If you smoke in my air, can I spit in your drink?
I'm not an anti-smoking nazi, but I do think that reasonable restrictions are in order. The smell gets into your clothes, your hair, and everything else, even if you're not smoking.
Hey, keep on smoking. If you get a disease from it, take responsibility for it and don't sue the company.
Oh, and for us motorcyclists, don't through the cig out the window while we're going by. Not only is it incredibly annoying and dangerous for us, it's also incredibly unsafe for your health if you piss off a 1%er (Hells Angel, etc.)
As a smoker, I don't have problems with reasonable restrictions........but I have a major problem with government mandates banning it from private property. If you have a problem with the smell on your clothes or in your hair, don't go where it is permitted, but don't demand the government ban it everywhere.
As to those tossing cigarettes out the window of a car - they need a lesson in DO NOT LITTER.......but so do the idiots who toss fast food wrappers and other things out the window.
And for you motorcycle riders, do me a favor, stay within the lines so that those of us in cars can see you. Nothing scares me more on the road than some yahoo on a bike riding the line in my blind spot, and then shooting past me in a no passing zone. (it happened to me today and so is fresh in my mind)
I respect non-smokers when i smoke. I isolate myself. I don't even smoke in my house. And I wouldn't sue the ciggerette company. By the way...I said I'm workin on quitting! So no, don't spit in my drink. But personally, if I ever smoke anywhere close to you and it bothers you, then go ahead and spit in my face.
