Nope...how about smokers stay the fuck out of our way?
I love non-smoking buildings where smokers all hang outside the front door and you have to get through the cancer gauntlet in order to get in.
I also love enjoying a fabulous dinner, only for a waft of smoke to hit my nostrils.
I also love eating in a cafe and watching smokers put their cigs out in their food. Nothing more appetizing than that.
I grew up in a time where smokers ruled the world, and my mom was one of the worst offenders.
Back in the day if you didn't smoke, you were treated like a negro in the 60's..back to the bus.
If you went to a restaurant you got the worst seating.
People smoked at just about every event you attended.
Going grocery shopping? Smokers there, these people actually put their cigarettes out on the floors of stores.
Most people would light up before they would even ask you if it was okay, could be your home, your car, they didn't care, they looked cool like the movie stars on the big screen.
I'm glad it's finally swinging the other direction. I personally am a libertarian, but have some liberal social leanings. I think people should be free to destroy themselves if they wish to, with whatever it is they wish to, as long as they are legal adults...however...once those habits begin to infringe upon the rights of others...*and yes I do have a right to clean air* then that's where the line stops.
Like the old saying goes, my freedoms being at my knuckle, but end before your nose.
