Here's your post to me:

Compared to being shot, smoking IS a candy-a**ed risk. ;-D

No one made that comparison. (This is YOUR remark, cinFLA)

You're really out of it. Admit it. You lost. You can't argue. You have a poor memory. You are outclassed.

My opinions are on my private property therefore they are my business.

Fair enough. I was concerned you were preparing to demand that others behave in the same enlightened fashion as do you. I'm happy to share a thread with a defender of liberty.

It was an observation.

But please free to push the Abuse button, your usual tactic.

Please. Compared to smoking 2 packs a day, drinking a cup of morning java is a candy- risk.

Your first post on this thread was to me and was about another off- topic thread. Please.

I have said quite clearly here that smoking should be legal. The only bone of contention is between myself and the folks that call it junk science that smoking is bad for you.

Most of what I see called "junk science" is the nonsense surrounding second-hand smoke. Are you saying you don't believe the anti-smoking crowd is manipulating public opinion with assertions so they can regulate behavior they disapprove of? Second-hand smoke has not been proven to be a cause of cancer. Simple as that. That anti-liberty forces propagandize the issue is simply their modus operandi.

And you call me dense.

Actually, I didn't call you anything, I asked a question. You seemed to be siding with those here who oppose liberty. My mistake.

I'm currently in the middle of writing a piece about the Michigan Governor.......It's titled "Booze and Butts for the Kids."

I have been asked (actually demanded) to not post to one of the regularly appearing nicognatzies here on FR who loves to make blatantly false statements and refuse to provide proof of the assertations.

Obesity is a condition; smoking is an activity.

Shouldn't obesity be classified as LACK of activity? :-)

No, that wasn't the spirit knocking. That was you, self-righteously asking me whether I cared more about God or cigarettes, after having made the riDICulous statement that cigarettes have replaced God to smokers.

Take responsibility for your OWN words, and quit equating them with the holy spirit's promptings. You're quite the whited sepulchur, aren't you?

Freedom lovers love to breathe smoke-free air. For decades smokers violated my right to smoke-free air.

Too bad, Gabz. I think I'll impose that rule on myself, and stay off the smoke threads. Some of these posters....tsk tsk...

Goodbye, all. I'm going elsewhere.

We probably have a lot to agree about here. My concern is with those that want to regulate smoking in restaurants and other private areas. Smoking in public areas? Have at it. Smokers don't own them, the public does.

I'd get my mouth declared a super fund site but nothing in my tobacco contaminated mouth starts to compare to the bovine refuse that comes out of the mouths of liberals.

Smokers on the other hand have no regard for the wonderful gift of life they have been given both in quality and quantity, nor the waste of the assets from their labors nor the effect on their current abilities. In short, smokers have replaced God with tobacco.

Sounds pretty judgemental to me.
Maybe I'm biased, huh?

Smokers put their cigarettes ahead of virtually everything. They put them ahead of their health, they put them ahead of their savings, they put them ahead of the effects on their own children. Yes, smokers definately place smoking ahead of God.

Describing reality isn't judging. Its reporting.
