We used to have just Constitutional rights here until special interest groups and NAZI tactics from the homostapo claimed we have rights based on what one wants

'I deserve a fairy-tale church wedding and a party in a castle - but there's no way I could afford it on benefits and I can't work because I'm overweight.'

Hmmmm ...

Maybe if you'd quit stuffing your pie-hole with excess food the SOMEBODY ELSE PAID FOR, you wouldn't be quite so 'overweight', and you could work.

Ever think of that?
