We offer a tax-free means of purchasing over 600 brands of cigarettes. Why give state and local governments money every time you buy cigarettes when those are the very institutions that restrict our rights? |

Even a Federal Court in the U.S. has very critically struck down findings by the F.D.A. indicating faulty scientific procedures were used to ar ive at an intended and preconceived conclusion. Data exists and new data is continuing to emerge that shows the dangers of second hand smoke to have been greatly exaggerated. To disregard legitimate data that does not support a singularly and preconceived position, to ignore or trivialize substantial and scathing court rulings, and to ignore new emerging scientific data in totality may very well represent a position of those with a much higher agenda: the anti-smoking, prohibitional agenda. The means and f rums being used to achieve such an agenda should come into serious question. Our position is second hand smoke cannot ever reach a dangerous level, as long as a minimum of inexpensive ventilation is provided. Emerging technologies in ventilation, filtration, and air exchange have also been astounding. Perhaps efforts should be red rected towards actual "real world" measurements, actual "on site" readings, and "rational" air quality standards based on definable danger levels rather than knee jerk "0" level bans fueled more so by passion and emotion than legitimate fact. What level, upported by scientific fact, represents a dangerous level of E.T.S.? So far, it has never been defined by anyone. Get rid of the smoke... not the smoker! Accomodate both smokers and non smokers! A "total ban" or any increased restriction in a cabaret setting would be detrimental to the industry as experienced in other markets that have attempted to implement such a ludicrous and unenforceable ban. A ban would immediately cause a significant loss f revenue to our member properties and would in short order lead to the loss of jobs in the hospitality industry and in those industries that support our industry. The ban was not requested nor supported by any labor movement or union. The damage and cons quences are well documented, very devastating, and without question. The ban would create control problems inside and both noise and control problems outside. Given the fact that many nightclubs are located in semi-residential areas, where noise is of concern due to residential components, a ban will cause unwarranted aggr vation to the residents due to the likely potential of noise and other issues when patrons are forced outside of the venues.

The only way I can find you folks right now is to go to Forces New Zealand and then hit on the link to MN Forces. Since the Forces US web page is down for 60 days, this is inconvenient. I'd like to have the Forces MN URL so I can access you directly -- also to share with others. Thanks Ken |

What gives you any right to pollute other peoples lungs, help kill your sons and daughters, and corupt the american system of government. You might think the only one you a hurting is your self but really you're all just corpera e tools for misinformation. I would liken your group to a cross between the NRA and heroin dealers,with the political means to get your product coursing through as much of the public vein as possible. |

Our links page has lots of great information sites, such as Forces. Check us out http://www.smokersclub.com With so many people trying to take rights away from Americans, information is our best defense. People don't care that one group has lost a right because they are not involved. This goes on until something happens that involves you and guess what... no ne sticks up for you. Will the anti-gunner, anti-smoker look to us for help when the "fat tax" passes? When your child is in trouble, do you expect single people to write letters for your cause? The list goes on and on... until our lack of compassion or other humans leads us into a government that runs our lives in every aspect, and our grandfathers who died in the military turn over in their graves. Where is this great country of freedom going? Into the hands of the few who use us without our react ing. Are we sheep or Americans? |
