The topic is smoking, so the OP singled out smoking as the topic.

That's your way of writing that you don't actually have enough
knowledge of the subject to support the position you're taking on it.

There are people who get sick looking at gay people but that does
not mean it should be an illegal activity. This is just political
correctness run amok.

No, I disagree. It's a fact that secondhand smoke has caused
health problems for people for a long time. We're finally getting
around to logically responding to that issue.

Please provide some scientific studies to support what you're now
stating as a fact. I'm not convinced that these health issues are
directly related to 2nd hand smoke vs something else they were
exposed to.

The anti smoking crowd is telling smokers they
can't even have a bar dedicated to smokers, far from anyone who
might be offended by it. They say they need "equal access" to
that bar so they can be offended and close it down. Smokers seem
to be the only group of people who have no rights in this
country.

Smoking isn't a right - it's a want, a bad habit.

Are you having difficulty remaining on topic here?

It seems restaurant owners don't want to cater to just smokers
because that eliminates a growing population of people who would
not ever become patrons of that business because of the health
hazards there.

Speaking of real, actual, health hazards.. Have you stopped driving
while talking on your cell phone yet? Or, do you still think that
using a hands free device makes you a safer cell phone using driver?

Hmmm. I most certainly don't understand how I can access a copy of a
zip file but then not be able to unzip it so I can watch it. That
seems VERY clever!
