In Our View: Ban Smoking in County Parks | April 27

Full story: The Columbian

Steve Stuart and Tom Mielke still don't get it. The two Clark County commissioners just can't bring themselves to ban smoking in county parks.Oh, they're "getting it" when it comes to political points from some folks who praise them for supposedly upholding smokers' rights.

Hugh Jass Nashville, TN	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #3 Apr 29, 2012 Judged: 4 4 3 Making smoking tobacco illegal would make it easier to address problems with people illegally smoking other substances, since they could no longer pretend that it was tobacco smoke.
Bill Seattle, WA	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #7 May 12, 2012 Judged: 4 4 4 Smokers should never be allowed health insurance or free healthcare from the state. Making society pay for the treatment of those who are willingly trying to destroy their health and eventually their life through smoking is dead wrong.

Hugh Jass Nashville, TN	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #17 Jun 6, 2012 Of course, when the next step comes up down the road, it won't be the 'baccy lackeys who pushed this token tokin' regulation who will be blamed for making it "harder and harder" to find a place to smoke, it will be the people who WANTED that to happen now and OPPOSED the half-measure. Smokers won't remember him as the guy who didn't want THIS restriction put on them, and they sure won't blame the tobacco companies for this one, thought it is part and parcel of their standard game to push something weak-to-useless in order to block anything significant.
