Its not fair that you think you can tell someone they cant do something that is legal.
You're confused here. What legal activity am I telling people they cannot do??

Alcohol is legal yet many places don't allow it. Even many outside, public places.

It is your choice to gamble with your health. You are not allowed to impose that choice on me.
Yeah the letters in red appear to be you telling a person that should not be able to do that legal activity. Since you are telling them they have to put it out. Is that not your opinion on how it should be?

Then there is the letters in blue. Seems you are using the exact words" You are not allowed" .

Are you saying that ONLY smokers suffer COPD? Guess what ... this is a relatively new disease ... smoking tobacco has been going on since before the United States even existed.

This is the problem with trying to promote irrationality. You're arguments get more irrational as time and again you grasp at the next straw man.

Brown bag it if it's in a public place.
