LOL -- Now here's a great reason for the advocacy of smokers...
...So if NOT for cigarettes, some smokers might merely be doped-up zoned-out druggies instead -- admittedly far less a nuisance in restaurants than having a Bette Davis-type billowing clouds of noxious plumes onto my meal from the next table.
Oh, but I guess that's THE version of "liberty" for some posters here.

How many tons of noxious fumes are dumped into the air we all have to breathe every time one of your "fighters" takes off? Do you have any idea? According to the Department of Transportation, a 747 takeoff dumps the pollution equivalent of about 3 million cigarettes into the atmosphere. Don't you care that you're poisoning "the children" as well as everyone else on earth who has to breathe? After all, you can CHOOSE to fly a plane, we HAVE to breathe.

My "version of liberty," which happens to be the ONLY correct one, is to make your own choices. If you don't want to be around smokers when you're eating, don't go to restaurants that welcome them. If you own a restaurant and don't want to cater to smokers, put a sign outside stating your own policy; if you don't want to work where smokers congregate, don't apply for a job there. What could be simpler or more American than free choice and the free market?
