the point is why the fuck should i cut my enjoyment because of someone else. thats bullshit, im completely within my legal rights here.

and smoking is a right, its not a priviledge

everyone can smoke if they wanted to

thats why its a right

if only a certain section of society, say, people who made a certain amount of money, then it would be a priviledge.

learn the difference.

I don't care how fair or not it is to you. You can just go to a different resturant. I don't go to the chinese place in town because I don't like chinese food. Should we make a law forcing them to serve burgers and pizza so I can be happy? No. I simply choose to not go there.
You don't have any right to go onto someone else's private property. You seem to think otherwise.

ya Lando, in Canada, they can no longer advertise or use their name as a sponsor for any type of event.

Cigarettes will never be completely banned but the govt sure is doing its part for them to not be used. In Canada cigarette taxes are huge. You have to pay upwards of around 6 or 7 dollars for a pack of smokes where I live. And I wouldn't be surprised if that price increased in the near future.


The problem with a privately owned building setting the laws within its walls is that the public would have to know the rules of every single place. For all I know a convenience store could have a law that says they have the right to shoot you when you walk in, but the one next door doesn't. What if 50% of the stores had this law? You'd have a 1 in 2 chance of being shot. I'd hate to be going on vacation somewhere and not realize that the minute I step through a door I'm going to be killed, only because I didn't do enough homework and discover which buildings I can safely go in and which I cannot.
That's why laws were developped for the entire population. It creates a safer environment for everyone, otherwise we'd spend all our time tip-toeing around wondering if we were commiting a crime without even knowing it.
