I don't care if people want to smoke in their own homes or cars
(except
I get squeamish about both when there are young children there, but
if
people chose to smoke around young children it is their choice and
they
must deal with the consequences)
be allowed in public buildings. That is the case in my county and I
like it. I am far from left wing, a registered Republican for 40
years.
I drink wine, lots of it, but I never drink and drive and I
definitely
don't pour it down the throats of people who are repulsed by it. My
drinking it in public does not automatically cause me to do either of
these things, while public smoking does cause others to partake
against
their will.
Would I still go to casinos if there were no drinking? Yes, I
would. It would be a trade-off of one vice for another and I would
consider myself to be better off for only partaking in one at a time.
