Hoffman says it all in his article: http://www.idahostatesman.com/2009/08/23/v-print/...
Everyone knows that second hand smoke is not doing others any sort of considerable harm. If there's any debate or question we need to bring the case studies on the subject back up to surface to be reviewed again like it was reviewed in 1993. These studies were a total of 33 case studies that proved that no one gets cancer from passing by smokers on the way to class. It get's better, some universities are discriminating against obesity and articles are now floating around about the idea of second hand obesity! Because the health concern is obviously junk media and logical fallacies I can honestly donate my thoughts about Boise States smoking ban.
Boise State has taken it's first move towards discrimination. They've driven their students against each other in a heated debate and taken away personal liberties. They've spent lots of our tuition money on campus signs and stadium smoking areas. I guess the guests are more important than the students. Congratulations BSU, we haven't seen a discrimination movement like this since the slave days and the Hitler movement!
