This is BS.

There was another poll earlier in the week that showed there was overwhelming support for it.

They have enough signatures, it will be on November's ballot and my wife and I will vote for it!

You are going to vote for a state wide ban?  Why would you do that?  Why do you want to hurt the private business owners?  I can't understand some of you.

You say you are Conservative and yet you believe in more government intervention?  What is wrong with you?

You should be ashamed of yourself.  It's people like you that throw our state economy into tail spins and force poor people to close their businesses just because you don't like something.

For shame on you!

"smokefreeohio" is not exactly an objective source for a poll.

Sorry, I'm more inclined to believe a poll from business which this BS is imposed upon than an outfit that gets money ONLY if they get bans passed.

They polled 600 folks, don't say if they were likely voters or even registered voters... Or even if they were of voting age.

Smokers just don't want to accept that society has shifted.. for a very long time smoking was the social norm and those who did not smoke had to endure the fallout from those who did... now society has shifted and smoking is no longer the norm and they will have to accept and edure that.

I've lived in places that have banned smoking and places that don't... and I can tell you first hand, bars and restraunts are no less busy in areas that have the ban vs those that don't.

(Shaking my head) I wonder when was the last time that you were forced to enter a building with smokers. Be careful what you ask for.

There is never ending danger when voting in league with the Socialist Nannies. Just wait until they decide what else will be best for you even though you may disagree. But you have already fed the monster until it is big, beyond your ability to fight it.

Again, be careful what you ask for. Next, the nannies will decide you drive an unacceptable car. Or you are not raising your children with acceptable values.
