Yea, but since when is FAT a disability?
***

I can see a day, in this age of entitlements, when it will be. In fact, obesity may already qualify now as a disability in some situations.

Usually, it’s not the obesity, but the health problems that accompany it, which cause the disability — e.g., heart and lung problems, amputations from diabetes, etc.

I believe Obesity is already considered a disability and therefore falls under the ADA.
