Looks like we're seeing quite the trend here. D.C. is now contemplating a comprehensive ban and the "doing it for health" reasons is definitely winning out over any notions of self-control and responsibility. I definitely can't wait for the pendulum to swing to the other side. Hopefully a lot of these laws will be changed to be made more practical in later years upon greater reflection by the voters and politicians at large. Rather than look for either party to help us out, it's up to ech cigar smoker invidiually to make their voices heard by running for local offices and writing letters to the editor. We can't blame the "hammer" of government if we refuse to become the citizens who want to use it. . .or stop it from being used.
