Most people who are obese are that way because they haven't been taking care of themselves, and could fix on their own. Cripples and retards are not in the same group.
I just have to say that I think belittling people is wrong regardless of whether or not they are at fault for becoming whatever it is you're belittling them for.
You know, I am not a stickler for PC language, but is there some reason why we are saying cripple and retard as if they're not blatantly offensive terms?
