Mississippi to Ban Feeding the Obese

"Freedom fries." How hollow that sounds.

The time is 7:15. You are under arrest for breach of the Bacon & Cheese Burger Patriot Act. You have the duty to remain silent (and hungry). Anything you say, can and will be tortured out of you. You do not have the right to an attorney. None will be afforded to you. Now lay down those onion rings and put your greasy hands behind your back!!

Mississippi to Ban Feeding the Obese
I'm sure there were some of you out there that thought, "Gee, Widge, things aren't that bad with government.
Surely
Right.
Scarlett Johansson from The Nanny Diaries
Submitted as Exhibit B: House Bill 282 from the State of Mississippi. The following text has been retyped to actually be in upper and lower case letters so it doesn't look like the bill in question is shouting at you even though, in reality, it is:
"An act to prohibit certain food establishments from serving food to any person who is obese, based on criteria prescribed by the State Department of Health; to direct the Department to prepare written materials that describe and explain the criteria for determining whether a person is obese and to provide those materials to the food establishments; to direct the Department to monitor the food establishments for compliance with the provisions of this act; and for related purposes."
