These gangs should come here. We have plenty of liberal fatties on welfare all for the taking… They would make a fortune…

Human trafficking for any reason should be stopped but that is easier said than done. This will make every woman think about their cosmetic lotions before they make their next purchase.

There have also been a few stories about human organ trafficking. This has not stopped even though the police have known about it for so many years. So will this stop. Most likely not. You have to wonder if the gangs use the cream themselves or cannibalize the bodies???

BREAKING NEWS: Philly gang says they will help get the “fat” out of fattest U.S. city.

I am surprised to hear they have not made their way here to the Mid-West!! Where flea markets most closely resemble hogs at a trough.

……… and killing for cosmetics no less!!

I guess they still must believe that paint does wonders for an old barn?

OUR FOUNDER was such a giving person. Too bad he passed on, before he could donate his fat to those in need. http://www.FATBOY.cc

How much for a FATHEAD?

Gordon   November 20th, 2009 - 11:50 am

Wait a minute! Does that mean plastic surgeons that do liposuction on fat libs are charging them for the procedure AND THEN selling the fat?
This can pay for Obamacare!
Jars of fat can be worth more than gold per pound!

Watchman   November 20th, 2009 - 11:57 am

Remind me to stay away from Peru. I would make these guys millionaires.

thedude   November 20th, 2009 - 12:01 pm

“It was beautiful. We were selling rich women their own fat asses back to them.”

Did anyone notice this story coincides with the blu-ray release of Fight Club?

jigaratta   November 20th, 2009 - 12:06 pm

Does that mean they will pay for my liposuction and still save money? Where? When?

BANKING QUEEN   November 20th, 2009 - 12:09 pm

Sometimes I like to chew the fat with these guys – http://www.crewclub.net

The gang has been forced to do this because of GLOBAL WARMING – http://www.M4GW.com

Planned Parenthood is a broker for the sale of embryos for stem cells. Has been for years.

My local PP office has a lab on property to process, package & ship embryos worldwide.

They don’t care about pregger women… just the $$

When I SERVED IN VIETNAM, I would often encounter these type of gangs and would kill them all by myself. http://www.LIVESHOT.cc

I’m totally offending by this gruesome story. It is sick and disgusting. Thanks anyhoo for bringing this too our attention. Just when you think you have heard it all. Then, you go and report this story and shock us again. :(

Al Gore is “behind” this !!!!

(sorry for that )

FON FOP Farse Frent   November 20th, 2009 - 2:41 pm

They need to start one of these gangs in Chicago. It would reduce the cost of running the city by 95%. New Orleans would make a good place too. If you watched the news and saw some of those fat bodies being rescued from the government housing you would think they had been on welfare since the 60’s, never worked and ate like a pig.

JackL   November 20th, 2009 - 3:15 pm

Who cares. The rich elite euro-trash liberals couldn’t care less. They probably relish in the fact
that they are nurishing their skin with body fluids of minority peasents.

Lisa B.   November 20th, 2009 - 3:36 pm

Californicate would be another good place for these peruvian gangs to strike out and make their fortunes. I hear there are a lot of fatties at Berkeley, a lot of stupid libs also. K*ll two birds with one stone.

Gladeye   November 20th, 2009 - 6:06 pm

This makes me want to say something positive or negative about an American politician. Aren’t they something?!

Todd Wood   November 20th, 2009 - 6:38 pm

That is sad and sickening, and I can’t believe people’s first reaction is to make jokes about it. All of the people who were murdered and processed like they were nothing, and you post jokes. I am glad I don’t get it. I don’t want to find humor in crap like this.

Chisco   November 20th, 2009 - 7:02 pm

I wonder if any of the women who learn that this was the source of one of the “ingredients” in their cosmetics will think “it was worth it”…..

This is TRULY DISGUSTING; but then, I am seeing more and more PLAIN OLD OUTRIGHT EVIL nowadays……

The sentences for these types of crimes must be SWIFT AND LETHAL!

Tom   November 20th, 2009 - 7:11 pm

finally Michael Moore is not a worthless human being

TD   November 20th, 2009 - 7:29 pm

Rosie O and Oprah are worth more than we ever thought.

kmne68   November 21st, 2009 - 3:11 am

Well, isn’t this ok really just so long as they don’t test the cosmetics on lab rats?

Turtle Dove   November 21st, 2009 - 7:46 am

I am dismayed at the lack of concern and disgust being displayed by bloggers here. You folks are making jokes about subject matter that is barely fit to print. Are you people so desensitized by Hannibal Lector flms, YouTube and a society where anything-goes, that something as incredibly sicko as this doesn’t even register on your OMG meter?!? This worries me.

Lono   November 21st, 2009 - 8:40 am

One day, Humans which exhibit low empathy for others will be the ones hunted down and processed in the factories like common comodities.

