STILL HEAT OVER THE FAT COPS
Gluttony and anger.....and the messenger....
Sometimes, an insult is the best way to 'get' the message. I think I was wrong to think that the person 'Stephanie' who wrote angrily about me using 'nom de plume' was an angry wife/lover of one of those unfortunate overweight cops. I've thought about it and now think, pitifully, it's probably one of the overweight cops.
Let's say that I am righteous and that I insult the overweight officers in the force(I don't think the military would stand for anyone in those sizes in their forces)...wouldn't it be better if the insults resulted in one or two of them got so angry at me that they actually went on a diet and proved me wrong and lived happily there after?
Look at today's newspaper. Look at the ages of those that have passed away. They're not in their seventies or eighties...and not all of them died of cancer or some rare disease...a good number of them died of diabetes...most being totally preventable!
So, there's gluttony...living to eat and not eating to live......and anger....aimed at the messenger rather than looking for truth in the message and doing something about it. If this argument can save one life, I can stand all the insults hurled at me.....I'm not perfect...and I wasn't always thin....I have walked in the shoes of those men so I've walked the walk!

There is so much faulty logic in your "anti-fat cop" campaign that I do not know where to begin. I remember this being an issue years ago when your page was all pink. But this claim that insulting fat people will somehow get them to all of the sudden live a healthy lifestyle is just plain absurd. Think about it... if insults cured obesity, there would be no such thing as fat children in our school... because those kids get a barrage of insults everyday. It is sad that the rate of diabetes and coronary artery disease is killing us at a younger and younger age, and I agree that something definitely must be done, but you my dear need to have a little more humilty (I believe to be one of the seven virtues) in your approach to this epidemic. Our Chamorro culture centers around food... we celebrate every stage of life from conception to death with food. After church our families go out to eat. We have hundreds of years of Chamorro culture that we're up against, and it's going to take more than insulting big people to take care of this problem. Really, all I sense from you is pride (another deadly sin). Every large person you bring up in your comments comes with a shirt size like 9XXX. There is no sense of caring in your malicious postings towards obese people... so stop thinking you're lending a hand in the health of our island. Your comments are just plain ridiculous.

Like I said on my last post. Ditto again. You either have a deep seated hate for our finest or just the opposite. You have a deep seated lust for them and you manifest those feelings in your site. Either way you have a problem and seriously, you need help lady or man or whoever you are. PLEASE seek the help that you need before it gets worse.
