Kill a fat person? It's all their fault.

Imagine this. A driver on a rural road is reckless, loses control of the car, and gets into an accident. A person in the car has hemophilia and starts to bleed out. The ambluance and helicopter rush to the scene but are unable to save the person with hemophillia because they don't have specialized equipment to save them. 

Whose fault is it? The ambluence crew? The person with hemophillia? or the person driving recklessly?

Most sane people would say it was the person driving recklessly.

Not so much a judge and Defense lawyer in Scotland who apparently fined and banned from driving for three years a doctor whose reckless driving killed a 400 lb woman. Apparently the slap on the wrist was for two reasons, one he was a surgeon and therefore served the community and second the woman died because she was fat.  "If the person had been of average fitness they might have survived the injuries caused by the collision." The Judge said.

Average fitness? What does that mean? Did the judge even look at the victim's history or just assume that because she was fat she most not be doing any exercise at all. Perhaps she would have died of a heart attack the very next day!  I mean if the doctor had a terminal cancer patient in the car and his reckless driving killed him, that would be okay right? And what if she was a thin out of shape woman? I don't know the laws in Scotland but in the states if you kill someone through negligence it's called Negligent Homicide. Are future cases going to be judged on the weight of a victim?

This show that even worldwide fat people are treated as second class citizens, moral degenerates, and not worthy of even proper restoration for their death. If you substituted fat for Black, gay, Jewish, disabled, etc, there would be a worldwide outrage. Instead it doesn't matter because she was just a fat woman.
