Here in Ontario there is a law that you cant smoke in your own property with a kid under 16...not even in an open convertible or on a bike....
Soooo.....one of the peeps at work asked me if I could pick up her kid (13) at school and bring him to the shop. The whole purpose was because the kid wanted to impress some girl being picked up in a "cool" car........
When I answered "sorry, thats a smokers car and I dont allow riders under smoking age"...WOW---you SHOULDA SEEN the sense of entitlement reaction----pure rage, eyes bugging out, face going red...LMAO (and this is exactly the type that would have had me charged under the law if I had a smoke with her kid in it)
So here I am, scartching my head..Its my car, I bought it, I paid for it, I do the work on it, I pay the fuel and insurance on it. Some jerkwad government passed a law saying my choices are either smoke in it, or carry legal kids--but not both....so I made my choice. Since Its my car, I bought it, I paid for it, I do the work on it, I pay the fuel and insurance on it then my choice is to smoke in it whenever I damn well choose, and somebody elses kids can take the bus.......I dont recal her, the kid or the NDP ever stepping up in a -20 evening and doing a brake job on it--or even getting tools for me while I did one....
And besides that, I just LOVED shoving the socialst beeetches propaganda back in its face---"hey, you are the kind who voted in the "laws" trying to restrict me in my private property--too bad, so sad if it dont work for you now".........

X2... Thats the mentality so many have taken on these days, and I personally believe anyone who thinks like that deserves:
Funny that I should click on this thread now I just got back from our village store, where a rather large woman of probably Morrocan nationality, was buying a SINGLE packet of cigarettes...3.60 euros. She gave the guy FOUR different credit cards, and they all cam back refused. He then said 'sorry...cash or no ash' (my words ), and put the cigarettes back on the shelf. SHE nearly screamed the place down!! Stamped her foot, and DEMANDED he gave her the cigarettes 'on tick'. He just stood there with his mouth wide open....and I could not believe my eyes when he gave them to her!! After she had left triumphantly clutching her cigarettes, I said to him 'You accept a credit card for ONE packet of smokes????' and then when they are refused...you GIVE them to her 'on TICK??' He shrugged, and said 'better than have her tribe of monsters kick my car headlights in'. She has SEVEN children, is a single mother, and has a house and CREDIT CARDS given to her by Social Security? I said 'you've done it now...they'll all be at it now'. He said 'take a look at this..' and showed me a sheet of paper with a whole list of stuff she, and others, have 'absconded ' with. Guess who the 'Law' favours?? Yeah riiiight..you got it I just can't WAIT for peoples' patience to run out ..or their businesses fail

Yup, sounds stupid.... and it is my understanding that in Ontario, when you buy cigars, you have to pick them out of a catalog and the clerk will then go get them. No walk-in humidor or browsing. Amazing.... it is easier to get illegal drugs. I am sure this will happen in the US, as we have a bunch of liberal retards in office.

I love entitled people. I had the caddy at a car show a month ago and was sitting on the patio there. This guy with all kinds of chains and earrings (pimp daddy) sat on my fender to talk to a girl. I walked over with a rag and asked him to move so I could clean the spot where hed been sitting and putting his fingerprints. He just got up and smiled and asked me when I was going to drive him around. I just politely told him he didnt stand a chance in hell of being in my car. He gave me one of those 'your a racist and im gonna kick your azz'' looks. and I just walked away.
You did good. Its fun to put them in their place.

ANY display of tobacco products or advertising is banned....cigars (the good ones anyway) are kept hidden in a private room and ya ask for what you want, then the clerk goes and gets it. Regular smokes or the el-cheapo cigars/cigarellos are hidden either under the counter, or behind plastic flaps so the public cant see the packages. Ya ask for what you want and the clerk quickly lifts the flap, snags the desired product and closes the flap. The stores are even banned from having the brand names stickered on the flaps, but rather have to use codes or numbers and reference a (again hidden from view) as to what code represents what brand.
Our wonderful pile of filth social-engineering goobernment at work.
(Of course, if ya happen to work at a job where ya get to know store owners, SOME exceptions to the no-browsing-the-cigars rule may occur )

LMAO--you got it........pron is 4-5 feet off the ground, right next to motorweek, time and shopsmith...the only restriction (and only in some places) is a store owners hand-lettered sign to buy the magazines before reading them.

I got flagged down once on it. They said my passenger was under age (at the time, yes but no ID) and I shouldn't be smoking. Until I told the guy she was the one who lit up and I just stole it. "Uh... have a nice afternoon, sir."
