Whether you like it or not, smokers, your smoking in a confined space is noxious to children. My own experience as a child is that one can get used to the stench of a paper mill or a cattle feed lot, but not cigarette smoke. Both of my parents were smokers and, 45 years later, I still remember misery of long car trips in winter. Thank goodness we didn't have a car air conditioner back then!

I'm not a big believer in the health danger of second-hand smoke, but I think that this prohibition is not unreasonable. A parent's right to indulge his addictions should be balanced against his child's right to breathe unpolluted air in a confined space.

Both my parents smoked when I was a kid, and I loved the smell of cigarette smoke.

The biggest danger to our children's future is not the smoke in their eyes and noses from cigarettes in an enclosed vehicle--it is the smoke in their eyes and ears from the politicized school teachers and administrators teaching socialism, lack of individual responsibility, hatred of white males, and hatred of America.

Children can overcome physical challenges--it is far more difficult to recover from a gunshot to the head when they are forced to fight for their liberties in a future they never made.
