So you hate someone based on their looks--not their personality, not their beliefs, just their appearance.
I don't "hate" them, they just sicken me.

What's your medical degree in that you're knowledge of the human body is so great you can tell just by looking at someone that they are unhealthy--to the extent that you call abuse?
It hardly takes a qualified doctor to see when a small child is obese

I assume you feel the same way about someone who was speeding and got into a car accident because they could have avoided it right?
Yea but one-off mistakes aren't so bad, everyone makes them. Being fat is a continuous, day by day decision to burden the health system. Not a moment of stupidity.

So don't take the bus, drive yourself, or walk. Do you feel the same hatred when you have to sit next to someone who is healthy but has broad shoulders? I somehow doubt you feel the same way as if you had to sit next to some "fatass".
So I should boycott buses on the off chance a fat person will sit next to me?

I've never sat next to someone fit that smells bad... [rolleyes]
Lucky you.

How about posting up a picture of yourself shirtless and letting the internet pick you apart based solely upon your looks--I'm guessing that plenty of people can find flaws in your appearance.
I've got many a flaws thanks I don't think it would shed anything new. Anyway the point is I think people shouldn't be hated on/ridiculed for things they can't help (ie born that way) but self-inflicted flaws like rolls of fat hanging from every seam of your clothes then yea.

The point I'm trying to get across is that we're all human--we're all different, discriminating against someone based solely on their appearance is wrong. There is no difference in the act of calling someone a fatass as calling someone a ******, you're making a decision about the person's quality based on their appearance regardless of "if they can help it" or not.
Well you're point was badly done. I didn't say I hate all/any people based on flaws in appearances, just fat people who have 100% choice in not being that way. If they're happy with it fine, good for them, I'm still allowed to say what I think about them.
