  3. WOW!!! You people are sure some disgusting human beings!!! A man is missing and a family is hurting!!! Get it together and go find your morals

  4. Yes I think the newspaper should retract this article so that when we find this guy he doesn’t have to come home to all this. Please delete and rewrite. He is a middle aged man with a diagnosis of bipolar disorder that matches the description of 5’3 400 lbs not a missing 400 pound man. People first language! If you quietly just edit out the headline I think we can move forward from there.

    • Why? So a bi polar group can complain like you did? Bi polar man missing. Just leave it be.

  6. Dear AV Times Staff,

    Just, wow. Are you channeling your inner insecure high school bully personality flaws? Nothing but the best, objective and fact filled, reporting to appeal to your desired customer base.

  8. All of you and your hilarious comments …hmm yet something tells me most of you are out of shape and/or don’t exercise. Cmon show off those six packs !

  9. “Sane” needs to eliminate fast food, junk food, and soft drinks. He also needs to invest in a Peloton bike.

  11. The headline gives the vibe that he escaped from the circus or something

    • Nope. All the elephants are where they’re supposed to be.

      However, much of their food is missing.
