PRECIOUS

PRECIOUS, PRECIOUS, WHAT A PRECIOUS PERPETRATION OF A LIE. THE SMOKING BAN IS AN UNFUNDED MANDATE (WITHOUT THE MONEY TO FINANCE ENFORCEMENT.) YET IT MANDATES WRITTEN RESPONSES TO CITIZEN COMPLAINTS FOLLOWED BY MONETARY PENALTIES. PRECIOUS IS THE SERIOUSNESS WITH WHICH I HEARD PUBLIC HEALTH OFFICIALS PONTIFICATE OVER THE SECOND-HAND SMOKE LIE. PRIVATE BUSINESSES ARE NOT EXEMPT FROM THE NO-SMOKING LAW. SOME SCHOOLS ARE CONSIDERING BANNING OUTDOOR SMOKING EVERYWHERE AROUND THE PREMISES. PRECIOUS IS THEIR DESIRE FOR EVERYONE AT WORK TO "BE ABLE TO BREATHE FREELY. PRECIOUS THEIR ATTRIBUTIONS TO SMOKERS AS "RENEGADES" AND "CRIMINALS" WHO THEY WISH TO DETER BY A LAW WITH "HEFTY TEETH." PRECIOUS IS THEIR SINCERITY AS THEY STATE THEY DO NOT WANT TO "ANGER" OR "ALIENATE SMOKERS." THEY ARE ANTI-SMOKING BUT PRO SMOKER (LIKE ANTI-WAR BUT PRO SOLDIERS). ALL THIS PRECIOUS INSANITY IS IN THE NAME OF THE SECOND-HAND SMOKE LIE. SECOND-HAND SMOKE, THEY AVOW, CAUSES DEATH AND DISEASE. EVEN ITS "ODOR ON CLOTHES" CAN "TRIGGER AN ASTHMA ATTACK. CHILDREN IN HOMES ARE OBVIOUSLY NOT SAFE. SECOND-HAND SMOKE FROM CIGARETTES, CIGARS AND PIPES IS KILLING US AND OUR CHILDREN. PRECIOUS WILL BE THE PRICE INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM PAYS FOR THIS POLITICALLY CORRECT LIE.
