Stupid Fat People Lose McDonald’s Law Suit

A federal judge Thursday threw out a class-action lawsuit by two Bronx teenagers claiming McDonald’s used false advertising and that the chain’s food made them fat and contributed to their health problems.

In his ruling, U.S. District Court Judge Robert Sweet said, “If a person knows or should know that eating copious orders of super-sized McDonald’s products is unhealthy and may result in weight gain, it is not the place of the law to protect them from their own excesses.”

It’s about time common sense ruled.
