You forgot about guns, booze, Big Macs and SUV's.

The only guilt trip put upon us is for eating Big Macs and driving SUV's.  So far, there has not been a ban against people using them as cigarettes have.

Glad to help! The Antis are trying to institute bans everywhere in Illinois, one municipality at a time.... Illinois Smokers Rights

I'm glad somebody agrees.

A gf once recorded my conversation with her (in the car, not on a phone) while I was driving my car. Most of my half of the talk consisted of "uh." I was concentrated on the road and not the chit-chat. Not a bad thing in NYC.

Chicago and Cook County is a one party Soviet State, just like the old evil empire. To make matters worse, the GOP here is non existant or supine.

It's not just the smokers that it will come from.
Eventually someone/something will push too far and it will come from a much greater proportion of the population than just smokers.


I'm 51.
I hope the masses will rise up.
They're getting kinda lazy.
