Smoking ban passes
You people that are cheering for the passing of the smoking ban actually amaze me!! I wonder how many of you own a small business of your own, very few if any I am sure. I just can't believe that in "The land of the free" (so we thought) that you could cheer for something like this. This ban is like telling someone what they can and cannot do in their own home. I know you don't see it this way but think of it like this; These people pay property tax on a property they bought with their hard earned money and now you are telling them how they have to live and act in and on their own property! I am having a hard time grasping that thought. Smoking cigarettes, cigars, and other tobacco products is completely legal last time I checked so if you don't want to breathe these things THEN STAY HOME OR GO SOMEWHERE THAT OFFERS WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR. Don't force this issue on everyone else. I am not a smoker but I do believe in the right to make your own choices as long as it remains within the realm of the law which obviously smoking does.
