Re: In RI tomorrow
 

I'm sure there are alot of "tree-hugging hippies" that are smokers. Both sides of the political spectrum are guilty of infringement on our rights. Cough...Patriot Act...cough.

I agree that people have a right to a smoke-free meal, and being a smoker, I personally would not light up next to him if someone asked me not to. But we should have certain rights if smoking is not to be made illegal. Soon we won't be able to smoke outside. We'll be hiding in our houses, puffing away, big old smoky recluses. Not the most attractive picture ever, but heck, it's addictive.

I'm not in favor of subjecting other people to my habits, but I am definitely not a big fan of legislation that reduces people's rights. I would have a problem if all establishments were required to have a smoking section, as well. That's not fair, either. Establishments should be able to decide whether they want to be smoke-free or not.

Anyways, if smoking cuts off ten years of your life, its the last ten, right? The sucky part when youre old. :smokin:

I agree with everyone who said it should be the establishment owners decision. Post a sign "No Smoking" or "Smoking Allowed". Then you can make a decision as to whether you go in or not and you know what to expect.
To pass a law that applies only to certain establishments is ridiculous. What's up with allowing smoking at LD and Newport Grand? They are State of RI money generators thats what.
