[QUOTE="BluRaySS, post: 1479998, member: 13311"] Totally right on the "accepting" lol, Brain fart! Not even real sure what the hell I was thinking tossing that one in there. At 6' 1" 300lbs it sounds as if you are contributing to the problem on those lists. I don't mean that in a mean way, but really. Who cares if people choose to live that way or are naturally of greater mass. My point is, who are those lists supposed to be geared towards? Are they supposed to make those contributing to them feel bad, or outrage and embellish those on the other side of the scale? As for many of the other lists, I think Oklahoma and it's design helps to put us up there. I think MANY of these other states pad their numbers or fail to report a lot. Per capita there is no way we should be that high up on a lot of those. As for the Muslim thing well.... I know there is no way to convince you of a lot of this. It's something some of us have lived and seen through and through. I'm not speaking just of those who have deployed. The Muslim faith has been a menace to man since it's conception. It's no coincidence that every country that follows this faith is at war, recovering from one, or planning one. Hell, the middle east has been at war with each other for a thousand years! I don't jump on bandwagons. That is not narrow minded thinking man.... As I stated before, I don't like it, but the facts are what they are, and there is nothing so far to say otherwise. I witnessed LOTS of nice calm peace loving muslims grab up arms and jump on loaded taliban trucks. All it took was a little religious rally and POOF they were the enemy. The sense of entitlement and hypocrisy is higher here. I hope that for many it is due to seeing what has been lost, more than just a planted thought by others.... Strangely enough I think we are actually closer to agreeing on a lot of this than we think. lol, but hey I won't try to persuade you or herd you into the pen:D [/QUOTE]
