Default Re: It\'s official - Washington State is going Smoke Free on Dec 8th

No one wants to stand in the snow to smoke, and people in WA probably won't either.

Not many people want to stand in a cloud of smoke to drink or play cards either.

Less than 20% of the population smokes. Imposing their will on the vast majority of nonsmokers hardly seems fair.

I am uncomfortable with the perceived invasion of personal rights, but in this case I think it is well justified. Smokers aren't being told they can't smoke; they just can't do it inside public buildings.
