So much for a "free country", why don't they ban all alcohol also:3:

What has a no smoking ban link got to do with people who are interested in MDX's? We don't need garbage like that to sift through.

I am only interested as far as keeping tobacco products away from my X! (not to mention my lungs)

That's why this thread is called "OFF TOPICS" It refers to items not related to our MDX's.

After all, our saintly/do-good politicians that are SO concerned over our health want the TAX REVENUE. You need to continue selling the product to collect on the tax. Complete ban you say? Doubt it....

Paul frequently posts links.

I hope he continues.

Some I have an interest in and check out, some I just ignore.

No, but many families suffer the consequences of substance abuse. And they get it first hand.
Many suffer the consequences of tobacco related illnesses too.

There are many who suffer from second hand drink!!!! Not the least of which are those families whose loved ones were killed or maimed by drunk drivers!

My father was an alcoholic, my parents divorced due to his alcohol abuse. People DO suffer from second hand drink!

msu79gt82 and DaleB,

Point taken. I am aware of the DUI issues and extreem instances of abuse in several areas. Not to diminish anyones personal experiences, I was taking a 'big picture' snapshot. Smoke in its very nature is carcinogenic and insidious. A stealthy agent that can affect masses on a greater scale. A person who commits DUI, or other abusive crimes related to alcohol abuse will soon be eliminated from the general poplation (all things being equal). However, I don't see it happining with smoke on the other hand.

Maybe I'm missing something?..:confused:

Don't get me wrong, I am not against 'responsible drinking' by any means. But what would constitute responsible smoking? Keeping it out of other people's faces, I guess.
