Publius,

That was a pretty lame response, I was hoping for better. I have no problem with drug dependent individual's getting high all they want in the comfort and privacy of their homes and cars. But when you are in public I do not appreciate being exposed to the noxious foul smoke of people who have a drug problem. When I am in a restaurant I not appreciate having my dinner spoiled by some drug dependent individual smoking next to me. You probably would not appreciate me changing a crap filled diaper next to you in a restaurant while you ate, I bet you would find the smell offensive and it would detract from your meal. I feel the same about tobacco. The difference is you won't go home smelling like baby poop.
There is no constitutional right to smoke in public, there is ample evidence of the adverse health risk associated with tobacco usage. America is becoming a no smoking in public nation, it is time for nicotine addicted adults to grow up and recognize the trend and maybe even think of getting help with their drug problems. I will patronize no smoking establishments and I have made my business a no smoking office staffed with 100% non smokers. I do not hire smokers.!!!!!!!!!!!!! dallasgop Vote for Bush
