Fast Food Ban Gains Support Among City Lawmakers

Submitted by Donald S Dittmer, Jul 31, 2008 03:32

What happened to "making one's own choice?" For the children that are obese, that is a problem of the parents. Where are the parents that allow their children, outside of medical problems, to go to any place with money to get like that? Where's the parent responsibility? Why aren't the parents being held responsible for the upbringing of their children? This is just as stupid as banning certain fats and other substances from food and etc. Let the people have the freedom to make their own choices. This is still America the last time I looked out the door.
