I was doing that the other day while my wife was watching Ace Ventura... Haven't seen it in probably 20 years, doesn't stop me... Your gun is digging into my hip...
Fuck off. My favorite meal of the day is breakfast. I've been doing without it in an attempt to lose weight for 2 years now. Also making it a point to walk on a treadmill at work twice a day. It is measurable fact I eat less now than I did 2 years ago, and am more active, and yet my weight continues to hover around 300 pounds. 5 years ago I quit smoking cold turkey after 20 years, so it's not like I lack willpower. But go ahead, tell me all about it.
What you're talking about boils down to who to trust. Unfortunately, governments are notorious for abusing such trust. I can't fault anyone who questions the way things are, and why- assuming of course that they are receptive to answers other than "it's a government conspiracy to control us." Not that that's never true, but it's certainly not always true.
Pick up that can.
