we need to stop coddling smokers.

and, demeaning somebody for blowing toxic chemicals into your home is not "bullying" somebody, it's a form of self-defense - the bully is the person that refuses to refrain from engaging in behaviour that is seriously damaging to your health, despite repeated demands and explanations.

what i did was correct - both legally and morally. and, while i acknowledge that our society's values around second-hand smoke are currently disappointingly backwards, i am confident that i will be exonerated by history. i had no choice but to take action to protect myself from behaviour that was seriously damaging to my physical, mental and emotional health.

there is simply no excuse to smoke when you're asked not to, and any tactic imaginable is justifiable to protect the only meaningful thing we own, which is our health.

this is child abuse, and the man should be charged for it. worse, what it teaches this child is that bullying people is ok. and, then you wonder why she acts out.

this kind of "parenting: is the cause of this sort of behaviour, not a solution to it.

i mean, with a dad like this, it's easy to see why the kid treats others with a lack of respect, isn't it? that's exactly what she's been taught to do - and exactly what she's being taught to do, here.

please raise your voice to help put this child in a foster home where this asshole can no longer harm her.

notice anything about this picture?

rachel looks a little lonely.

it's ok - she'll be gone soon, too. replacement: fat white male.

canada: where fat, white men make all the decisions.*

*note that one of the fat, white men (the one in charge of roughly half of the population) didn't want to participate because the agenda didn't cater strongly enough to the interests of fat, white men. namely, i believe that the itinerary did not include a barbeque.
