Fat Billy

I'd like to introduce you to fat Billy. Fat Billy can be seen on the right in the attached clip:

all of this is very amusing you might think. However, there is something altogether more sinister going on. As you might expect, fat Billy is rubbish at sport. That is not anything to be ashamed of at all, I'm rubbish at sport myself.

However, the political correctness Nazis have latched on to fat Billy. The next time you go to your kids' school sports day you will see the influence that fat Billy has had. Because Billy can't run more than 10 feet without his lungs exploding, there are no longer any running races because we have to value Billy's diversity and inability to do anything physical. There is nothing involving jumping because Billy cannot get off the ground unaided.

Instead your children will find themselves throwing a beanbag at a 6 foot wide target on the ground aiming for the middle. Because the middle is only 3 feet away, everyone can hit the middle, including Billy and the specky kid with grommets in his ears. Once they have done that they will get to throw the polystyrene javelin which is so light and wet that it actually goes further if thrown in a weak and wet fashion.

It should be pointed out that none of this is fat billy's fault. If he wants to survive on a diet of donuts and blue pop that's up to him. The people who should be blamed are those obsessed with political correctness. Billy can't do sport, that doesn't mean we should make it so easy that everyone should do it does it?
