See....I can sound like a wing nut too.

allez, Lance, allez!

There's a similar ban in our city, and that may be shared among several Texas cities; I don't know. State facilities such as our university buildings are smoke free, and this is supposed to be extended to the grounds. Enforcement, if it exists, is haphazard at best. The people who haven't quit yet go outside by the loading dock for their fix. It can't be too pleasant (and apparently they could actually be fired for it), especially when the days turn cold. The downside for me is that their smoking location unfortunately is very near the air intake for this part of the building. Luckily it's fairly windy here nearly all the time so the concentration isn't too overwhelming.

It does not take away freedom of choice... you want to smoke... go outside. Done.

Is Lance equally as passionate about drug-free cyclists as he is about smoke-free environments?

Not that i'm suggesting anything, mind.

WA state already did the moronic, nazi, smoking ban in 2006. Slackas!!

Ohio did in 2006 too.

the only thing the TX legislature needs to worry about is passing the concealed weapons on campus bill and unlicensed open carry.

 

[FUCK THE POLICE]

And then hopefully you can descend into anarchy, all the gun nuts will kill each other, and the feds can swoop back in and restore sane civilization to the area.

Anchorage is smoke free. I don't want to take away cigarette smokers rights, but I am allergic to second hand tobacco smoke, terrible sinus infections when I bowled, when I quit bowling, the sinuses cleared up!
I need my clean air! Sorry

I don't smoke. I can't stand the smell of it, but I am 100% opposed to these kind of bans both indoor and outdoor. I have read where some places are trying to make it illegal outside as well, and remember reading about one place even trying to make it illegal to smoke in your own apartment or even out on the patio of your apartment.

Why should they worry about something as inconsequential as that?

Well gee....someone smokes some pot in public, they go to jail.....people expose people to the smoke of the most dangerous drug in the world and they expect a pass? That's fucked up.

That was caused by the hand powder you use on the bowling balls.
I used to have problems similiar when playing pool. I would get dizzy and stagger. I thought it was the que chalk, but it turned out to be the beer.

not sure. i guess avoiding 32 dead defenseless college students could be a good start. so is not having to pay 250 bucks for a license to exercise a right.

I don't think people should go to jail for smoking pot either although the smell of dope smoke is worse than the smell of tobacco.

Yea but pot isn't the most dangerous drug in the world and it hasn't killed millions of people like tobacco has.

There will be plenty of emphezema cases once it is legalized, because the smoke inhalation of dope is vastly greater than that of tobacco.
