I remember as a child, everyone seemed to smoke. I remember people smoking in hospitals, McDonald's, in line at the DMV, movie theaters, every restaurant, even the poles that hold up the ropes that kept people in line, jad ashtrays in the top.
Then someone decided, the smokers had to go to one side of the building. Smokers relented as it seemed reasonable. Then it was decided that smokers had to go outside..... again, smokers just wanted to be left alone, so they relented.
Then smokers were told they were too close to the front.... go down the street.
And on, and on, unril now, it's near impossible to find a legal place for a smoker to go.
People think the NRA is an evil empire of the evil Gun Industry. It's not, they are made of 5 million private citizens, who are taking a stand, instead of being shoved down the slope.
