7. Babykins....You sound like you would defend Typhoid Mary.
Pastor Martin Niemoller's comments:

First the Nazis came…
First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out—
because I was not a communist;
Then they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
because I was not a socialist;
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
because I was not a trade unionist;
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
because I was not a Jew;
Then they came for me—
and there was no one left to speak out for me.

This is a lot different than keeping smoke (not the smokers) from public spaces.

And people can still smoke. And we don't put them in concentration camps and gas them.
