Isn't this ridiculous? The anti-smokers have tunnel vision. They don't even know there is a war on.
All they can think about is banning smoking. I think they are really over the top. Nothing like taking away the rights of the American people when we are fighting a big war over seas.
Our military is fighting for our rights, and these idiots are still working to take them away. Makes you wonder just what side they really are on, right?
Hi SheLion, thanks for the ping.
First, the danger of second hand smoke is a lie. Both my parents smoked all my life and I never suffered any ill effects from it. I've smoked for over 20 years and can still outrun most of my peers. So the second hand smoke argument does not hold water. I realize that most anti-smokes cannot accept this FACT because it so severely curtails their argument and agenda.
To be fair, throwing cigarette butts on the ground is littering and there is no excuse for that. There are already laws addressing the act of littering so another law (smoking ban) will not make any difference. I NEVER throw my cigarette butts on the ground OR out the window. Remember, in the summer time there are folks on motorcycles including a friend of mine who was hit in the face by a lit butt that some careless driver threw out his window while driving down highway.
Smoking bans are nothing more than other people trying to force their will and views on me. Won't happen.
I am a courteous smoker. I don't throw my butts down (littering), and do not smoke where it is prohibited. I have been willing to meet the anti-smokers halfway. If the anti-smokers do not show the same courtesy, I will stop trying to meet them half way.
