Reply #37: So those who oppose smoking in public places .... [View All]

Are 'authoritarian' ?

They HATE freedom ? ...

Does one hate freedom when we promote in the community the reduction of the burning of hydrocarbons carbons for the sake of our planet ? .... and THIS is the hating of freedom you are referring to ? ....

Sheeesh .... dont know where to go with that .... It is as if ANY Liberal effort in the community, from keeping public places free of carcinogens to reducing global warming is killing freedom somehow .....

Isnt there a word for this worldview ?

Dont we call that Libertarianism ? ...

Tell ya what: I am all for eliminating smoking in the public buildings AND for reducing the overall use of hydrocarbon-buring devices, in a reasonable and practicable way .... If THAT means I am 'Authoritarian', and that I 'hate freedom', then so be it ....
