Subject: RE: BS: Smoking vs Non Smoking Venues
Yeah, if you took all allergies into account, nothing would exist. There's always somebody allergic to something.

But when it comes to proven cancer-causing agaents... that affect the people who don't actually smoke it, I just have to say WTF do you think you're doing? Killing yourself is against the law. Killing other people is murder, and is also against the law. (Both written and moral.) HELLO! Just because judges are themselves addicted to the stuff, and just because there is an economic payoff from the tobacco industry, doesn't give people the right to kill.

If we had a really non-smoking venue in town, it would be good. I might even be more tolerant of smoker's rights to kill themselves any way they please, if I had a place to go to. All we have is the Opera House, which is stuffed-shirt and expensive, both for listening and booking. And there's stale smoke in there anyway... I really like that place in Newmarket... whatever it's called.
