Focktards! I have heard of proposals (including local ideas) to ban the sale of tobacco products. The "SALE". WTF???

Well I didnt have that in Vegas but many other places I've ran into that small mentality. One time it was in KC when you could smoke at the KC Masterpiece Restaurant down in the Plaza area. We was even asked to leave if we wouldnt put our cigars out. Yet there was a ton of chain smoking cigarettes stinking the place up. Another time happened up in the town I lived in at a place called A&G's. Mind you the smoking section is HUGE compared to the non-smokers. Interesting fact...So my buddy lits up a cigar after asking if it was ok. They said sure. I lit one up as well. My dad puffs on his cigarettes with the other chain smokers. Like 5 mins later the waitress comes up and tells us..we have to put out the cigars right now. Needless to say the meal was done. I guess someone was offended by the cigar smoke but not the 30 to 40 cigarettes that was being torched at the same time. Go figure. Needless to say we left for the bar where we could enjoy the cigars in peace and quiet. Only place in town you can smoke at.

Thats total BS. How can they discriminate between tabacco from a cig and tabacco from a cigar?!?

I know its already bad out here in California with the smoking of cigarettes being banned almost everyone. Theres even talk of banning smoking in public places. Im the kind of A-hole that would make sure everyone in the place heard what was going on if I were asked to put out a cigar while others around are smoking cigarettes.

I was at the bowling alley with my uncle and a friend of mine, we all lit up some cigars and were happily smoking them. My wife comes into the bar area where we are and apparently is seen by someone who knew her in high school. So I walk over to my wife to say hello and hear this person bitching about how these guys are annoying them by sitting near there table and smoking cigars, this girl happened to be a cigarette smoker. So I put my arm around my wife and she introduces me. The girl looks at me and tells me I should put out my cigar because it is bothering her and her friends. I smiled took a deep puff, then I blew the smoke in her face and walked away.

My feeling on smoking laws is pretty simple, put up a nice sign on the door that says SMOKING ALLOWED. Simple as that. People need to be responsible for themselves, if you don't like the fact that smoking is allowed somewhere don't fucking go there.

Funny you would start this thread, cause it happened to me tonight. Not for my first time either. It was an irish place, and half was none smoking ,half was smoking. It was late at night so the place was slowing down. After our meal we migrated over to the smoking area and I sparked a stogie. Not a few minutes after some "doorman" walks up and tells me that Cigar smoking isn't allowed. Well I argued, then I just let it be. A minute later my friend points out some people smoking corona sized cigars a few tables away. So next time the doorman walked past I asked him why my robusto isn't allowed but they are ok. He said cause they are smaller What a moron. I told him I'm gonna finish my stogie and drink and take off, he said he would pretend he didn't notice... Anyways, I finished and we left after awhile, but one things for sure, I ain't ever going back there. And I guess that is about all we can do, not go to establishments that don't allow cigar smoking but allow cigarette smoking...
