I am a responsible smoker and can understand that non-smokers don't want to breath my smoke, but pubs should be able to choose to have an indoor smoking area - the ban is fucking ridiculous.

To have an indoor smoking area means that I have to breathe your smoke. Do I piss in your ashtray when I need a piss? After-all I want to share the end product of my beer with you.

However, I do not get the opportunity to decide if I want the end product of your cigarette, do I? But I still have to suffer it or leave and find a non-smoking pub.

The ban works a treat in Scotland, just as it will come 1st July 2007 in England.

Every time I come home from a night out in Scotland i do not have to worry about the smell of smoke on my clothes, which also means that perhaps my lungs will last a little longer.

Pubs were originally opened to serve alcohol and not for smoking, drinking soft drinks, coffee and tea.

At last the Goverment got something right. Thumbs Up

My God, you and the people who agree with you are fucking morons.

Do you have to go to the establishment if you don't want to breathe in smoke? NO! It's a fucking personal choice that YOU make to go there. Nobody's forcing you to go to a pub to drink. Nobody's forcing you to go to a restaurant to eat. Therefore, if you're not forced, you make the conscious decision to walk into an establishment with smoking being allowed. If the establishment allows smoking, smokers are given the right to smoke there and can do so as they please.

Just as server owners in Renegade have the right to ban swearing and ban cheaters or allow it, companies should hold the same rights. It's THEIR company. If THEY want to outlaw something, THEY can do so on their own. It's their business, so they should be able to do with it as they please. If government can prevent you from smoking in private businesses, what's to stop them from smoking in your own home? You'll argue that it's in the privacy of your own home, and you own the home... yeah, but don't the business owners... own their businesses? Yeah, I thought so.

If you don't want to deal with the smoking... avoid it. As I said, nobody forces you to go to the pub. That's a personal choice that YOU make. If you run a red light, and someone else hits you, is it the person's fault that they hit you? No, you're the one who made the choice to run the red light, and you suffer the consequence of being hit. It's not their fault you're an idiot.

whoa.
