I know we have our differences around here, but I think we can all agree that the smoking ban is ghey…

Is 9:30 or other clubs going to make outside space for smokers like the Norva does? (Just asking don't jump all over me please)
If people traffic in and out of a club to smoke, will some clubs start a no re-entry rule? Plus, all the smokers hanging out front as people try to come into the venue might bug some of you…
State Theatre is non-smoking and smokers go off to the side w/ no problems of re-entry. As mentioned, Norva has a pit out back, a la high school, except w/ a bar. (the night I was there, promotions & merch were outside too)

The food/restaurant comparison, not sure I understand…Besides, what about people with food allergies?

I guess we can reverse your argument, you say we choose to goto a show where there are smokers so we should deal with. Well lets try this, you are choosing to goto a show where there is non smoking, so deal with it!

The difference is that instead of a choice, this is a government mandate. The business no longer has a choice and neither does a consumer.

And those who don't smoke could have chosen to move to New York.

Businesses have a choice, stay in business or shut down/move. Consumers have a choice, go out and have a good time or stay home and commit suicide on the installment plan. One always has choices. Just because you dont like either chocie does not mean they do not exist.

Hmm, ban smoking but continue to push the last legal drug (alcohol) down everyoneâ??s throat? In fact, let us have sponsored shows at the venue! Cheers!

I know I enjoy shit-faced mongoloids ruining a song because their beer-laden brains cannot control the tone of their voices.
