Reply #112: So you're saying if someone has a handicap - fuck em [View All]

Yeah, that's right out of the republican handbook

Here's the facts - unless you happened to be about 60+ years old, you (or anyone who smokes) were warned about the dangers of smoking. Yet people smoked anyways.

Smoking is a personal choice which means in your own private place - light em' up.

But I find it pretty fucking rude of anyone suggesting that a person needs to find another job especially with how difficult the job market is out there. I needed a job and put up with it for 3 years because back then I had no idea that something so profound as indoor smoking bans could happen here on the east coast. I figured Californians were a bunch of health nuts and it could never pass here.

Reality is, in about 5-10 years this will be nationwide and about time. Polluting your own lungs with Carbon Monoxide and other addictive carcinogenic materials is a personal choice. I realize I'm kinda stuck with other sorts of pollutions and I work with groups within my state to help clean up those pollutions (BTW - Wilmington, like many states & urban areas, is switching their buses to alternative, non-pollutive forms of energy).

I'm just tired of smokers complaining about 'their rights' when it was a choice they made. Keep it to yourself - I'm not interested in it
