  2. Could the Council worry about real issues instead of complaints by few, who won't disclose who they are?

    Just how much bigotry do we need in this country?

  3. I would note here that I have had asthma all my life. I have been in several ER's for it, as have my sons.

    If someone says a mere waft of smoke puts them into fits, I believe they emote instead of think, and moving a few feet would solve the "problem".

    I should note that I worked hard to overcome the limits of my lungs, so that I could run marathons in my late 50's

    You can be a victim or not.

  4. how does the banning of smoking in a park become an issue of bigotry?

    Why can't I enjoy the park without a bunch of smoke in the air. The law isn't stopping you from enjoying your smoke elsewhere.
