University of Louisiana prepares smoke- and tobacco-free policy

[CajunsHat]

this is such a dumb argument...
smoking is bad for everyone...
pollutes their own body and the ones in close proximity of a smoker...
i have no sympathy for smokers...
no one forced anyone to start smoking...its a choice smokers took upon themselves.

bye bye smoking on campus (and would love all bars to be non-smoking)

[CajunT]

strange but true, my friend..Obviously it has changed since the 90's when you went last.

I don't smoke, but isn't it wonderful to have smoking free campus and have many of the same people pushing to legalize blunt and smoke in public! Genius!

I like the idea of a smoke-free campus, but I don't necessarily endorse the legalization of marijuana.

And I've never seen anybody talking about legalizing marijuana smoking in public.

I'm of the opinion that smoking in public, whether it's a cigarette or a stogie or marijuana or a Serb, is equally obnoxious.

Bottom line. I will smoke my stogies at the tailgate..







Until the cops show up and tell me to put it out.

What's wrong with stepping a few feet to burn one down outside?

It's not about the inconvenience of stepping a few more feet to smoke; it's about the government telling establishments that they HAVE to adopt a certain smoking policy.

It's pure market demand. If the demand is great enough for bars with no smoking policies, these bars will adapt or be run out of business.

Your lack of sympathy is noted. I couldn't care less though.

I was always a considerate smoker. Never smoked indoors even when there were smoking sections. I never smoked in a car with a non smoker. Now it is getting to the point of stupidity. If you want to smoke that's your business. Just don't subject others to the smoke. We are all going to die one way or another. You can be in perfect health and just die of a thousands of reasons. When they find a cure for death please let me know! = - )

The Marine got it right. More Government intervention. Its b*ll____.

Thanks njustice.

Never asked for your sympathy nor your concern about my health. Are you going to decide my dietary habits for me too?
