July 13, 200818 yr Sounds like some really ultra prissies in your area, Ram. You have no idea, power trip. I didn't let it go unchallenged. Lets just say the conversation ended with, "Go ahead, call the police".
July 13, 200818 yr I have no problem with banning smoking in restaurants. If you want to smoke, go outside and stop your whining. Bars are a different story. If I go to a bar, I expect drinking and smoking. Banning smoking in a bar is stupid. Or if you don't like the Smoke in a Restaurant go to another one where the owner prohibits smoking and stop your whinning...:thumb:

July 13, 200818 yr Author I'll go with that. :thumb:Again, why shouldn't there be some restaurants where smokers can go and enjoy a cigarette or cigar? Why do the non-smokers have to have it all their way? Don't you think it's just a greedy attitude, not you, but for the non-smoking side to think they should have it their way only?

July 13, 200818 yr Author I think when it comes down to flipping a coin between good health and bad health...lean toward the good.I understand and respect your opinion, but I think it's only fair to allow some restaurants for smokers, the non-smokers don't need to hoard them all.
July 13, 200818 yr I have a major problem with it, as I've said repeatedly in this thread it should be up to the individual owner. Not all restaurants are owned by individuals first of all. Secondly, it isn't a big deal to me either way. I don't care if they pass a ban or not, but I'll enjoy the smoke free restaurants in places they do.
July 13, 200818 yr I never complained. But I'll be more than happy when the ban takes effect everywhere. Which will not be very long...This is just the start of our Government taking over our personal choices...:thumb::creepy:
July 13, 200818 yr I understand and respect your opinion, but I think it's only fair to allow some restaurants for smokers, the non-smokers don't need to hoard them all. Haven't smokers been hoarding them all up until recently? I mean sure they had "smoking sections" but that obviously wasn't doing any good. Smokers can go outside to smoke. Non-smokers, if smoking is allowed, are forced to sit in a room filled with smoke that they don't want to be around.
July 13, 200818 yr Which will not be very long...This is just the start of our Government taking over our personal choices...:thumb::creepy: Wow. People always find something to complain about. Thousands of people die each year from smoking related deaths. If the government did nothing about it there would still be people complaining. Probably some of the same people who claim the government is trying to run their lives.
July 13, 200818 yr Im sure our founding fathers would love this ban...:sleep: I'm not sure our founding fathers knew every answer to every question.
