My body = my body.      
      The conclusion to draw from this seems obvious to me.

     

     *      

     If I am free to do with my body as I please, then I am free to take my hands and place them around a gun and contract the muscles in my finger while the gun is aimed incidentally at my brother's head.      

     *


   
    American dream stands for freedom to do whatever the hell you want as long as it does not cause harm to someone, their property, or liberty. You smoking can't cause any trouble if it is in a smoking bar, or your bedroom, etc.

   

   You are your own property, though, according to the initial premise.


 
  Which is why you can do whatever the hell you want with it.....

 

 then you should put it better so that it represents exactly what you mean. this is why us smokers have our rights stripped away so often. you guys don't know how to argue


I would note that your challenge of my argument is based on the strawman fallacy.


if only i had a brain

no see you say something, but you don't define it well enough so that someone who isn't telepathic knows what you mean.

if your argument is semantically self-contradictory, then people with an agenda can easily defeat your argument



Defeat the argument? Their argument is "I dont' like smoke it is bad" then the courts rule that "Hm, that's a good point, no smoking in bars anymore" while the smokers are like "WTF why can't the business owners choose?"

I said something similar to this -_-

It should be legal, and individual businesses should decide to implement their own smoking policies.

People do far worse to their bodies and minds.