Most “traditonal” politicians will not survive this change in paradigmn.

I hope these gangs wherever they hide throughout this planet are routed and destroyed terribly in this life and burn for eternity in the next.

May God prounouce judgement on their souls!

Cosmo   November 21st, 2009 - 9:01 am

I hope the dems dont get any ideas to use this to pay for Obamacare.

Kevin O.   November 21st, 2009 - 9:33 am

Turtle Dove: No, we are desensitized by stupid liberal trolls who don’t think twice about abortion, and I’m sure wouldn’t think twice about this process. They are stupid enough to use the end product and wouldn’t lose sleep either, as long as they get their product.

DennisinOhio   November 21st, 2009 - 9:45 am

Exactly what is the thing that makes human fat better than animal fat, which is readily available as a byproduct, by the ton, at any rendering plant? And this has been going on for years and happens not just in Peru? At the very least, we might display those companies that use these items as a part of their product. Exactly how is this stuff shipped to Europe – in a suitcase? I will cross Peru off my list of places to visit – I’m worth more than I thought it appears to potential hosts there! However, off to Brazil in a few weeks – I assume they don’t traffic in body fat there (yet?).

Gandhi's Fist   November 21st, 2009 - 11:40 am

Horrific. Beyond comprehension. On par with the gravest atrocities ever committed. Peru must go after this in the strongest fashion possible or be associated with taint of this nauseating outrage forever.

Jimballs   November 21st, 2009 - 4:42 pm

Wish I had known I was so valuble. I could stop working and eat peanut buddah jelly samitches all day.

Mississippi might have just found their way out of the recession.

Mike   November 21st, 2009 - 5:41 pm

I just wanna say that its unfortunate that Johnny is fat and dumb…do we all remember from grade school science class that weight(pounds) and volume(gallons) are two different forms of measure and cannot be interchanged?

I’m educating our nation of fools one at a time…

mellsbad   November 21st, 2009 - 7:15 pm

Fat folks create more gas & use more resources. Why not get rid of them in a way that reuses/recycles their stored energy. Go Green:)

ChuckyCheese1   November 21st, 2009 - 10:09 pm

Impeach Obama!

Freemon SandleWould   November 22nd, 2009 - 12:36 am

Obama’s health plan for you baby boomers.

Reggie   November 22nd, 2009 - 5:19 am

So.. how is this worse than abortions?

Rick James   November 22nd, 2009 - 9:02 am

Hey … don’t we have “Fat Farms” here in the US?

Now I know how they make the money! Anyone want to help me sponsor a Fat Farm?

We could hook those cows up for some awesome food (lots of bacon) get them all ‘buttered’ up then sell them off … isn’t that a model from the cattle industry?

Me   November 22nd, 2009 - 2:25 pm

So why not expose the firms that are purchasing? That would dry up things immediately. Can you imagine, Revlon or one of the big houses gets tied to this?? It’d be the end of them, and the end of this. Cut off the demand, it’ll cut off supply. Please… not rocket science here…

shelton   November 22nd, 2009 - 3:41 pm

Abu Ghraib. And, now this.

angel of truth   November 22nd, 2009 - 4:11 pm

Obama’s health care plan – finally we see the devil in the details.
This must be what he meant by more government transparency, except
for the devil in the details that buried his birth certificate.

dina little   November 22nd, 2009 - 5:32 pm

You people make me sick and ashamed. Michelle Obama may be proud for the first time of her country, but for the first time, I am truly ashamed of my country, that has such people in it: People who have so seared their conscience they banally joke about what can hav3e been nothing less then a hellish nightmare for the victims. Joking like this is sickening and makes you worse then the killers. You are why America is sliding headlong into a culture of death that will make the Nazi’s death machine look like amateurs. At least, the Peruvians know it isn’t a game. 50 million dead from abortion, now we are starting to go after the old and infirm.

Chiki   November 22nd, 2009 - 6:56 pm

THIS IS BULLSH*T AND IF IT’S NOT, THEN IT IS CULLING THE HUMAN HERD. DO THEY SHOOT THEM FROM PLANES LIKE THEY DO ELEPHANTS? I AM IN THE MOMENT, LIKE CAULDRON, SHARPEN THE CLEAVER, AND LET THE RENDERING BEGIN.
TAX PEOPLE BY THEIR WEIGHT AND OFFER TO TAKE PAYMENT ONLY IN LIPIDS, EXTRUDE THE FAT FROM THEM THROUGH PRESSINGS. THIS GIVES VAT TAX A NEW MEANING.

CJ Bowman   November 23rd, 2009 - 10:50 pm

Unbelievable story – Those paying desperately poor for human body fat need to pay the piper.
