Yet More Liberty, Republican Style

W. T. Mayhall, Jr.
Here we have W. T. Mayhall, Jr., a Republican in the Mississippi House of Representatives who has proposed a bill to bar the obese from eating in restaurants.
Anyone with a Body-Mass Index of 30 would be considered obese. A 5'8" person weight 197 pounds (as an example) has a BMI of 30.

Restaurants would be required to keep records of who has a BMI of 30 or more.

How about a bill banning Republicans from eating in restaurants? I think that would be much nicer.
