If you don't like the forum topics She Lion submits, why do you read them? She is doing an excellent job of sharing the prosmoking viewpoint. Maybe you better not read topics with which you don't agree....it might trigger your asthma. Have you ever considered that you may not smell that good to smokers? Also, if you rent to the kind of tenants that allow 1/8' inch of any kind of residue to build up on their windows, then you have a serious problem with the caliber of your tenants and the quality of your rental units. Anyone who takes pride in their residence would not allow that kind of filth to exist.

Since you are the one who referred to the smoker as "this kind of filth," on that I'll have to agree. As for the pizza place, had I known ahead of time how bad it was going to be, needless to say, I would have avoided that place.

I am always amazed at what possible good you smoker-rights people think you are doing. Are you making the world a better place? I think not. There is nothing to gain by smoking, nor is it a good habit or something to be emulated, desired, or coveted. It is what it is - a filthy addiction. While many people became addicted innocently when it was touted as a health benefit (e.g. my father-in-law was given free cigs during WWII and was told they were good for him), so many more begin smoking for reasons of pride, vanity or even rebellion (teens wanting to look older, be cool or do what they know is wrong). It is a sin and I cannot endorse nor condone such a thing. I can only tolerate it when it is forced upon me and I have no choice. My apologies if the truth is offensive to you.
