I Smoke...

[Angry White Male]

So I ingest Polonium-210.  It's a highly toxic, radioactive substance.



I handle bare lead bullets, and don't wash my hands.  I also shoot in enclosed spaces.  I then pick my nose and put my fingers in my mouth.  Fairly toxic.



I handle Mercury in enclosed environments, with my bare hands.  Could be toxic.



I drink to excess quite often.  Could be toxic.



I inhale Diesel fumes all day.  Might be toxic.

So, if I want to walk around Chernobyl, who the fuck has the right to worry about my "safety?"



I'm not having kids, so it's not like some mild DNA deformations could be passed on...

People should start worrying about themselves.



I do not like heights, and refuse to climb them.  Yet, many people will climb high, and fall to their death.



I do not care about these people.  Unless they were retarded, they made a calculated risk.  They either won, of they lost.



If I want to enter a site that's deemed "dangerous to my health," that nobody's business but my own.  I accept all liability.



I have to wear a hard-hat on many job sites, even though nothing will fall on my head.  How do I know this?  There's nothing overhead!

Mel, even if there is something falling from above, you need to wear a hard hat like Joe needs to wear a jock.

[RW]

Mel, these laws exist to protect idiots like you from themselves.

It is not that simple Mel.

And speaking of poisons, I stocked up on Christmas supplies today after work. A carton of smokes, a bottle of pinot noir, a bottle of Glenfiddich, a sushi platter and cheese, veggie and processed meats. That and topping up my fuel took a few hours. You have to love the busiest shopping day of the year.

I know.  Liability.



I own a company, and employ one person...  Which is myself.



People still get too exited...



I smoke in the cab of my employers vehicle (which happens to be me also)...  In Ontario, drivers have been ticketed for smoking in their cab.  Something about a "smoke-free" workplace.



That's a Provincial ruling that doesn't affect BC, yet...



You see what can happen, though...

We have a distracted driving law which is kind of vague. They can ticket someone for eating or smoking.

Ya, we have that here also.



It's sort of vague, as to how it is applied.  I suppose it's up to the discretion of the cop.  I have never been issued such a ticket.



However, if I was hit with this ticket simply for smoking, the cost to the taxpayers when I fight this through every means of the justice system, would far outweigh the revenue from the initial ticket.

Fucking nasty habit.

[Blurt]

Mel, you're a liability to yourself and you don't even see it.



You need a new prescription for your safety goggles.

That's the big complaint about Alberta's distracted driving law. It's up to the discretion of cops and of course the quotas set for them.
