Now that NPR is involved, however, we probably will learn the terrible effect that workplace smoking has on fairies. I used to listen to NPR but changed the station every time they begin a story about fairies being close to normal. It is amazing how often they broadcast that message.
Um, you know that the alleged health dangers of secondhand smoke have been found to be nonexistent, right? The arguments of supporters of these bans always reduces to "I don't like smoke". Well, neither do I, but that's not a sufficient reason to deprive the business owner of his property rights.
NPR doesn't even have to be involved - just the fact that Cherner is involved tells you that.
Because we're smokers, Cherner believes he and his "partner" are better parents than my husband and I. he's a major proponent of gay "adoption."
I'm glad to know that your hatred of smokers goes so far that you side with the fairies you claim to despise over of the rights of business owners and conservatives who believe in the true meaning of parenthood, marriage, and freedom from the nanny state.
You are a typical anti - they are all hypocrites.
For the 1OOOOOO1th time, A bar or restaurant is a private business on private property not a public place
And, just as business owners can't determine their own rules for the minimum age to buy booze, whether employees should take the time to wash hands after bathroom use, or whether employees with TB, jaundice or other diseases should handle food,
Apples & Oranges. Those laws are to protect the customer of the business from immeadate health hazards the customer has no way to determine themselves. Those laws are NOT supposed to protect the customer from themselves. For instance if a customer for whatever reason didn't want to to wash his hands before eating his meal there is no such law forceing him to do so.
they shouldn't be allowed to poison the air of customers and employees
HUH? Your arguement made no sense. You are talking about buisness owners not the customer themselves.
just because some are so weak as to be slaves to a terrible addiction.
Again for the 1OOOOOO1th time, It's not about if we can or can not "Hold" out or not from having a cigarette. Of course we could and do all the time when we have/want to.
But you don't just go out to a restaurant to eat or a bar just to drink or a casino just to gamble. We can do all those at home for a much lower cost. We go out because to relax and have a little fun. (I know for someone who is misable 24-7 like yourself I know "fun" is a hard concept for you to understand ) and being treated as a second class citizen isn't fun.

That's funny since Cherner is one of those "Faires" as you so eloquently put it and a real flaming one at that and you are aligning yourself with that "Fairy". Well I guess in your case it's literally true when they say Politics makes for some strange bedfellows.
