She finally shows up in her van and a whole tribe of people tumble out.She gives me the application and it now turns out that mom, dad, an uncle, an aunt, the autistic son AND a second son who is so obese at age 9 he's been diagnosed with sleep apnea (according to mom) all believe they'll be living in my rental (STRIKE TWO).

@Kimberly TI checked my NOLO  Every Landlord's Legal Guide, and this is what it said:...The courts in California have construed the Unruh Act to forbid all discrimination on the basis of one's personal characteristic or trait.Even if you live in a state that does not specifically outlaw arbitrary discrimination, there is a very strong practical reason why you should not engage in arbitrary discrimination-- for example, based on obesity, occupation, or style of dress.  

Obesity and overindulgence overall, comes to mind:http://www.consumeraffairs.com/news04/2008/07/obes...Study: 86 Percent of Americans Could Be Obese by 2030"Most adults in the U.S. will be overweight or obese by 2030, with related health care spending projected to be as much as $956.9 billion, according to researchers at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), and the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine.Their results are published in the July 2008 online issue of Obesity."

You know, the countries that have the largest military budgets also tend to have the highest rates of obesity...if we cut our military budgets, will we all get thinner? 

If she is overweight or obese, a loose toilet base can result from the excessive weight on it and is a part of doing business and it needs to be repaired. 

It was a $450 repair overall.So, now I'm wondering if obesity is a protected class. 

Indecision and procrastination are a disease worse than obesity (although the first leads to the second).

A person with no money and a low credit score asking how to buy a 96 unit building TODAY is like someone that’s morbidly obese asking how they can prepare to run a marathon next week.

People are Obese because they choose to be obese!

Also people that are obese, and the elderly.
