You did not understand my comment. It was not about taking away our freedom to smoke (or any other freedom for that matter).

My comment was that politicians are G D hypocrites for making smoking impossible/difficult yet loving the taxes smoking creates.

If they really had convictions, they'd outlaw smokes (or what ever). But they play this game of appearing concerned for our health while yet allowing smoking to keep the taxes it generates.

As for your thousands died at Normandy comment, you could not be farther from the truth of who I am in that holier than thou statement. Who died and made you the arbiter of liberty and freedom?

You know the people in glass houses cliché? If not, you'd better Google it. Get to know me before you come out with public bull sh*t comments like that.
