The more things change, the more they stay the same [View all]

In a GD OP regarding a proposed ban on smoking in public housing this reply had me wondering why no one in this group ever thought of this?

12. It's all about controlling the choices of others

And folks have seen this coming from the time people worked to ban it in bars "Oh, no, we don't care what you do in your home! We just care about what you do in a bar. Trust us."

If you don't fight the little things they become bigger.

Same with abortion. Your body, your choice, but some people want it outlawed and will gnaw away at it bit by bit.
