The anti-tobacco campaign of the Nazis: Posted on 10/21/1999
One topic that has only recently begun to attract attention is the Nazi anti-tobacco movement.
Germany had the world's strongest anti smoking movement in the 1930s and early 1940s,supported by Nazi medical and military leaders worried that tobacco might prove a hazard to the race.

Do they know who they emulate?

If that's your best argument, you had best sit this one out. Godwin's law has been satisfied in reply number......that's right, one!

I personally find smoking utterly repulsive - especially since I'm highly allergic to cigarette smoke. I frequent bowling alleys on their smoke-free nights and plenty of smoke-free bars. Bars that do allow smoking will only see me late on Tuesday night, for example - basically when nobody's around. Businesses have found that banning smoking is a good thing for business, not a bad thing, and all the smokers' whining isn't going to change that.

I don't really care what smokers do as long as it's not around me. I don't seek out smoke-filled places - I make most every attempt to avoid it. I don't care what people do in their own homes, but I would be perfectly fine with a public smoking ban.
