Have you been to Portugal? The stigma of a heroin user is strong there. You know why? Because we don't want heroin users. I'm a libertarian. 100% in favor of allowing people to own their own body (i.e. they can put in whatever they want) Being fat isn't a crime. There is no war on fatness. There is simply a stigma. A stigma to dissuade people. It works. It worked for me. I know other people who got their shit in gear because they were tired of not getting the respect they felt they deserve. I come from a hard background. The Healthy while Fat is just an excuse to want to gain acceptance of unhealthy behavior. No it won't work. Sure, cigarette smokers come from shitty backgrounds (I was one). But getting looked down on was a major reason for me to quit. Are there weak people who will forever smoke and feel bad? Yes. I have no answer for them. But I know we can't start accpeting cigarette smokers. Or more people will smoke. That is a totally different thing than using VIOLENCE to make it so someone can't access their vice. I 100% support people engaging in vices. I also think we should as a society be more accepting of vices. Because they have good and bad. Some of the best chefs I've known are fat. Some of my favorite music was made on heroin.
