This attack on smokers will never stop. It is an insane crusade by anti-smoking zealots to deny smokers any personal freedom to enjoy themselves no matter how much they politely concede to the zealots' crusade. The anti-smoking zealots are never satisfied. They will never stop attacking the rights of those they wish to crush. Even when smokers retreat and wave the white flag, these zealots still attack them.
A teacher's assistant gets fired, because she smelled of tobacco. Many shopping malls don't allow smoking in the acres of their open air parking lots. Even though there is not a scintilla of scientific proof behind it, secondhand smoke is now considered a killer right up there with cyanide. Not joking, thirdhand smoke is a new crisis that they are focusing on. I could go on and on, but that's enough for now.
However, these zealots will never stop...
One would think that these zealots would rejoice as former smokers gave up their Marlboros and switched to totally non-polluting electric cigarettes, that only put water vapor out into the air.
Nope, the zealots are not rejoicing. Their crusade goes on. They hate the non-polluting electric cigarettes too.
How do I know...?
This afternoon I went to Buffalo Wild Wings in Middletown, Kentucky, and there is now a large sign on the front door that says, "NO E-CIGARETTES ALLOWED."
This will never stop until...
p.s. I smoked a half pack of cigarettes while making this post. I'm 68 and still alive. Duncan, my 16-year-old cat, is right here next to me, and he's still alive and well. Unfortunately, the dozens of pantry moths that flit around, are all still alive too.
p.p.s. Anti-smoking zealots have NO sense of humor.
