before it was allowed even in restaurants and not too long ago there was smoking sections in the casino
so its not that bad imo they already banned it enough.
as for drinking
a lot of people only drink on occasion or the odd time
and what do u meannnnn theres no need for it

I agree with Kardan smoking should be made illegal. It's just nasty. ohh and tattos... what a waste
The only thing to say is freedom - that, thankfully, society doesn't orbit around what smells and sights you happen like.Quote:

I find the smell of grotty fast food restaurants, the foul smell of dog poo/dogs in general and piss-soaked public toilets more of a pressing 'issue' if you want to have a campaign over smells in the public sphere.
A great deal of people find homosexuality, modern architecture, religion, dogs, cats, the Labour Party, the Conservative Party, the Sun newspaper, betting shops, ghastly public art sculptures, football, celebrity worship and many other things 'nasty' - should we ban those too? A great deal of the things above aren't to my taste, but make them illegal?Quote:

Yes, I have drank before - but whats the point in getting so drunk that you can't even control yourself? It's just an issue. And as for smoking, it would still bother me that people smoke in the streets :P I don't see why people are getting hung over some things, since this is just a theoretical question. I'm not exactly going to protest about these things, since I'm pretty sure most people would be against my views, than for them :)Quote:
