I think you're missing what I'm trying to say the same way hxc is, so I'll quote my reply to him:

The point I'm trying to make with this is that your judgement is based on nothing apart from a glimpse, and it is couched in ignorance and arrogance reinforced by your own personal experience.

ITT: Use the most extreme situation possible that affects a very small amount of the obese community.
Yes your cousin is exempt for the "well hes to lazy to lose the weight" Wouldn't you rather it though that a majority of overweight people were there because of an actual medical condition, instead of being lumped in with lazy fat people who are quitters and whiners? Maybe flip the majority? So when you see a fat person you say oh 90% of time they have an actual condition that limits there ability to lose weight, and only 10% of the time its because they are fat lazy slobs? Instead of the opposite?
No these are not real statistics. I'm sure someone will say something about it. Also Arg, no comment on the numbers I crunched to show you how little money you spend eating real food over mcD's? I put like 30 minutes into that come on man.

As BoredPayne said, there's no reason to give someone shit for their weight. You can't judge from their appearance only what the source of it is.

Arglax, you almost always choose to be fat, don't blame it on addiction. You choose to be addicted to it, addiction is something that can be over come, you aren't born fat and can never lose the weight, most likely you are born a normal child and you fuck up. It can be changed, so don't give people any sympathetic bullshit saying it's not their fault, because you are doing nothing but making them think they can't and shouldn't do anything about it.
People like you are way America is full of fat people, because you are saying it's not their fault... IT MOST LIKELY IS!!! We need to change peoples mindset on obesity, if it is frowned upon by the "healthy" portion of America, then the obese people who don't have a medical complication. (If you are picking on people because they are fat from a medical complication, go die in a ditch after sticking yourself on a sharp stick.) Will want to change their life style so people are no longer looking down on them right? It's human nature as I have stated before, doing something right and making people proud is something that feels good. Disappointing these you care about doesn't feel good, correct? I'm not saying bully the shit out of them until they change, that isn't going to solve anything. But sternly encourage them to change their life style will.
1/3 of America is a normal weight... How fucked up is that sentence, how disgusting does that make you feel if you are American? I bet it makes you feel kinda bad inside, right? But then if you are saying oh, you're fat but that's not your fault. You don't give a shit about the dignity of our country. If you care, you would go to every obese/over-weight person you know and tell them to get their shit together, (Unless of a medical complication.)

That's not his point. The point is you don't judge people over stastistics, or their look. You don't know them, you don't know every aspects of one's life with a single glance. So instead of judging promptly and vehiculing hate toward a group of people you find physically "inapropriate", you better think long and hard about yourself.
It might be a health condition,or not. Or maybe you'll just judge and hate on the "lazy fat guy" that will cure you future prostate cancer.
Obesity is bad because it's an "epidemic" health issue related to poor education and shitty society, not because some people "don't like fat persons". It is bad, and future generations have to be aware of it, but you don't judge someone for being sick in a moronic society that never taught him to eat healthy. (Pizza's a vegetable)
If you don't like obesity, raise awarness, don't shame fat people, keep your hateful comments for yourself and keep on doing some sports. Everybody will be thankful.
But if you feel like you have the right to judge everyone and be disrespectful for no reasons, well other people will use their right to judge you as a stupid shit talking piece of trash. (This is not me insulting you, I just pushed my exemple to the end)
