I find the thought of free citizens choosing to spend their free time standing around in bars, drunk, smoking, and pumping their money into government-run lottery machines, absolutely appalling.

I find the thought of the government barring otherwise free citizens from choosing to spend their free time standing around in bars, drunk, smoking, and pumping their money into government-run lottery machines, absolutely appalling to an exponential degree.

America is quickly becoming an illusion of freedom.

This law of banning smoking in bars is truly hypocritical...if in fact any of these politicians at the State level truly think the intent of the law is to save lives then just out law smoking in the state period. Not only will this save people from second hand smoke (ignoring the fact those who secured these jobs took them knowing people smoke in bars)but it will also save those people who smoke from themselves. OF COURSE THIS WILL NEVER HAPPEN BECAUSE THOSE EVIL SMOKERS PUMP OVER TWO BUCKS IN TAXES PER EVERY PACK OF SMOKES PURCHASED INTO THE ECONOMY OF THE STATE.
