It's a sad fact of life now. Personal responsibility is waning and so many people want to blame everybody and everything else for their own choices. There's always some lawyer ready to sue and try to get a few bucks from someone who did nothing wrong. Some lawyers know they won't win the case but make their living off settlements. Blaming the restaurants for selling food that's fattening is ridiculous. Restaurants aren't the problem. Rep. Read wasted time and money that could have been spent on better things just to get himself some publicity. It doesn't speak well of Mississippi that they elected an idiot like John Read to represent them. I would hope they don't make the same mistake again.
