Thanks for this post. I am especially amused by the anti-tobacco diatribes of the elites. Prager rightly points out that alcohol is responsible for more abuse and violence than smoking, which is a personal choice. I've been sober 15 years but I smoke. One made my life unmanageable, the other doesn't. When I went to Madrid a couple of holidays ago, the city was trying to pass a bill that would get prostitutes inside and get smokers outside. Kind of kills the mystique of the after-sex cigarette! The nanny state is creeping up all over the world, and people care more about others lighting up than Muslims flying planes into our buildings and murdering filmmakers on the streets... go figure!
