I agree. I wonder how many private jets Gore hires for his travels?

In my state this Novemember there is a proposition to ban smoking in all public places.


"Proposition 201 - Smoke-Free Arizona Act
The proposed act would prohibit smoking in enclosed public places and places of employment
with limited exceptions such as private residences, retail tobacco stores, and outdoor
patios. Enforcement by the Arizona Department of Health Services would be paid for by a tax
on cigarettes of one tenth of one cent per cigarette.


I am not a smoker and I hate smoking. But smoking in the United States is a legal activitiy that one may partake in.
Now if I own my own business and I choose to allow smoking, why should the governmnent tell me what I can do? If people dont want to be around smoke then they can exercise their free right by not coming into my business.

If our governments feeling is that smoking is bad and you shouldnt be allowed to do it in most places, then why not make it illegal?
Possibly because they make to much money off smokers? :rofl

Why not make drinking illegal too? Think of the lives that would be saved just off of our roads across the country. Domestic violence, child abuse, health issues and diseases would all decrease.........

Yea right..........most politicians need that cocktail hour don't they?









Hell we even have to go to the polls to make English our official language. How ridiculous is that?

And in my state if this proposition is passed.......we will be spending more money tracking illegal smokers than we do tracking sex offenders.

Ahhhhhhhh the government

Ahhhhhhhh the government

We had a smoking ban enacted here recently and they had the audacity to tell people to call 911 if you see someone smoking. By the next day they realized how stupid they were doing that because the 911 phones were tied up by people calling in emergencies of seeing people smoking!
I have to agree though that if the government is finally admitting smoking is bad and harmful to others than they should make cigarettes illegal, not just smoking them.

 

[aps]

Any law that limits people's ability to smoke is a law I love.

 

[doughgirl]

APS SAID, "Any law that limits people's ability to smoke is a law I love."

Do you feel this way over drinking as well?

 

[Captain America]

Alcohol related auto accidents cause a lot of deaths as well.

Let's outlaw cars and booze too! :2wave:

 

[25hook]

I think Gore needs outlawed....WE NEED TO STOP MANBEARPIG!

If that's a picture of Gore, the last thing he needs to worry about is smoking and stop shoving Big Macs in his face....

Now if I own my own business and I choose to allow smoking, why should the governmnent tell me what I can do? If people dont want to be around smoke then they can exercise their free right by not coming into my business

But it's ok for you to stick your nose into everyone else's legal business, right?:roll:
Read your words over and over until you yourself understand what it is you just said.

 

[Teh masterer]

"Enforcement by the Arizona Department of Health Services would be paid for by a tax"

Yeah lets pay to not smoke, great idea, that will get people voting their asses off. ./clap

Even Drudge says that only about 80% of what is on his site is actually true. Gore never said that. Never said it. Why do you think that only Drudge reported it, and provided no transcript???? Because Gore never said it. I mean come on, the guy may not be overly likeable, but he is not an idiot.

There's a smoking ban in Hennepin County MN. Part of it's justification was to protect the non-smoking employees of establishments that allowed smoking. And Employers can't discriminate against non-smokers who don't want to be around smoking. I can understand this aspect, as much as I like going to a bar or restaurant and smoking, no one should have to go their job and have their health jeopradized. Yet the stats on smoking deaths including 2nd hand smoke are slightly skewed IMO.

If our governments feeling is that smoking is bad and you shouldnt be allowed to do it in most places, then why not make it illegal?
Possibly because they make to much money off smokers? :rofl

You're not wrong, entire towns depend on their tobacco crops like mining towns do on coal.

Why not make drinking illegal too? Think of the lives that would be saved just off of our roads across the country. Domestic violence, child abuse, health issues and diseases would all decrease.........

They tried and lost the first drug war.

Yea right..........most politicians need that cocktail hour don't they?

Heh maybe they should allow drinking in the house and senate I be they'd agree more often.

Hell we even have to go to the polls to make English our official language. How ridiculous is that?

Very.

Such a dangerous point of view. What if the policy was to kill smokers? That would certainly be "any law that limits people's ability to smoke."

The ends NEVER justify the means, and whenever someone says "There ought to be a law" there ought not.

In my country it's forbidden to smoke in every public place. I'm glad about it because I don't like to breath other's smoke very much. And according to statistics (I've seen it on TV yesterday) 30,000 Europeans would die every year because of "passive tabagism". In Belgium, 2,500 people die because of it every year, this is 1,5 times more than those who die because of car accident, so it's a useful law.

But the aim is mainly to help people to stop smoking.

On every cigaret pack, it's also written (in big and in 4 languages!) "Smoking kills" and they will put a picture of smoker's lung to show the disastrous effect of smoking.

What if the policy was to kill smokers?

This policy would be needless, they do it on their own!
