food, woman. God damn. Leave some for the children for christs sake...

OMG they removed decimals and fractions?

I would understand removing imaginary numbers, but fractions and decimals are used EVERY DAY. I use ratios and percentages in my own mental-analysis of everything i do in life.

I've always believed that the obesity problem stems not from what we're eating, but what we're not doing. Inactivity is, I really believe, the culprit.

Ironic because I just put up a post about this... the When I Was Your Age post. Less about obesity, but it hits that a bit.

Get these people off their asses and make them active... especially kids.

There are better solutions to the health care system than dictating where people eat and who restaraunts can call customers. Like treadmills.

The bill is real. Its more of a publicity stunt than anything. One of the bills sponsors even said as much.

this is a minor problem, as the citizens seem to live in a constant marshal law in the U.S. anyway. the amendments are taken away, your basic rights chipped off one by one... its turning into a Kafka novel. expect more absurd, restricting laws soon.

Never Hire an Accountant from Mississippi!
The admirable "Urban Legends" website (www.snopes2.com) reports that the following is "true." However, we must admit that it stretches our credulity just a bit. Be that as it may, the Yoknapatawpha County Register of August 13, 1999 reports:

See article above.




It's obviously false. When I tried to find Yoknapatawpha County's register this is what I found.

That was an exercise in cynicism and sarcasm.. I guess I failed.

All I'm saying is it's not the government's place to tell ANYONE what they can or cannot do, as long as they are not hurting anyone else.. it's not their fucking business.

And it shouldn't be against the law to be a fat fuck or a glutinous pothead if that's your choice, that's your fucking choice. And you're not hurting anyone else by doing it. Once you start fucking with other people's lives.. then the line has been crossed.

You didn't fail. I was playing along.

If skinny people can eat at restaraunts and fat people can't, then it should only be illegal for potheads to smoke.
