"If I want to enjoy a walk in the park and sit on a park bench, then you better not come sit next to me and smoke a cig. What about my right to bop you right in the nose."

Well, bring it on down here to Fort Hood, tough guy. The parks here are filled with smoking soldiers and their families. There ought to be about just enough left of you to send home in a baggie.

"...but I'm in a city with a lot of blue collar workers..."

Awww, poor baby. Is you all upset because you have to be slumming with us uncivilized peons? Is your condo in Beverly Hills being renovated to have this situation forced on you or are have you just stepped down socially in researching your latest movie about the deplorable living conditions of the downtrodden peasants and how they can be taught enlightenment by such a superior being as yourself?

You are reading way more into this. I'm just stating the fact that statistically speaking this group of people tend to have more smokers - it's just a fact - no bias or unkind thoughts meant.

As for the soldiers smoking - I don't care if they are soldiers or not, they shouldn't be blowing their smoke in other people's faces. I have a lot of respect for our fighting men and women.

By the way, smartie pants, I'm a gal not a guy and my great, great (etc.) granddaddy fought in the this country's revolutionary war just so I can be here and tell you off. I'm a member of the DAR and I am a proud and patriotic American. I just think that smokers shouldn't be allowed to smoke near other people - I didn't say they can't smoke - just not around me or my kids or my grandkids (when they are born).

P.S. I love you too.
