why dont i have the freedom to choose if i want to inhale nasty 2nd hand smoke?
you do. Don't go to the bar.

The government has no right to ban smoking in a private business.

I'm just saying that you have freedom to go where you want. I can understand if you have an aversion to smoking places. Lots of people do. But lots of people don't. Forcing them to comply with your view is not exactly an excise in freedom.

Parlay's


Parlys business would likely increase if they went smoke free. It is the only bar in lakeview and there are plenty of people who stay away because of the smoke.

They don't have this problem since their customers aren't old enough to smoke.

I'm a smoker and I prefer non-smoking bars. I have no problem stepping outside to burn one. And I'd rather not have my clothes from head to toe smell like an ash tray.

I had the secks in that bar when I was in highschool.



Just sayin.


I won't be having the secks there again because I like to smoke cigarettes and do good rat stuff after the secks.

Agreed. Most people in Lakeview don't smoke anyway.

Actually they do, its a private business that services the public. They have no right to ban smoking in your home.

No they don't.

My life is 1 million times better now I dont have to be near some mouth breathing, nose whistling inconsiderate douche smoking inbetween dessert #3 and #4

Banning smoking in these places makes the experience so much better, ruins some of Europe when Im back in that culture.

Doesn't make it right.

It should be left up to the owner.
