From The Mailbag:

Dover, DE: House lawmakers delayed any action on Sen. David McBride's bill that would banish smoking in most public places until they reconvene in January.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - A suit seeking more than $1 billion in damages from tobacco companies for the deadly link between smoking and asbestos was dropped suddenly by the plaintiffs on Friday.

The Lubbock City Council should be congratulated for passing a smoking ban and forgetting history. Before the United States started passing smoking bans, it was Nazis Germany, at the direction of Adolph Hitler, where smoking bans were all the rage. During W.W.II, over 60% of American soldiers were smokers. They fought against the anti-smoking, fascist Nazis to preserve individual liberty and freedom. Hundreds of thousands of smokers died to keep freedom alive for their country and their descendents. Why is it now a good thing to trample on individual liberty and freedom in the name of public health when public health was the same reason that Hitler and his Nazis used to ban smoking?
