What Do You Think Of The Proposed Mississippi Law To Ban Restaurants From Serving Obese Individuals?

53.4 %    Give me a break. My gosh that is so ridiculous -- plus it's discrimination    

25.0 %     Whatever happened to personal responsibility?      

17.1 %      It’s a bit over-the-top, but the reality is that something needs to be done about this public health crisis.       

4.5 %      I agree – obesity costs us literally billions of dollars each year.

Number of Voters   :  292

There are so many injustices out there and When it comes to food, maybe a better focus would be on the people who can not afford to eat, on the children that go to school hungry. Not serving obese people would be another way of taking away our freedom to choose not to say "let's keep discrimination alive.....
