Fat Man Sues McDonald's Over Non-Hire

Update: Farkers weigh in on this story.

Connor, who weighs 420 pounds, claims that McDonald's violated the laws when it regarded him as morbidly obese and refused to hire him based on that perception.

The urge to blame McDonald's for not only causing this man's obesity then denying him a job because of his weight is almost too great to overcome but overcome it I must. Just like the kids who tried to sue McD's because they didn't know that eating every meal there was a bad thing, I believe everyone is responsible for there own actions excluding the criminal insane ie Lex Luthor and Dubya.
If you are physically incapable of doing a job because you weigh over 400 lbs then perhaps your biggest problem isn't some evil fast food manager denying you a slave wage job.
