Yep, you can give me all the reasons in the world, but like I said, it is smokers who have abandoned the restaurants and bars and caused them to go under. So stop blaming us. We are still going.

Well, go! Great!  We are blaming the business owners for not being prepared to stand up and fight this issue because they didn't believe it was going to happen to them.  But it did.

Now the rest of the United States can read and learn from what the bans have done in 7 states and they can now fight and have all the information at hand to them.

But the anti's lied when they said the non-smokers would come out in droves to make up for the 25-30% of the smokers that aren't coming anymore.  Well, they lied.  Too many accounts around the US to prove otherwise.

The anti's are highly paid professionals.  They have the money so far to ban and control.  We do not.  We work for no one but each other and our own personal freedoms of choice.

I received an email the other day.  Now this smoker is down right irate!

I spent some time on the Yahoo Forum Boards arguing with some Smoke Nazi's.

 

I told them we are organizing and coming to get them. We are going to confiscate their Botox, SUV, Cellphone, Fast Food, and anything else they are hiding.

 

Give yourself up now and we will show mercy...not! You are a danger to society and freedom, and we are coming for you. We want revenge and nothing is sacred.

If you blame the business owners and not yourselves, for letting themselves go broke then stop blaming us. Stop trying to make us feel guilty for the poor bar owner. We didn't do it.

I usually stay out of these arguments because I too have been brainwashed to feel like a leper because I smoke.

The bottom line is this.....smoking is legal and it is not impossible to make a smoke free and smoker friendly establishment. The bans have made almost everything non smoking rather than trying to accomadate both sides. I resent others taking my personal decisions away.
