By the way, I had a look at your web site. Just wanted to let you know that while I believe smoking is bad for your health, when it comes to being opposed to government regulation of smoking, I'm strongly on your side.

I am totally opposed to government making it illegal to smoke in places of business. Let the free market sort things out: if people don't want to shop or work in a smoking environment, let them go elsewhere, and if there are enough of them, there will be plenty of businesses springing up to accommodate the demand.

Why thank you!!  We have too much government wanting to control legal activities today.  If the government wants to control something, why don't they just ban it?  Oh I forgot!  They still want our money.

I posted a thread the other day that Maine wants to start taxing gun owners.  We have a lot of hunters in Maine and I can hear screams.  The government says no tax increases, but they are still trying to back door us.

Hey, I couldn't agree with you more!

After all, what's the difference between the Gov. being able to control smoking and the Gov. being able to control eating meat?

With all the PETA PC correctness, that is already brewing.

And speaking of brewing, why not alcohol as well?
Sure that didn't work before, but since when did that ever stop a liberal??

BTW, I used to smoke intermittently, but completely stopped at age 24.
