[quote Conniemc]Well, actually.... smoking is legal and we smokers do have a right to smoke. Your post made my point regarding "my way or the highway". Cie la vie! Have a great holiday weekend!

Driving is legal too. However, it is a privilege, not a right. Show me in the Constitution where there is a right to smoke. There is a right to life - there is no right to smoke.

I never said anything about my way or the highway. I just pointed out that when your privilege interferes with other's rights, it is the privilege that will loose. As a judge said one time, your right to swing your fits ends at my nose.

Smoking is not a right. If it was, cities, airplanes and work places could not ban it. When is the last time you saw a ban on breathing?
