There will be laws in every state and every town and every building soon enough, dont worry. I am also a smoker, unfortunatly have been since 16 (20 years). I never smoke inside, and i do try to be considerate when w/ friends who dont smoke. It is what it is now a days, smokes cost $5 a pack now, cant do it anywhere, and thats all fine, but like CBR said, some people need to chill out a bit, i swear some people will bitch if you drive past with your windows down and they may possibly smell it. There has to be some give and take here, and smokers have given a lot imo. I know i dont bitch about drinkers, maybe i should, but again this is where we live and these are things people do, gotta take some of the bad with the good. For what its worth, no one in my family has died from smoking yet, but i have lost 4 of my dearest friends in life to drunk drivers, so i sure as hell have a strong opinion about that.

They dont bother me unless Im with my daghter. NO ONE SMOKES CLOSE TO HER.
I did use to smoke, and enjoyed it quite a bit. I quit about a year and a half ago, sometimes I feel tempted to light up, but I resist. If I go to a bar, I pretty much expect to smell like an ashtray.

Didn't read the thread, but if I have to walk through a ploom of smoke trying to get into a building because some jackass smokers want to smoke RIGHT in front of the door, they deserved to be punched in the ***** (or ovaries). Sex doesn't apply to the ovary/ball punching rampage that ploom of smoke will induce.

Rant off.

STRONG OPINION (not whinning): Don't read if easily offended...lol

I agree here. My university has put in place a 25 foot NO Smoking border(invisible)around every school building and that is totally acceptable.

Just because it's a "bar" doesn't justify a person to smoke in (Unless deemed a smoking bar ..ie hookah bar, in which a person who doesn't like to smoke can stay the f**k out). A bar is a room or establishment where alcoholic drinks are served over a counter. That's it... "drinking"

Smoking is a personal choice people make that harm themselves and have No reason/right to put others in the way of it.**Just because its 7 degrees outside and raining cats/dogs doesn't make it right for smokers to stand in the damn doorway because they don't want to get wet or freeze...TOO Damn bad! Its your choices to smoke the carcinognes, so do it will it won't hurt others** (Extreme scenerio: If I want get drunk and drive my car because I don't feel like walking or having someone else drive me....well I better be on a close road where the only person im going to hurt is myself due to my choices)

Smoke outside, we walk around.... simple as that.

*End Rant*

This is what I call a whining post...Sometimes you just need to get over things.
Not what I consider a whining post. I would consider this more along the lines of an opinion poll. From my post, one couldcome tothe conclusion that the people who I know that smoke are a bunch of rude jerks. They leave a mess, don't consider non smokers, etc. It is kind of like me posting, "Hey someone **** their pants at work and stood next to me all day, I thought it smelled bad, and I resented it...what do you think when someone ****s their pants and stands next to you all day?" Do I have to get over the fact that when I am at a bar, someone lets their smoke go right in my eyeball and doesn't care at all? It is probably my fault and I should say something, but when I smoked I would never let that happen. If I was burning someone's retinas, I would apologive a move my cigarette. I still chew. I think it is a nasty habit, so I am considerate enough not to do it infront of my wife because it grosses her out, I don't spit in beer bottles and leave them around,I don't throw my used chews into thekitchen trash because it stinks, etc. That is what I mean by considerate. I just had an opinion and was polling others on this topic. I don't want to move gays to an island somewhere. If I had an opinion on a movie or my favorite meal or what my favorite color was, would that be a whining post, as well?Hmmmmmm, I will be more careful what I post.
