WRONG! I do care about people, which is why I applaud the no-smoking laws. They are good for everyone.
That is factually incorrect. Those whose businesses have been hurt, in some cases fatally, prove this to be a false statement.
Bar owners cater to two sets of addictions: drinking and smoking. Smokers pollute the air that the rest of us have to breathe, and drinkers drive drunk and endanger everyone on the road.
I don't have a lot of sympathy for bar owners.
I still can't figure out why your pansy ass cares about smoking in bars. You have stated that you would not frequent such a place. Plus you accuse everyone that does as being an addict. You of all people should not be putting out a blanket statement.
What would you call smokers? People who have a bad habit they can't get off of are addicts. I do feel sorry for smokers because I know a lot of them would like to quit. I have also been told by a lot of smokers how lucky I am that I never smoked.
I will repeat that if public smoking only took place in bars, I would never be on this thread. But I know from first-hand experience that smokers will smoke wherever they can get away with it. When smoking is banned from office buildings, hospitals, schools, and all sorts of other places, bars get sucked into the mix. No one is going to exclude them.
Knock off the "pansy ass" bullshit. I may be gay, but I'm more masculine than you could ever hope to be.
