Smoke-Free CU

I’m sure if you read the local CU blogs, you’ve read about the attempts to make the Champaign-Urbana area smoke-free. Well, I’ve written to the local paper on the subject (here).

Basically, nothing is stopping people from talking to their favorite restaurants and getting them to go smoke-free. However, instead of being responsible for ones own desires, they want their Momma (the government) to do it for them.

Grow up and do it yourself. This is America, if you want something done you have to do it yourself, not whine until the government gives you what you want. This is an entitlement attitude gone sideways and it needs to stop.
