The only reason I know about Maine is that I'm going to school there. The dean of the University of Southern Maine just made a big-deal announcement of the change. Academia supports such PC-inspired efforts.

Yeah, to like Indigenous Peoples. OH. Doesn't quite roll off the tongue now does it? James, I'm just a few miles up the coast from your departmental echo chamber. Let me know when you are in residence and I'll buy the beverages.

Will be there again January 10-19. Days will be pretty busy, but I could meet for a drink or dinner. All the events will be at the Harasseeket Inn in Freeport, where I'll be staying.

Jim There was a fair amount of pressure last year, to change the name of Columbus and they had to put a guard on the statue of Christopher Columbus at City Hall because a bunch of liberals were threatening to destroy it. This year it has been quiet. Keith

So these black women became very obese in 3 years...hmmmm
She states no good Heath care is available, I think she's speaking of the Obama care right? President Trump hasn't changed the Obama health care since the Democratic Party block him from doing so...She must be speaking of what Obama did to her...
She was citing a study done in the 90's, wasn't Clinton president 93 on through the beginning of 2000 How could it be that's impossible I'm sure she voted for Clinton back than obviously there should not have been any racial stress as she stated that the presidents status polarizing figure that contributes to issues of racial stress people of color...hmm mind bending how is this study possible if done in the 90's when Clinton was in office...Stupid dumb democrats
In a separate interview, Cooper told CampusReform.org she was citing 1990s information from Dr. Arline Geronimus, a public health research professor at the University of Michigan.
Geronimus “argues pretty convincingly that black women have physiological stress responses to racial stimuli and this affects our long-term health,” Cooper said.
I was citing this body of work and the president’s status as a racially polarizing figure that contributes to issues of racial stress for people of color.”
Thought I was a good trapper until I started trapping coyotes...... Thought I was a good bowhunter until I targeted mature bucks....

Jarhead He's not my hero. i called you ignorant because your statement was, well...ignorant. Perhaps immature would have been a better response? The fact that the attention-craving forum troll cheered your response speaks to his maturity level as well, don't you think? Go Jarhead!

That's because it's cheaper to eat artificial garbage than to eat healthy. You can buy 2000 calories worth of artificial junk at McDonalds for 10 dollars or less, but to but 2000 calories worth of fresh fruits, veggies, and healthy meats costs a lot more.

That's because it's cheaper to eat artificial garbage than to eat healthy. You can buy 2000 calories worth of artificial junk at McDonalds for 10 dollars or less, but to but 2000 calories worth of fresh fruits, veggies, and healthy meats costs a lot more.
You're going to be hard pressed to eat 2000 calories worth of fruits and veggies in one sitting like you would a McD's meal... So yes, you'll pay more for healthier food, but it will stretch farther. So your unit cost is going to be less.
But real healthy food takes some time and effort. Pop tarts and McD's are easy and take little to no effort... And they "taste" better.

Edit: I just checked... 20 lb bag of pinto beans is $13.76 at the local China Mart... That'll make several meals for several people.

Poor people are fat, because they don't burn calories at work. How hard is that to figure out? If they were truly poor and starving they would not be fat either.

Heallthy food will go further, yes. You can buy a bunch of beans for 10 dollars, but you've gotta eat a whole lotta beans to get the same amount of fat and calories and protein that you'd get from one Big Breakfast at the mac shack.

Plenty of people work by sitting at a desk all day staring at a screen, and are skinny. And I've worked with plenty of obese and even morbidly obese auto mechanics who worked hard all day long. I'm sure there's plenty of people on this forum who are obese and work hard every day. I'm not sure your theory holds water.

It is not a theory. It is an equation. If you burn more calories than you take in you will not gain weight. Most people who have jobs will burn more calories per day than people who don't have jobs. Not everybody though.
Starving people will not stay fat very long.

Starving people will not stay fat very long. No arguments there. I don't like the idea of food stamps at all. We've helped people occasionally with groceries. You can buy groceries on amazon and have them sent anonymously very easily. But we only do it for people we know actually need the help. Charity comes from the heart, not from having the government rip money out of your paycheck by force. If the government took less money out of my paycheck, I'd be able to help more people who actually need help. Without food stamps, people who *wont* work can starve, those who *can't* work can get help from family/friends/church/charity, the way it should be.

You're better off eating the beans... And chances are if I'm paying for their groceries, I'm picking up the tab for their healthcare too. So they can do without the large Coke and fries that come with the Big Mac. Mike

It's nearly impossible to improve your life when you blame someone else for your failings, rather than accepting that you are truly responsible, stepping up and changing what needs to be improved in your own life yourself. The democrats have destroyed generations of blacks by teaching then that they are powerless to improve their own station in life. Blacks should be taught they are capable as anyone else. Their lives would soon greatly improve.
Keith Perfectly stated.
