Smoking Indoors Is Unacceptable

[kwc57]

I'll damn well smoke when I want and where I want on my private property.

Not if the law says you can't. And if it does, and you do, and I see you, I 'll report your selfish ass.

Speaking of selfish asses......

So move.

No. The smokers should move. Let them all live in an apartment house of smokers only. Let them burn it down and celebrate.

That had nicotine stains so thick it can't be painted over.

Recently came across a photo of an air out take on the side of an older passenger plane that showed this really huge dark stain.

They said it was from cig smoke.

Glad it's not allowed in planes now.

Little Rylan Weidman (10 months old) lost his life this week, in a house fire in Hillsborough county, Florida. What caused the fire is not known, but one thing is for sure >> in all buildings (residences, workplaces, bars, etc) smoking is a huge risk. Smoking in apartments is a ridiculously selfish act on the part of the smoker, which endangers all residents of that apartment house.

I’m going to go on record to say that smoking indoors (even in private homes), should be outlawed. No open flame or lit cigarette, or any smoking device, should ever be indoors, anywhere, anytime.

Some smokers may rebel at this. They may see engaging in smoking as their right, which government has no right to infringe upon. I see Rylan Weidman’s right to be alive and safe, as outweighing the right of the person engaging in a dangerous, unhealthy, filthy, and downright stupid activity.

Fireplaces ? They provided warmth for 17th, 18th and 19th century cabins of pioneers and folks living out on the prairies of the old west. Nowadays, they are not necessary, except for rare cases of people living in wilderness areas off the electrical grid. You want a fireplace, just for the cozy ambience of it ? Get a safe one – that closely mimics a fire, using electricity, and can provide heat, as well.

Smoking IN BEDROOMS is only the number three cause of fires (smoking INDOORS is not on the list).

cooking equipment is number one. would you like to outlaw cooking?

oh wait, electrical equipment is the fourth most common cause of fire. do you want to take away our air conditioners and refrigerators, too?

The Most Common Causes of House Fires

and as stated before, it is absurd to assume that a fire of indeterminate cause is related to smoking.

by the by, heart disease is the number one cause of death in this country.

The top 10 leading causes of death in the United States

The local fire chief here said chimney fires were #1 and dryers were #2. I guess it depends on where you live.

What is worse is the insert is made of tin when they used to be masonry and the flue column can't tolerate the high heat. I have worked on several house that had had fires three to five years after being built, and another problem is the people they hire for as cheap as possible, either cut corners on installation or don't assemble it correctly which also increases the risk of fire..

A mason told me they routinely "line" old chimneys with those metal liners. Those are dangerous? Most everyone around here with an old house does that rather than rebuild their old chimney. It's forced due to home insurance requirements.

If the metal is thick enough for the heat rating of the firebox. Insurance companies pull that move to save money.

I don't like to smoke in enclosed areas, so when we could smoke in-flight in the 1980's I didn't.

Not if the law says you can't.

 

[Montrovant]

Outlaw candles too! Even during power outages! Don't allow anyone to use a flame ever because fires can happen!

Let's also ban the wheel while we're on a roll.

For someone who uses the term "Liberal" as an insult, you sure like having the gov't "fix" things fir you at the expense of other people's freedoms. Far left lunatics agree with you. But the answer is "No". Whether i smoke in my house is my business, not yours.

 

[WinterBorn]

"Waaaah! Please help me government! Make everyone else do what I think is best! You are the only one who can fix things!!!"

Sounds like a typical liberal (far left even) idea to me.

It's so PC to ban smoking indoors.

I'm not a fan of forcing businesses to be nonsmoking. Why not just make them post signs if they allow smoking, and let the market figure it out.

But what Protacky wants is to take away people's freedom to choose. He wants it to be illegal for you to smoke in your own home. Typical liberal ideology.

To be fair, I was joking. I don't really think it's liberal or conservative, it's just stupid. And he wants to ban fireplaces and no doubt wood stoves as well.
