It's a lot easier for me to hold a conversation when music isn't blaring. That's why loud music should be outlawed in public.

Sad movies can lead to depression. Let's outlaw them. Attractive models can lead to negative body images. Let's ban them.
In fact, let's ban everything, then everyone will be happy. Nobody gets any rights.

Even as a non-smoker, I believe it should be up to the business owner whether or not to allow it in their place of business. I frequent restaurants that have bars, and I usually sit at the bar or in the bar section. Smoke never really bothered me, and people sitting around me were usually courteous about it. Now, people have to go outside to smoke. I don't know about those people who always bitch about "leaving smelling like an ash tray" (I never did, and I said at the ****ing bar), but I think this is much worse. They smoke out by the front door, so it hits you like a ton of bricks when you first walk out the door, or before you ever even go in. If you don't like smoking establishments, then you have the right to go somewhere else. If you don't like it, then don't go someplace you know allows smoking in the first place. It's not rocket science. However, the issue up for a vote here is for an amendment to the issue that passed last year. It would allow smoking in private clubs, businesses that sell tobacco products, etc. |

Do we all agree that smoking increases chances of disease? I hope we can agree on that.
After that, it is just a matter of degree/exposure. What dosage is required to reach the tripping point of increased health risk? I don't think it is a huge leap of logic to say a bar worker exposed to a 40 hour work week of second hand smoke would be risking their health by showing up to work. OSHA has limits on the level of exposure a worker is subjected over an 8 hour work day. For identified chemicals (formaldehyde, for instance) these are ppm levels. I am guessing that, even though known carcinogens are present in smoke, that levels have not been established for second hand smoke exposure. Politics? x

My karaoke voice is much crisper now that the Red Balloon is smoke free.

women should smoke starting at an early age because it increases their fellatio skills 10 fold imo. just throwing that out there since we're on the subject.

I drive by that place all the time. There are always 3 or so cars outside. Never been in.

Second hand smoke? Not unless you've got a study showing that it does.

That award goes to the old Jilly's downtown. The Balloon is badass, though.

From my experiences I'd give the edge to the Balloon. I was in there once when it got raided and the cops had the door propped open to get everyone out and it literally looked like the place was on fire.
