We're gettin' steamrolled at an ever accelerating pace.
NIME, where do you see it going after that?
I'm not NIME (thank goodness), but what I see is bans on fast food (obesity), alcohol, perfumes, peanuts, dogs, cats, free speech, privacy.... |

Amazing - I stop by and say hello and this thread becomes one of the most popular you've had in a long time - Wow - the hate that is built up inside so many of you...It's so sad to see.
Yep, I'm pretty direct.
I don't like you at all, you are a smarmy little [beeyotch] who needs his ass kicked.
Too bad I am Quaker, people like you test my faith.
So, lets cut the crap, you intend to steal my rights, nothing says I have to kiss your ass. |

Yep. Sums it up for me, too. The rabid hatred has rubbed off now, and it's starting to be returned. How's it feel? I used to have compassion, but it was legislated and taxed out of existence.  |

Where's it going?
I agree with you about restaurants / bars - within a few years, 75%-90% of the US population (or more) will live in a state that are smoke free indoors. I also expect you'll see that the next front (already beginning) is condominiums and apartment buildings along with smoking in cars with those under 21 present. You'll probably see some California beach towns going smoke free on the sand, but this won't catch on everywhere, but who knows, maybe I'm wrong.
Hopefully I didn't reveal anything from those secret BIG-PUBLIC-HEALTH documents that they sometimes let me see during our briefings, LOL. |

Thank goodness is correct!
You're wrong about all those bans...perfume bans will remain where they are now - pretty much only in doctor's offices, and even then, it's voluntary. Peanuts - caveat emptor - better labeling, but not banned. Free speech - I'm told I am paid by the word. If you think you don't have free speech, spend a month in a Muslim country and try speaking openly.
As for alcohol - you tell us that all bars are going out of business, so no need to ban alcohol, right? |

Steal your rights? Which right is that? You have no right to smoke, except as regulated by law. The laws represent the people and the people are more and more frequently expressed their desire to have laws protecting them from breathing in second hand smoke. The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people. The power to ban or allow smoking in public places belongs to the states and the people and their voices are very clear. |

Fer gawd's sake gilster, you think he's EVER going to get it??
Not in a million years.
Not in My Eyes? You don't have any fvcking eyes to begin with, no fvcking brains, but what matter? You've probably got no life at all anyway.
Patience people. The wheel keeps on turning, Nime's brain might be frozen in time, but events aren't. A new generation is coming up, one that's gonna fvcking see through ALL this bs
Thanks for those links gilster. |

Of course not cricket, I'm writing to people who view this site - I was writing AT NIME not TO him.
NIME's a very useful 'TOOL' - got everyone hopping again on this public boards. Breathes new life to the fight.
Thanks to NIME  |

Hey oNLyiNyOurmOuth, I m curious as to your hatred against smokers in general. Can you answer that? You really seem to revel in others misery, comes across pretty odd, (did a dirty smoker make you play in his "nasty spot"?) As to your comment on future bans, especially indoors, I m hoping you guys will at least let us go to smokers "summer camps", wont you? I agree w/ Gilster, youre inane posts are quite amusing!  |
