III. Thou Shall Not Smoke
Now, I'm not here to debate constitutional rights or unalienable personal freedoms. In a perfect world, everyone could do whatever the hell they wanted to at any time, but we need rules because so damn many of us can't help but act like animals. Some of you evidently think that by lighting up in a non-smoking venue you're striking a blow for personal freedom; thumbing your nose at society and making a significant statement. Who are you sticking it to? Security? They make minimum wage. The venue owner or promoter? Too late, you've already paid him your hard-earned scratch to burn one. They could care less if you get your ass kicked out, at least they know the security is doing their job. The government? Spare me. So, that leaves the folks standing or sitting around you. Poor suckers whose only sin is being fortunate enough to find themselves in your proximity. Way to stick it to the (fellow) man!
