This is a good example of government out of control.
Nanny State Ping..........
Merry Christmas all.
One Saturday this past summer, I was in the heart of downtown Cleveland in Tower City. I was on an OUTSIDE balcony with three young Army men in uniform who were in town for a West Point game with a local team. We were enjoying the beautiful weather, a chat, and a smoke. Someone called a Cleveland police officer on us. This is what happens when you pass bad law. Ohio could have had something sensible that the vast majority of Ohioans would have been happy with. Instead, we got this junk. And as a result, there are a lot of unhappy people in the state of Ohio. This is what angers people against government and each other. Where has common sense gone?
Merry Christmas to my good Freeper Friends! God bless.
You’ll see the posts against the VFWs and our VETS on the site I posted above.
Sad that lodge members are the ones calling in the complaints.
That is tragic.
My County Health Director was angry about this law and called it, “ridiculous” during a conversation I had with him.
Even Adolph Hitler didn't conceive of such tyranny.
Since when is a Private club, a public place?
Exactly!
Thank you for that link. I’d never seen it before.
Merry Christmas and God Bless to you and all as well!
...Of the top 10 targets of smoking complaints in the state, eight are private clubs.
Words no longer have meaning.
Land of the FREE? Not any more. With the passing of every law, we lost yet more freedoms. HOW many stinking laws are out there now. The imperial federal government, state legislatures, city and town, counties, all these pass more and more and more and more and more laws every day, every week. AND MORE FREEDOM is taken from us. Everything now has a law. What you eat, drink, smoke, drive, walk, breath, look, see, touch, admire, up chuck over. Everything is governed by a law AND TAXED. The government now controls more of our lives than we do. We don't have freedom any more. They claim we have freedom of speech. But, do we really? They can easily just call anything you say or do, a hate crime. Pretty all covering law those HATE laws. We have few and very limited freedoms now. And, they now want to tax people having babies for the carbon foot print. So, now every breath you take is going to be taxed. What freedom? America is not free. It has been taken away by the socialist in congress and other state and local governments.
It’s pathetic that hubby and I have to go to Vegas where he can have a cigar with his adult beverage. Hubby only smokes about 6 cigars per year, but just to be able to do that is a treat.
I read one of those - I feel ill.
