Nice to know that you're so smug about the seizure of private property and the busting of businesses.

No one says smokers can't patronize a business, only that you can't smoke there.

The only ones busting businesses would be you hypocrite smokers who prefer cowering at home with your cigarettes rather than going without a cigarette for 30 minutes,supporting the businesses you claim to champion .

Wrong. We will go where we want. And not go where we don't want. That is, until they take that freedom away from us as well.

You folks are the hypocrites. You are the ones saying that nonsmokers will now come out in droves to more than make up for smokers. If that is the case, why worry about a few measly smokers?

These businesses were doing just fine, thant you, until you folks came along. You are the ones busting the businesses.

You still don't understand that it is the business owner's property. They make the decision as to what customer they want to attract. Until now that is. Will you go to these bars and make up for the lost business of the person that goes to a bar for more than 2 hours and smokes there. Or is your "swing in and out" attitude of 30 minutes what you think will make up for it. 1 drink sold now to the likes of you vs. 6 drinks sold to the regular bar customer who smokes.

Would you be willing to pay 6x the price of a drink than what a smoker/regular will pay? If so, then you can make up for those lost revenues, if not STFU and stay at home in your "safe" world!

Listen, Jerk! I grew up in smoking restaurants and bars. Didn't hurt me in the slightest. NOR any of my friends, whether they smoked or not.

This is all Government propaganda and YOU KNOW IT!

And just why do you think we should still spend money AT RECREATION, mind you, in restaurants and bars that will be forbidden to accomodate us? You must think we are all sheeple out here.

I pity the business owner, with all my heart. But my money is my money, and it's like this: love my dog or get the hell out of my way.

I never said that I champion any particular business, buttwipe.

I do champion the right of a property owner to use his property for all legal endevours without state coercion.

No, the one's busting business are the anti-smoking nazis who pass this legislation while taking money hand over foot in cigarette taxes.

I can't wait till the majority decides to outlaw something you like to do. I'm sure you won't feel the same way then.

People who enjoy smoking don't get as much enjoyment when they're not smoking.

Someone who regularly goes to a bar may not mind spending $5-$10 on drinks for a chance to unwind and enjoy themselves. If the law changes so they can't enjoy themselves as much, that $5-$10 may no longer be worth it to them.

You've got it partially right sport, we will go to the bars that allow us to smoke and will stay away from those who choose to discriminate against us. Now why can't you have the same attitude? You go to your non-smoking bars/restaurants and help keep them in business and stay out of ours ok? That concept seems pretty easy to understand doesn't it?
