We should probably ban the sun, it's causes skin cancer. |

Me either... strange stuff is generated these days from the right wing about "individual" rights and freedoms. Plenty of left wingers would be happy to tell you to put your anti-smoking mania where the sun don't shine. And I didn't see anybody here defending tobacco use, excepting individual preference. You might be taken more seriously if your mania extended to the overweight, and those burning carcinogenic wood in fireplaces or driving polluting cars, or flying in polluting airplanes. Those are more serious health issues than second-hand cigarette smoke. Perhaps you 2 can't go there. It does take common sense. BTW. "apoligia" is the correct word. That was really clumsy for an averred literate. You 2 knee-jerkers should at least attempt to correct each other. I think the government should outlaw the sun. It causes skin cancer. |

"the bartenders are going to start enforcing a ban on smokers ranging all over the place" What do you think "place" means??? OK I apologize, "all over the place" confused me. If you mean all over the inside of the bar, yes the bartender or the manager if they have one will enforce the smoking regulations or any other rules in that bar. If it is a tough place they also have bouncers.. I still don't get your question Time to change the subject http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0911/63466.html |

I can just imagine bartenders chasing after smokers... around and around the table. In the mean time, everyone else gets to breathe the smoke.

Oh, I'm a Nazi. Thanks for clarifying! So, it's not necessarily illegal, but you don't like ANY restrictions on YOUR rights, and to hell with anyone else. I support everyone's rights. So, define MY rights to not be around a carcinogenic cloud. How do I avoid one in a restaurant. I'm seated. Some guy waltz' in from the smoking section, and puffs away. I'm supposed to do what? Wait for the bouncer? Leave myself? I am just not convinced you have a right to go in a place clearly marked "smoking allowed" and complain about the smoke. What is so compelling in there that you have to go in there except for your desire to be offended and sue someone over it? If it's a public place and the law says it isn't a smoking allowed place, I have just as much right as everyone else. I just don't get what your problem is. The law is pretty clear. It reminds me of the people who buy a house next to the airport because it is cheap and then complain about the planes. Which people? Are you changing the subject? Hooray for him. You are boring us to tears. |

The idea that anyone on the planet has not seen the warning on the side of a cigarette pack is ludicrous. Which has nothing to do with fantasy that lawsuits should be known about in advance. How many suits have there been since the settlement? What difference does that make? Tell me about how many lawsuits are known about in advance. I notice you keep avoiding telling me. I suppose you consider 12 year olds cognizant of the dangers of cigar smoke also. Typical "libertarian" nonsense. 12 year olds are prohibited by law from smoking. As I said, the tobacco companies don't seem to care. Also, does this mean you believe in certain gov't intrusion? I'm shocked! You're shocked at Greg doing a flippy floppy? Why? He has to in order to stay opposed to you. It is not necessary Plume will always disagree with anything I say. That is why it is fun playing withher.
