This is the one area where Godwin’s Law does not apply. The first anti-smoking laws were instituted by the Nazis. They have these stupid laws at most hospitals now. As if someone smoking in a parking lot 1000 feet from any building endangers anyone else’s health. Lunacy. Medical imperialists ... The new Nazis.

Glad you don’t live next door. Your selfish attitude does harm to innocent people who come into contact with your smoke. Smoking bans are one of the few things with which I am in agreement with Liberals. Smoking is a filthy habit that kills.

When I was hospitalized last year I had to smuggle my tobacco in and indulge in a very subtle manner. Damn nazis.

Smokers are easy targets and a great nanny state revenue source.

Wonder why hospitals don't take the same nazi attitude toward the 50% of their staffs that are statistically OBESE ?

Sanctimonious hypocrisy and piss poor role modeling much ? !

I defy you to provide any actual evidence that there is harm.

Next door as in the house next door with a back yard next door?

You cannot mandate what some one does legally in there own home or yard because you don’t approve.

Your Lib is showing

I am afraid that too many will quit smoking. If not enough tobacco taxes, then we will see taxes on chocolate or guns-— all for the chilrun of course.

Because there's no such thing as "second hand obesity."

As long as I can’t smell the $hit, he can smoke wherever he chooses. I am just thankful that NONE of my neighbors are smokers and that we are all on 1.5 acre lots. And it isn’t “my LIb that’s showing,” it my right not to have my health impaired by some Nenderthal who’s still bent on killing himself.
