A control-freak would include those who claim that the people of a state or a private business may not set their own rules of conduct.

I didn't say they couldn't do it. They will have to suffer the consequences though. Are you on a no smoking jihad as well? Trust me, the issue is control, nothing more, nothing less. If it wasn't over control, why would they ban the employees smoking in their own cars? They'll be coming after smoking in private houses next. You know, for the children. Once that's done, why there's no limit is there? "While we're here, what about those guns you own?". Believe me or not, I don't care. It will happen though.

Freedom and liberty are too messy. Can't have that.

Too late.....they've already started it in some places.

I ran my business from my home in Delaware. After the smoking ban was enacted I couldn't smoke anywhere in my home if I had any employees.....even if the employees were smokers themselves.

I'm not thrilled with Lowe's policy toward their employees, but as long as it is the decision of the business and not the government I won't deny their right to do it.

I just wonder how many that are applauding this decision by a private business to make these choices on their private property will still be so supportive when the government starts forcing other private businesses to do the same on their private property.

Did you hear on the news last week where THREE states have passed laws where the Feds and cops need NO warrant to come into your home? I saw New Orleans, but wasn't able to stick around for the whole piece. Do you know what other two states this is, besides La?
