>>Geez smokers are bad but everybody driving alone in their cars polluting or dumping tons of toxic waste into landfills is ok? I have a mother and I for one don't need somebody to tell me what is or isn't ok. I don't need the Government or some indignant person telling me that my behavior is a violation of their right to do the opposite.<< I don't recall saying anything about dumping toxic waste into landfills being ok. Anyway, I know you have a mother, but mine is deceased, so I need the Government to tell me how to behave. ;-) If I ask a smoker to stop polluting the air I'm breathing, I'm not asserting my right to do the opposite of what he is doing. I'm asserting my right to breathe. If I were to stand around waving a stick of strong incense in people's faces, I'm pretty sure they'd ask me to stop. This is just a matter of basic consideration. Like not talking in theaters. People sometimes have to ask each other not to do inconsiderate things.
