Many chains had gone completely nonsmoking before the ban, because they wanted something other than white trash to come to their establishments. Plus the nonsmoking trend (like most all trends) started nationally WAY before Ohio came on board.

I haven't directed a single one of these comments at him either, which is what makes it sad

I know I have a strong opinion compared to most, but I've deliberately not made it personal

not really, I lost my dad 7 years ago to smoking. He was warned for many years about smoking....combined with black lung.

It's clearly a racist comment. Duh. Black smokers everywhere are offended.



But seriously....for as non-racist, non-sexist, non-homophobic, and non whatever else you want to label me I am, I automatically assume someone is trashy because they smoke. I may really like the person, but that's one thing I just can't get past.

Mirg is a pretty ok guy, but he is being a ginormous bitch about this. He needs to shut the hell up.
