Do American schools now let fat girls become cheerleaders?
You would think schools would like to promote health and wellness rather than gluttony?
8 AnswersPolls & Surveys6 years agoShould the US continue to exclude obese people from discrimination laws?
Currently, a business or institution can legally discriminate against these fat and overweight people in society. However, there are groups trying to make being fat and repulsive acceptable. Should the Supreme court and legal system consider protecting these people? Is it a disability or just the sin of gluttony and selfishness?
7 AnswersLaw & Ethics6 years agoIs Obesity a disease or just the sin of gluttony?
The "big bones" and "thyroid issues" are just excuses for being a a "pig person"?
26 AnswersOther - Health6 years agoWhy can't we send our criminals all to the Mideast heavily armed like in the "Dirty Dozen" movie?
Like if we sent them drugs and alcohol as well with frequent food drops, wouldn't they kick ISIS butt?
1 AnswerPolitics6 years agoWill natural blondes and redheads no longer exist in 200 years?
I heard with all the immigrants mating with the northern tribes, they will no longer exist...only mongrels left?
11 AnswersAnthropology6 years agoIs it true, that legally, you can still discriminate against fat people and smokers in America?
I still don;t like either, and I would feel much more comfortable in my distain towards these two groups
3 AnswersSociology6 years agoAre obese people the next group to claim discrimination and start suing businesses?
According to current law, you cannot discriminate against people for race, religion and sexual orientation...but you can still not hire the fat person whose appearance and personal habits are disgusting. There is no such thing as "big bone" or "thyroid issues"...they just enjoy the sin of gluttony.
But will they with their majority increasing in the US, try to create laws in their favor??? ie: getting 2 seats on airplanes, becoming stewardesses and all you can restaurant menus without exceptions?
4 AnswersLaw & Ethics6 years agoIs being Obese now considered a disability in the eyes of the law?
If a fat person does not get hired as a model, stewardess or any job that demands a body figure deemed attractive by society, now have a right to sue?
6 AnswersLaw & Ethics6 years agoWho picks out Hillary Clinton's warddrobe?
She is always wearing these thick wool skirt outfits with buttons at least the size of silver dollars like church bazaar ladies in South Dakota or these outdated pantsuits. Is there some crazy designer out there who is an old friend? Why can't she get a fashionable gay, Washington person with some fashion sense like Michelle Obama has?
10 AnswersOther - Politics & Government6 years agoWhich of the Republican Presidential candidates are the likely Illuminati members or sponsees?
My friend says watch the way they shake hands in some photos. By reviewing photos, he insists that Scott Walker is allied with the Kock brothers (definitely Illuminati) and that Trump is a leading member...suggesting that Trump will be the nominee and Walker the VP?
3 AnswersMythology & Folklore6 years agoWhat should/can you do when you see a mother smacking their kid in public?
I work as a cashier and it seems that a certain minority known for their violent cultural habits, have no problem in stopping a crying child by smacking them on the head or shaking them vigorously until they stop. To me, this is a reason why they grow up without a care about physical violence.
I'd like to call children's services or the cops when I see this, but my manager says it's none of my business. What is the moral thing to do???
4 AnswersPsychology6 years agoIf Texas were to decide to secede, which side would you fight on or support troops?
My guess is that it would end up 49 National Guard troops against one. Texas's armory can't be that large.
5 AnswersPolitics6 years agoDoes Scott Walker hate funding education because he resents getting kicked out of college?
He cut a quarter billion out of the University of Wisconsin's budget, slashed public education funding and busted up the teacher's union in Wisconsin. He is favorable for setting up alternative Christian schools for the rich and there are many incentives to create them (as well as more jails)
In this day and age, where we will depend on the youth of today to run this country, what drives Walker to do this other than what the Kock brothers direct him to do?
10 AnswersPolitics6 years agoIs it still legal to discriminate against fat people in the US for food service?
I work at a restaurant & bar where the manager refuses to hire fat people. He insists that people fill applications in person, takes a sneak peek at them and then either throws the application inot the "fat" basket (his wastebasket) or calls them in for an interview. He says most people do not find fat people speedy or attractive and slovenly in their habits. He insists they are no laws preventing their discrimination because the constitution only covers, race religion and now sexual preference. (I have to admit he won't hire gay looking people because they might bleed onto people's food and this could give them Aids and thus make him liable.)
Granted I work for a dork, but people flock here because we're good-looking fast and friendly.
Is he correct in not breaking any laws simply for not hiring fatties?

4 AnswersSociology6 years agoHow exactly does one get $40000 a year from welfare?
I've heard this from several conservatives, but how can it be done? Does this add up food stamps, free housing, insurance and money for each additional baby you have without a father or other outside support?
I think kids should learn this in high school as an alternative to working and to add children to their race for greater voting power. in the future
