Smokers Suck
Do you smoke? Do you hate smokers?

I know it’s pretty far away I know, but anyone who’s not busy September 19, should head over to the DeKalb Municipal Building, 200 S. Fourth Street at 7 PM. There’s a workshop talking about the possible smoking ban here in DeKalb. Myself, I hate smokers, so I'd like to see this go through. Anyways come support it, or fight it, your choice.

More info about this is available here: Smoking Ban

	Hey, you don't even need to smoke to be cool if you go to a place where they allow smoking :) Secondhand smoke yields secondhand coolness! (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	hmm exactly! If they're that sensitive about the faint smell of smoke lingering into their non-smoking section, then they should just not eat there! There are plenty of restaurants with either all non smoking, or much better divided sections. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	i will take up smoking for the sole purpose of standing outside the building and blowing it in the face of everyone who walks in. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I've been hearing a lot of mixed opinions on the dangers of second hand smoke. I find it very, very hard to believe it could be worse than actually smoking - but I'm no expert on the subject. Anyway, do you have a link to a study or anything that explains it? (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	kidxdupage 2005-08-30 11:30 pm UTC (link)
	well I hate you! (Reply to this)

	robpaulson 2005-08-31 01:59 am UTC (link)
	I'm all for the banning of anything that anyone else doesn't like! Bans for everything and everyone! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	There are some public beaches in southern California that are looking to ban smoking. It's getting to the point where smoking a cigarette is worse than smoking a joint. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	Taking smoking away from the smokers, what right do the smokers then have. Smokers have gone from the entire room to now a section and now to total elimination? There are worse causes of air pollution than cigarette smoking and you drive it. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Then there's no problem. As long as you aren't spewing smoke at me, we're cool. Let's go clubbin'! (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	They will construct large plastic tubes to contain the vile smokers. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	"If you are a non-smoker, avoid second-hand smoke." that's what the article said. avoid it, don't ban it. (Reply to this)

	I've got a great idea: Everyone just become a smoker and then we wont have to worry about it. Then we can all die of lung cancer and be happy. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Nah, if it wasn't smoking people would find something else to fight about. 'YOUR CAR IS BAD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT AND FOR MY LUNGS! BAN CARS NOW!' I vote we ban banning - but if that ever happened, we couldn't go through with the ban, because, well, banning the act of banning would already be banned. and then my head explodes (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)
