People of Walmart Site Offensive

If you visit many social networking sites, or if your friends forward 'funny' stuff to you, you have probably already heard of the People of Walmart site [peopleofwalmart.com] and maybe even shared a laugh or two with your friends over some of the pictures. What the heck, are we back in grade school again where the cool kids poke fun at the not so cool kids and everyone laughs? Is this what we want to teach our children?

Quite honestly, I find this site highly offensive and cannot begin to imagine the humiliation of someone finding their picture posted there knowing millions of people are laughing at them.

Shame on us . . .

As for the advertisers that help make it possible for sites like this to stay in business, they can be assured I will never even consider doing business with them.

It seems that my personal feelings on this particular site has made more than a few people a bit upset with me and definitely isn't earning me any new friends. FWIW it is simply my personal opinion. I am certainly not pointing fingers at anyone. Maybe my heart is too tender, but I have just never found it funny to laugh at the expensive of others.

Ohh I just saw the site!

I sometimes get a few email of this site but I have no time to look into it. I guess most people that are affected here are the fat guys and girls.

People always treat fat dude a bit rude most of the time..

I feel sorry for them...
