I wouldn't mind smoking if you just didn't exhale.

You probably shouldn't go where smoking is permitted if you dislike it that intensely.
Is dislike enough to permit the government, any government, to deny personal property owners the right to allow the consumption of a legal product, by adults, on their property?

My argument has never been weak. And my suggestion that you be deported was an illustration that your contention that government should take actions if "society is better off" was wrongheaded. The illustration sailed over your head.

The suggestion that you send Hillary money was a legitimate suggestion since you introduced the fact that you send Ron Paul money. He disagrees with your position and she supports your postion. Why send money to help someone who opposes you? It was good advice. Not a personal attack. A personal attack is when you call someone stupid. That's what you did.

No need to, the first shot hit the bullseye.

You would not be the judge of that.

Your statements on the other hand advocate fascism. Try to make the connection on that.

Not hardly, but you knew that. I dislike smoking, not that it matters to this subject.

It's fascist to advocate government control of private property. That's one of the definitions of fascism.

I think you just tied a cement block to your own argument.

Your comments make as much sense now as they did in the beginning. Which is to say, none at all.

Before you develop another personal attack, consider my politics: I make two political contributions each year; Congressman Ron Paul and the NRA

I personally funded Ron Paul's last campaign, the NRA calls me nightly for advice and my Adult Onset Diabetes has been written up in medical journals.

Those facts aside, why do you think your narcissism entitles you to expect the rest of the world to cave to your neuroses?

Freedom is messy, but you apparently envision a world in which we'd all be required to alphabetize and color code our spice cabinet.
