Smokers are discriminated against to protect non-smokers around them.
Alcoholics are addicts, and would be no different than a homo nimphomaniac. That doesn't mean every person who drinks is a social outcast.
Gambling addicts are the same as alcoholics. Non-addicts aren't social outcasts.
Being fat alone hardly makes you a social outcast.
Your opinion of why smokers are legally discriminated against is irrelvant to the fact that they ARE legally discriminated against.
Alcohol .... one ounce of alcohol will cause you to blow a .1. The legal limit is .08. Blow that .1 and see how society via its laws discrminates against you. Whether or not you are an addict is irrelevant.
The only people I know who don't think gambling at any level is an addiction are gamblers.
GMAFB on the fat people. Fat people are shunned at every level of our society. Hell, I've seen fat people dog out fatter people and call them "fat." But you go ahead and thumb thorugh ANY fashion mag you care to choose and see how many fat people you find modeling the latest styles, selling MJ's latest sneaks, etc.
