Default Prejudice against obese people?

This thought came after watching a CSI episode a few days ago.

Anyways, how many of you, as lifters and health concious people, are prejudice towards overweight and obese people?

IMO, I feel like there are a few people who can't help it because of certain diseases, and the few I see in the gym I have TONS of respect for, for doing something about something they want to change. Almost moreso then the built guys, since it takes guts to come to a gym when you are obese or out of shape. For the majority of obese people willing to do nothing and hold contempt towards a society for discouraging sloth and, well, people like them, I have no problem making fun of them and overall not tolerating them. Especially those willing to ***** and moan about not being equal, and not wanting to pay for that extra plane seat because you can't fit in one.

BTW if anyone can find the online article on t-nation about this kind of thing, can you post the link? I lost it

Discuss!
