Michelle Obama Needs Sensitivity Training

WHAT ABOUT THE BULLIED OVERWEIGHT KIDS?

People are not thinking straight, so to speak, as 'gay' teen suicide escalates into a lightning rod issue. Communities are being rushed to implement something, anything, to stop the hatred, the bigotry, which can be seen in ... what?

Oh, sure, there are the actual bullies, the actual perpetrators of vicious verbal and physical harassment. But punishing those individuals alone would be way too easy, and under closer examination, the stories may not line up exactly as the 'queer' lobby wishes. So never let a good crisis go to waste, the revolutionaries say.

It's certainly understandable that people are grieving the loss of precious young lives. And yes, the hallways are increasingly uncivil in public schools. But the demands are over-the-top as the 'gay' lobby intends to use the tragedies to silence all unwanted opinions and to make sweeping claims not supported by hard evidence.

Why are we turning a blind eye, then, to another potentially explosive kind of rhetoric: the anti-chubby messages sent every day in our schools, now encouraged by our first lady?

Michelle Obama's 'Let's Move' initiative describes the health risks of childhood obesity as well as associated low self-esteem and social stigmatization. The research shows that overweight kids are at very high risk for being bullied.

OK, then, can we get some 'sensitivity training' arranged for the first lady next?
