Quote by: Prometheus Are you trying to be stupid? Why would you ask me a question about Nashville? I mean, I've been there for a week, but it was for the national DECA competition, wo I never left the peremisis of the Grand Old Opery hotel. |
Truly feel sorry for you. But unfortunately this is where I live. So where am I supposed to go out to eat? The answer is 0. There aren't any non smoking restaurants that I know of.

Quote by: Prometheus The only unique thing about a resteraunt is the food. If the food is safe, then the buisiness can be viewed equal with any other. If I have a buisiness, I have the right to let people conduct any legal activity I want to let them conduct. You don't have to come eat there. |
OK fair point but at the same time, I counter with "hey there are no smoke free restaurants in most states." Slowly there are localities, but as far as I know, the only states that outlawed it are CA, MA, NY, NJ, and DE. So yes I don't have to eat there but what other choice do I have in Redneckville, USA? You would probably say "Well move" Well I did move here not by my choice, but because of financial reasons. I was glad to suck in all the smoke free air in MA for the years I was there when it was illegal to smoke in restaurants and bars. And it was wonderful.

Quote by: Prometheus Obviously we are not going to see eye to eye on this one. You don't even seem to recognize smokers as people with equal rights. Grow up. |
Agreed. But you and others must also recognize non smokers as people with equal rights. The instant someone lights up in a restaurant it turns the entire place into a smoking establishment. So Smokers have "rights" but they are infringing on a non smokers "rights" as well when they burn "a vegtable" (with toxic drugs etc added) and force people who care about thier health to breath in smoke from it.
