Michelle Claims Fat Kids Are A National Security Threat

[Harry Dresden]

And..................Your quote of me is out of context so I have no response for you.

its ok so far you havent said much anyway.....

Well you sure have but unfortunately it's all been pure BullShit ~
I think I'll just have to leave it at that.

oh really ......so there is not a hell of a lot of way overweight kids under 12 years old in this Country,thats just Bullshit?........Juvenile Diabetes and Type 2 Diabetes is not way up from 20 years ago?......thats just Bullshit?......i think the only person full of Bull and spouting shit is clueless **** like you....if im spouting BULLSHIT prove me wrong......otherwise take your own advice and leave it at that.....cause like i said.....you havent said much anyway.....

I don't eat Happy Meals myself but thanks for your concern. So be an ignorant Goose Stepper if you want. One day the Socialists/Progressives may come for you. Who will be around to help you?

There's that Nazis reference we were all waiting for. You sure don't disappoint in your predictability.

Sorry,but you do come off as an ignorant Government Goose Stepper. I just call em like i see em.

And what is it about my comments that make you put me in the Goose Stepper catagory? Please be specific.

"A National Security Threat." Yea that's a good one. Probably the worst case of shallow "Crisis" Fear Mongering i've ever seen. Socialists/Progressives just plain suck. Hopefully most of America is catching onto that.

Anyone else appreciate the Uber Irony here?

Fat Kids a National Security Threat? Still LMFAO over that one. Are Americans really so dumb that they would buy this stupid shit? My God,i really do fear for my Nation.

 

[Harry Dresden]

Explain why we have to have a weekend feeding program then?

Seems a floating argument from the left is not exactly plausible.

Kids are getting fat from lack of exercise and poor nutrition. A Big Mac alone does not give someone diabetes.

but being way overweight for a long time can.....and the longer you go as a fat person the harder it is to lose weight.....a 12 year old can drop weight a lot faster than a 30 year old,or a 50 year old who has been obese since they were 12......and since Juvenile Diabetes is up dramatically since 20 years ago....well you figure it out....

 

[Harry Dresden]

Where does "personal responsibility" stop, and "government" takes over? Once this has been established, then government can set standards on countless issues. This is where the problem lies IMO.

and i agree.....but this aint going to be much of a Country if say 30% of the population in say 20 years, are a bunch of 300 pounders, many who will have Diabetes as well as other issues associated with Obesity......so right now before that kind of shit happens,it might be a wise course of action for the Fed and State Governments teaming up with the Citizens to stop this now while its stoppable.....by making people aware of this and maybe start taking this stuff a little more seriously......thats all im trying to say...

I can tell you that kids are fatter than they were when I was a kid.

It's disgusting to see so many kids carrying to many extra pounds.

Now imagine what it looks like to those people in other places in the world where food is a serious problem.

Is it any wonder at all why so many people resent the West?

Their kids are starving, ours are developing diabetes becuase we feed them so much junk food.

You must have missed Truthmatters' thread stating that we, as a nation, are starving

 

[hortysir]

It would be cool if, instead of partisan sniping, we could actually address the root issue. Just an idea - albeit a radical one.

Fat kids become fat adults - with a massive impact on our society. The 'national security' thing is nonsense but the sentiments are not. We desperately need to educate parents - and children - about why healthy eating is important. That will be where the left and right will split. The left will want to ban shit and legislate, the right will want to educate and provide information to help people make wise choices.

WADR, Cali, can you back up the bolded part?
Because I've seen the "fat kids" at my high school reunions and they ain't fat no more!

We're too fat on one hand...and have long food lines on the other...

Which is it?

Just pass another stupid Law allowing the Government to intrude in your life. WTG stupid Goose Stepping America.

Have the Twinkie Control Police taken over yet?

Just another reason to home school.

Yep. Relying upon Government isn't getting the job done. They're more beholden to Unions, and bureaucrats to dictate the terms. They're 180 degrees out.

she should have said SOME fat kids become fat adults....but then so have some skinny kids......but even so that percentage has probably increased since you went to school....

 

[hortysir]

Are you calling me old?


There does seem to be more fat kids than there was back then.
Just like it seems like females are more 'endowed' than they were.....

Horty.... even if you were in grade school in the eighties you would notice there are more overweight kids today........and yes the girls are filling out faster then they were when i went to school....

 

[Stephanie]

if the "Adults" can handle this, WHY are there more obese kids under the age of 10 then there has ever been?.....and why is Diabetes way up among that same age group?.....why has Diabetes for ALL age groups gone up?....the Adults are handling it real well aren't they?....most of those "Adults" are either obese themselves OR just plain overweight and i would not doubt that a good percentage of them are PRE-Diabetic and they dont even know it....its just a matter of time for them and unfortunately their kids also....

Still not a Government issue. The Government has much bigger things to worry about. No pun intended.

it isnt?....they cant try and get people to realise whats happening health wise?.....they cant put out public service messages telling people this?.....it wont be much of a Govt if 30-50% of the people are suffering from the health issues that Obesity and Diabetes brings on will it?.....and since its happening at an earlier age,all the problems associated with these too problems,will set in, in midlife instead of old age.....thats great aint it?.....the Govt should ignore a National Health problem because its not in the Constitution.....does not the Constitution say....."promote the general Welfare"?......what does that mean?..... is not the HEALTH of the Citizens of this Country something that affects the General Welfare of the Country?....the US Govt. has every right to be concerned about the health of its Citizens.....without those Citizens the Govt aint worth shit.....i cant believe the amount of people here who think this is something to just let happen....who gives a shit.....as Spock would say.....FASCINATING......

holy smokes, scary shit.
you're saying we are the PROPERTY of the Federal Guberment.
how bout that folks, did you know you were OWNED?

That is where this all started.

Feed The Children: U.S. Programs

"Children across the country are going without food"

how are they getting fat if they are going without food?
