Last night- Raytown's elected "council" The Board of Aldermen- shot down a proposal to ban smoking in that western Jackson county city.
Good for them!

This is America dammit- if a business wants to have someone smoking a fully LEGAL PRODUCT inside their establishment- it should be that business owner's right to decide.
Or the customer's decision whether or not to do business there.
I'm sure someday- the "health Nazis" will totally get their way and none of us will do anything that in any way shape or form is a detriment to our health.
I hope I'm dead by then!
