Not the wild west anymore, clean it up a bit...
that ban is in place. only places such as bars, that do not serve food allow smoking in their business'
Funny how you can't smoke cigarettes in Austin anymore but you can carry up to an ounce of pot and only get a ticket
you can smoke both in Flamingo Cantina!

Your motto for the day. I like it. Wish more people used that logic.

For those who favor banning cigarettes, I don't smoke, hate smoke, but people are hooked and should be allowed to smoke. The states make a killing off cigarette taxes. I don't smoke, so I'm happy to see others paying taxes for me. I bought Philip Morris stock because it almost always gone up and pays a great dividend. So, don't smoke, just profit off those who do.

I also own MO and PM but don't like Medicare and insurance companies have to pay costs associated with smoking

My health insurance company posts stastics indicating that they pay 65% more in medical costs over the life time of a smoker or tobacco user than a non-user.
