It is very disappointing that the German police treat being overweight as something shameful. No, it is not shameful, and it is not body shaming. I am also fat, and I am not ashamed of it. I take it as a compliment. It shows that I enjoy good food, have a healthy appetite, and derive great pleasure from fine cuisine. It also shows that I am not addicted to drugs, nor do I have cancer or AIDS. However, speaking the truth is seen as a crime only to those who want to drag Germany back to its 1938 mindset.
