Barking ain't biting.

Even fewer words than normal. The last post was four words.

And no one can tell what the hell you are talking about. (as if it mattered)

Doesn't look like Burger King.

It's the Monkey Bar, NYC. It's going to be shut down. Originally private clubs were exempt from NYC's smoking ban. At a later date, they were included. The city lied so they wouldn't oppose the measure until it was too late, what a surprise. But then, slimy liberal tactics shouldn't bother you. After all, its what the majority wants.

It's the ones that DON'T bark that you've got to watch out for.

1. Anyone who resists with sufficient vigor.

2. And no one can tell what the hell you are talking about. (as if it mattered)

Sufficient vigor? Barking ain't biting.

Try to picture one of these thugs walking into a private business and announcing that no smoking would be allowed in the place from now on.

Care to speculate what the response would be from the owner?

Now try to picture the bloodied perpetrator at home licking his wounds and plotting to have large group of thugs (who are armed) go to the same private business and enforce his will upon the owner.

That's the epitome of what happens.

Come into my business and announce that you will now dictate the terms by which I run my affairs. You would swiftly find out what constitutes "sufficent vigor".

Ok, I'll admit you got me there, Roscoe. It's a restaurant, and yes, NYC's smoking ban applies to them too. And it isn't even a Burger King.

Where do you see freeeee TELLING you it's a private club?
You assumed.
freeeee told you the name and then in an entirely seperate sentence brought up private clubs.
You know what happens when you assume.

You'll abide by the law or you'll be out of business. Here's your citation for roach droppings.

Well I was wrong about it being private and I admitted it.

But it's just a technicality. It doesn't matter if its public or private or anything else. It's in NYC and smoking is banned there.

Tell the health inspector that he hasn't proved that your failure to clean a filthy restaurant has harmed anybody yet.

I'll agree with that.
But technically, you didn't say that it was private.
