I'm a smoker and I'm all for smoking bans as long as it's a public health issue. If it's because I stink, or you're offended by the smell, or you think I don't know any better then you can bite my shiny, metal ass.
I'm even okay with them jumping on business owners about this. After all, we expect the government to protect the health of the average worker, right? I mean, there is a reasonable expectation of safety in the workplace, isn't there?
I'm a smoker. I know the dangers that entails and I choose to do it anyway. I smoke in my home, in the parking lot outside and occasionally in the car. As long as I can continue to do such, I'm with the anti-smokers. I don't have a "right" to smoke, but I do have a reasonable expectation to be able to enjoy a perfectly legal something...whatever that something happens to be. If it'll make the anti-smokers happy and help curb the blistering hate from their eyes, then "Viva la revolution!"
