^^^^Yup


Also, like many other childhood problems, obesity disproportionally effects on a socio-economic scale. Poorer, and thus blacker, children tend to be eating more unhealthy because unhealthy food is more affordable. Of course that racist hick from Alaska won't know shtein about it.

No. Are you saying black kids are more apt to eat unhealthy because the food is cheaper? Cmon'. That just isn't true. It's all kids from all walks of life. Junk food, fast food and school lunches are the main culprits here, as are parents that are either too lazy or just uneducated as to whats healthy and whats not. It's not any more expensive to eat less and more healthy food.

Uhhhh...yes, it is true. The children that have seen the biggest increase in obesity over the last 10 years have been inner city children, which also means minority children. Yes, it's happening to all children, but it's a bigger problem amongst African American and Hispanic kids. You're arguing about something that has been researched and proven, it's not just an opinion of mine.

Actually, I'm all for semantics.

What could anyone possibly have against Michelle Obama?  She's perfectly innocuous. 

She's a filthy racist.

Which is strange because I figured they spent their days playing basketball and running from the cops.

Couldn't stay in character forever, could you stillupfront?

[lurking wierdo]

It was purely sarcasm, and if I must say so, brilliant sarcasm. You find one person (inner-city or otherwise) who HONESTLY doesn't get my sarcasm and I will gladly send you 5 dollars

By the way. I have been searching around the board and stillupfront seems to be a substitution for something but I am not exactly sure what it is that you called me.

[General_Failure]

I could use five dollars. Fork it over.

I don't get it.

[lurking wierdo]
