If you want to WALK to your neighborhood bar and assfricks like you are there chain smoking..then tell me to go DRIVE somewhere else where people are respectful of community air... I say, welcome to a better bar.



That's not your choice dipshit, it's the owners of the bars choice (well now it's the gov't choice, hooray!!). You know, the people that pay the fricking rent to provide a place for you to enjoy a beer. If you don't like assfricks smoking, then find another bar.

And I've never smoked a day in my life btw.

They have the same right to the air that you do.

Actually you don't. The bar owner can kick you out whenever he damn well pleases.

You and everyone's terrible driving habits affect me. Ban cars. Start walking.

CDC 443,00 dead from cigs

Traffic accidents

5.4 million accidents
2.2 million injured

Ban cars.

Smoking should be allowed everywhere. Movie theaters, restaurants, buses, hospitals. Everywhere. Just like in the sixties.

A fallacy appears.

There are tons of laws preventing what you're allowed to do with a car.

Amongst several other errors with your argument, you are saying that 10X the people are killed because of smoking than car accidents

You don't like smoking fine. I don't either. I don't smoke. But you might like things I don't. I don't want to take away your rights. I may not agree with the way you think the world should be but I damn well will defend you. Every day. All day.

Cars by themselves aren't killing people. A lit cig by itself can cause harm. Also, you have a choice not to go on the road if you don't want to. I don't have a choice to get away from your cig.
