Whats the big difference? An raging alcoholic will kill a person faster than any form of cancer. |
Which is exactly why there are laws against public drunkeness.
OH NO! THE GOVERNMENT MIGHT BE DOING SOMETHING TO PROTECT PEOPLE! BE AFRAID! BE PARANOID!
You can't compare alcohol consumption to smoking because, like Baalzamon already stated, it's only affecting the person drinking it. The liquor doesn't travel from your liver into mine.

But most buildings are privately owned, and it should be the buisness owner's decision, not the state's. That is all I'm saying.

What don't you people understand about
public health? If I may get back to my burger analogy, according to your reasoning, because it's his own private property, the restaurant owner can prepare food any damn way he pleases, even if that means sliding the meat along the floor. Why do health codes even exist, if business owners could do whatever they wanted on their own private property?
