Childhood obesity does not concern me nearly as much as adult stupidity.
Wish the freakish looking lesbo clown would work on that issue first.

They will talk a lot, throw large cash gifts at the ward csars, and nothing will change.

How about protecting black babies and children from being murdered, before they can even grow up to be fat?

I don’t even think her intentions are good. Lightfoot is fussing about sugary drinks only because she doesn’t want to deal with Chicago’ s real problems. This is just another case of a Leftist putting on a show to distract the masses.

Yeah. So you had to buy two drinks instead of just one so you could get the same amount of sugar. Bloomie and the lefties do not understand human nature/ingenuity at all. They are morons.

She should start with Governor Pritzker who looks like he doesn’t miss many meals. He sets a poor example for the youth.

Lets’ start with limiting snap and welfare food to fresh vegetables and fruits, no processed foods, no sugary foods, no fast food and no soft drinks.

Leftists always want to “crack down” on things.

Not address. Not review.

Crack down.

I know the cause of most childhood obesity. I am retired and currently watching my one year old grandson. I have so much respect for moms after this. It is really hard work keeping up with him. After three weeks I am beginning to see what is probably happening out there. The kids get a little grouchy and they are given food to quiet them down. It is an easy way out but in the long run it is a really bad habit. You are taught that every time you become anxious find some food to relax you.

“Lightfoot wants to crack down on childhood obesity”

This is good news for citizens on the perimeter outside Chicago. Ever since the Mexicans beat the crap out of Groot’s BLM racists in May, 2020, Mayor Groot has limited her BLM savages to destroying only the Chicago ghetto and woke white businesses and no more.

For background, Mayor Groot ordered her BLM racists to attack Mexican neighborhoods and businesses back on May, 2020. The Mexicans set up barricades on the roads and manned them with men carrying AKs. They beat the hell out of Groot’s racist savages and chased them back into their ghettos.

Oddly, I have no issue with this.

Ghetto kids subsist on soda and McDonalds.

“Stop the EBT cards. Should I have said that?”

You can keep EBT, just allow them to only be redeemable at state run stores that only sell beans, rice, meat, milk, vegetables, fruits, and other non processed staples which has a parking lot with stalls too small to fit escalades or other luxury SUVs

Cut down on childhood obesity so the kids are less likely to catch lead being slung by her political supporters?

In Chicago they need them to say “Groot says.”

"I am Groot."
