But let me get this straight, you think the problem is that I am doing something that only really hurts me, but it annoys you, right?
See, this is a fundamental difference in thought process, I see the problem as people coming in and saying "We don't like a certain legal activity, but not so much that we'll actually dedicate the slightest amount of effort to solve this problem, even if it's as simple as making it profitable to run a bar that is catering to people who don't like to be around this legal activity, so instead we'll just have some politicians tell private business owners that they cannot allow this legal activity inside their own private property."
Let's go back to the example of mesturation, how would you react if they passed a law banning women mensturating in bars, because people like me don't like being around period blood?
Period blood? That's like saying *** blood. It's all the same blood no matter where in your body it comes from. Blood circulates.
It's the Republican Censurship Brigade and the Political Correctness Squad that are trying to ban certain activities that are legal. You ban cigs then you'll have early 1900's Prohibition all over again. And boy was that a mess!
