They’ll blame it on something else, like EEEEEVIL REPUBLICANS somehow, and the media suckers will be completely complicit in the plot. That’s how it always works.

For, at least, 7 or 8 years now.

SCHI(t)P is really going to be in trouble when all the smokers quit, or turn to the black market, because of ultra high prices.

The nanny-staters who pass these laws don’t care. And the majority of voters don’t care to hold them to account.

The Nazis have ruined civility. Notice that the anti-smokers refuse to compromise. But even better, the fire chief said he can live without them :-)

Washington Township (Westmoreland County) fire Chief Dan Black, chairman of his company’s bingo, said not only is bingo revenue down 15 percent to 20 percent, but the ban has pitted smokers and nonsmokers against each other. Smokers want breaks built into the games; nonsmokers don’t. “It’s something that didn’t matter two years ago. They sat side by side. It wasn’t an issue,” he said.

Black said he can afford to lose the nonsmokers.
