But on Thursday, the New York City council passed a bill that would make it illegal to discriminate against height and weight in housing, employment, and public accommodations.

Notice they excluded the fashion industry, which is one of THE greatest contributors to young girls’ self-image problems, anorexia, bulimia, and other problems.

How come the fashion industry can’t hire fat chicks????? Look out for 300 pound stews on airplane flights.... How many can they fit onboard before the plane goes down????

Sturgeon's Law states that "ninety percent of everything is crap", which certainly applies to fashion. Like Hollywood, New York City's fashion industry constantly throws tons of crap on the wall to see what sticks, in a desperate attempt to find the 10% that will sell and pay all their bills.

Conservatives love to blame various industries for America's cultural decline, but here's a different take: these industries are doing what they've always done to survive. It's the idiot customers that are really to blame for what sticks. While it won't win over the other side, conservatives might put blame squarely on where it belongs: the millions of customers of crap. The problem isn't the gun, it's the people pulling the trigger.
