Default (OT) legal encroachment that amazes me

They didn't just ban them where you're seated, they banned them from
the entire venue. Which is soooo typical. I have no problem with a
ban on smoking in bars, restaurants, etc. But that wasn't good enough
for these lib crusaders. They made it illegal to have an entirely
separate room, with it's own ventilation. They made it illegal to have
a private cigar dinner there once a year too. In the case of beaches, banning
smoking from 95% of the beach, leaving a small smoking section, that
wasn't acceptable either. When they instituted bans on smoking indoors,
you could stand outside the doorway. That wasn't good enough either,
so they instituted bans where you couldn't be within 25 ft of an
entrance, or not smoke on the entire property, etc. In other words,
reasonable compromise is useless and that's why gun owners are so
resistant to any new gun laws, because they know there is no end. Give
them an inch and they just keep coming back for more.


I've noticed that legal progression. Not only guns and
smoking, but every thing else.
