and calling people who expect us nicotine addicts to take our unpleasant addiction out of their faces Nazis is wrong.

I'm a former smoker, and I disagree totally. If you have an addiction, it's your problem. Choose to go to restaurants and other establishments that choose to provide a non-smoking environment, if that's what makes you happy. Those that like to smoke can go to places that allow it. It's an old tradition we used to have in this country...it was called democracy...and citizens could actually run their businesses as they see fit.

Well said.

Because of the well-planned, heavily-funded, PR-savvy War on Smokers, it has become very easy for even those who consider themselves conservatives to overlook the underlying issues and vote away their neighbor's rights. God forbid I should ever be so blind.
