Meanwhile, grannies who smoke pot for chemo in the privacy of their own homes or medical marijuana clubs are hauled off to PRISON.

Yes, the poor oppressed cigarette smokers, not able to smoke in EVERY SINGLE PLACE they want to... and if they do, they might -might, mind you- get a TICKET! That, and the guy at Circuit City wanted to check my reciept when I left the store! Fascism! Big Brother, Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan! :eyes:

Beyond that, I'm torn on this- on one hand, I tend to err on the side of individual freedom. OTOH, I was one of those kids who was stuck in a car full of cigarette smoke throughout his childhood, and it sucked. There are serious, legitimate health issues associated with exposing your kids to that crap in a small enclosed space. Maybe I wouldn't make it illegal, but I certainly think anyone who does it is a self-centered asshole and a shitty parent. At least now, when people should know better- back in the day of my folks, people were pretty clueless.
