Yeah time to start deporting some folks.
BS!

It's way past time to beating them like cops did in Chicago in !968. Seriously, beat them until they piss all over themselves.

Deportation is the last thing you do.


Why can't we have both?

That graph stops in 2014. That's nearly a decade ago. Interesting though.

Her ideology is the mental illness.

Someone needs to put an end to this pronouns bull****, its
just a bunch of *******s trying to make life difficult for
others.

It doesn't trigger her to be called she, it just gives her a crutch to bully and abuse others.

That's all this is, a bully pulpit for narcisist to abuse innocent people.


This woman was drunk off her ass and driving the wrong way and could have easily killed someone.
She could care less about that, the only issue here and only cared for her ability to abuse others with
her forced pronouns and identity supremacy.

Especially for folks that went to college in say the mid 1980's or earlier, the student who was actually fat was rare.

Walk on a major campus in 2023 and there are fattys everywhere.

My dad went to college in the 40's. In his yearbooks there are NO fat people. None, they aren't rare,
they didn't exist.

America radically changed just in about 25 years from 1990 to the 2010s in terms of obesity

Still not sure what to make of that

The 80s. The last great decade. Teens could do their stupid things, learn from them and not have it broadcast to the whole world in a nanosecond. Men embraced their masculinity, women cherished their femininity. College was more affordable, illegals got deported and if a man walked into a women's bathroom, they got their ass beat.

Too many people not moving enough during the day and living off a diet of fast food and mocha lattes.

When I was a kid, on a nice and sunny 73 degree day, I'd see other kids out playing or riding bikes, the neighbors watering or cutting their lawn or outside playing pitch with their kids. Now-a-days, the neighborhood is a ghost town. Kids inside playing video games, parents hiring guys to mow their lawn, parents not throwing the ball with Jr.

Sad state

I'm sure that is a small part of it but people didnt go to gyms or workout more in the 80s. The food is what has changed and a major part of that was when McDonalds moved away from frying the fries in beef tallow and changed to seed oils. That coupled with the move away from cane sugar to high fructose corn syrup and we have out of control obesity. Europe has banned these type of things but we have lobbyists here that want to keep these things going at the detriment to the health of everyone.

Yea, I come to the conclusion that it is the food.

People in Europe are not living much different from Americans these days....internet, fast food, etc.

And yet they are a lot skinner.....it has to be the food. Seed Oils, processed sugar, etc.

Except women wanted broad shoulders like men. Women's shoulder pads were very popular in the 80's.

Was talking about this weekend ... same conclusion, i.e. Europe much less reliant on processed foods. I think the data would show higher caloric natural foods much better for weight gain than lower caloric processed foods.

Except euros walk orders of magnitude more than Americans. We drive everywhere and they don't.

Corret, but Americans in the 80s and 90s didnt walk more. We still drove everywhere and had fast food. The things that are different at seed oils, processed foods, HFCS in everything, GMO's in everything, Added hormones in meat, bigger portions etc. Europe doesnt have beef on steroids, seed oils, HFCS, GMOs, red dye 40 etc.

Look at HS football, Odessa Permian was winning state championships with 190 lb linemen in the 80's.

Now every 2A school deep in the playoffs have 5 or 6, 240 lb or more linemen, there is a lot of very obese people now, even kids.

1. That really is only true of densely packed urban environments…and even then they use a lot of trains. So it's not like they are walking 30 miles a day in exercise.

I've been to Rome, London, Paris….I was not getting a ton of exercise just walking 1-2 blocks to the subway line.

2. Europe has actually become more car dependent over the past 30 years than it was in the past.

"Americans drove for 85 percent of their daily trips, compared to car trip shares of 65 percent in Europe."

Even the ones that dont use cars use Vespas and motorbikes. Everyone in Rome and Paris has them…that is like a car but without protection.

You get not exercise walking out your door and driving that around all day.






3. Again, the food is the only thing that can not be accounted for.

When I was in Europe I basically ate all day every day…gorged myself…came back home and I had lost 5lbs

It was strange

"There are 2 genders"

would be considered hate speech according to the left.

Trying to control everyone's thoughts and words...this is how you get Trump.
