New smoking restrictions in Washington. Oh boy!

My entire point is the government doesn't have the right to ban smoking in private homes and businesses. Thats my point. The business have the right, but not the government. That alone is the crux of my argument.

You guys are right I could get cancer later. But can you prove it was caused by Second hand smoke? No. Lots of things cause cancer, and science changes all the time cause it's made by fallible man. Heck Scientists change there minds everyday. Take eggs as an example. For years the couldn't decide if they were good or bad for you.


So say I get get cancer. Prove it was because of smoke inhalation. You really can't. The fact is despite all the research we don't know a ton about cancer, and unless you two are cancer researchers, you don't know alot about it either. Oh you might know more than me, thats no feat. But you can't prove the cause of someone's cancer is second hand smoke or even 1st hand. There's alot of factors.

How do you guys explain all the people who smoke like a fire and live to be 80, 90, even 100?

Look I'm not saying smoking is good for ya. Heck no everyone knows it's bad for your health. I'm saying it's been blown out of proportion. And I'm saying people have the right to do things that are bad for them.

People do have the right to do things they want and in general I think people should be allowed to smoke in a private home. Now that being said these are homes that are subsidized by tax payer money. If you want to spend your money to buy cigarettes then make enough to afford a residence all by yourself along with those cigarettes.
