That could be McDonalds new slogan

"Stoping poeple from being drafted since 2004."

They tend not to draft people that have asthma (they're can be a liability). They don't take people that are flat-footed. They won't put you within the deployed troops if you don't have good upper-body strength, it's more likely they'd stick you in a factory or at a desk. There are some other criteria to the process as well (full-time ministers can't be drafted, things like that).

...Still, if they are over-weight, would they still be drafted? Even if they are a little chubby... where does the line get drawn?

Upper-body strengh?! I'm still in then...

Still, would you really want a bunch of fat ppl running around on a battlefeild? (or should I say wobbling) .. Like how will they hide in the grass ect. They would slow down the other troops. Plus all the extra money. Making bigger uniforms. More food. Flooding the toilets everytime they take a shit. Breaking the cheap coats. ect. fat ppl are a nuisence to the army. ^^

- So get fat and not die in the army! but die from a heart attack or stroke. Personnally I'd rather die from a bullet then McDonalds, My opinion though.

Did you know that being fat doesn't affect how fast a person is? Although fat people deneraly are slower than thin.

Hmmm.. I find that extremely hard to believe.

Fat affects a persons health all around.

Being fat does affect how fast you are. Fat people are generally more unfit than the aveage slim person. Dunno where you come up with all these things fuzz.

Not necessarily, because some fat people, are just born that way. But being fat does affect how fast you are, because there's more weight. It doesn't affect how fat you are though.

It is VERY VERY rare to see a fat person with excelent speed, agility and strength.

Some people are fat due to genetics, but they are still unhealthy.

fat, due to genetects haha.. no it's cos your parents are fat. So they eat more food.. so your raised to eat alot of food like them. There is no such thing as just being fat for no reason or cos its in your back round.. your fat because you eat and thats about it.

Well you can be more prone to obesity through genetics. Your parents metabolism can be passed on...

Yes it can. I know very fit people who are fat, and due to their parents being large, they can't be skinny. It's the same with everything about your body. A lot of it comes from your background.

A lot of over weight people dont have Speed and agility but their strength is sometimes very good.
