Hey I am not telling you how to run your business. All I am saying like I mentioned earlier is smoking in public places .........

You sir, are a liar................you support government mandated smoking bans in private businesses - that is telling me how to run my business.

I am not saying how to run your store. That is your private life and I have no right to intrude into your private life.

Horse manure - you are supporting government mandates to tell me how to run my business because of your selfishness. Thankfully, I do not run a tavern or restaurant - I've watched far too many people I know and are friends either go out of business or face huge fines because of people like you who have no concept of private property rights.

A little bit of manual labor would probably serve you well - if nothing else it would at least knock the chip off your shoulder and teach you a bit of humility.

Nice try Saheba!!!

Re-read again. probably this time your brain might process it correctly -

All I am saying like I mentioned earlier is smoking in public places .........

how in the world you read the above sentence? Is a restaurant a public place? Absolutely not. Then my statement does not apply to a restaurant or a home or a tavern or a hotel. Lacking braincells can definitely cause someone to say "you support government mandated smoking bans in private businesses - that is telling me how to run my business." while I am talking about smoking in public places

No offense intended toward any white-collar folks here-I worked on BOTH sides of the fence throughout the years before retiring-but-It's ALWAYS white-collar whining yuppies who are anti-smoker Taliban. Never suffered or went without, never will. Always had it easy-had it their way-and demand instant gratification on any subject. I've never once in my entire life met or heard of, any blue-collar people who were for total , sweeping bans. Not even the ones who hated the smell of tobacco. My theory is, the harder you have to work for what you have, the more you learn to respect other folks' hard work. Therefore, you are more likely to become infuriated when you see government taking anyone's livelyhood away.
