People need to get out and push their legislators to enact laws to put an end to this BS.

How ridiculous... Now smokers do not have the right to work? I just cant even come up with the right words... I keep typing something, then deleting it... just wow and wtf.

I live in Columbus and voted for the Casino to come to town with hopes of having a venue to go to for entertainment...but if I'm not good enough to work there b/c I have nicotine in my system then I'm not good enough to spend my money there.

This is wonderful news! An association so concerned with people's health that they refuse to hire the dregs of society -- people that use nicotine!

One can only imagine what other novel approaches the Toledo casinos will adopt to ensure public safety and the casino experience...

They won't serve alcohol, right?

They will dispense with the age old ploy of not installing clocks on the wall so people will realize how much time they are actually spending in the casino, true?

There will be large windows so that the sun can shine in during the day and people can opt for an outdoor activity instead of gambling under the guise of nightfall, yes?

Perhaps they will set up cash limits so that folks wont gamble away their hard earned money foolishly. I could just see it now -- a pit boss taps one on the shoulder and says; "Sir, you have gambled away your agreed upon allotment of dollars and are now being cut off. Please have dinner on the casino's dime and thank you for your patronage".

Such dignity in these tough times. God bless them for being so caring.

to enact laws to put an end to this BS.

Our elected officials are on the Corporation's payroll.
Do not look to them to appose the decisions of their employers.

For all those who remember and loved George Carlin
as one of the few with the guts to stand up and
tell the truth...I offer this video in his memory

DISCLAIMER: Those who might be offended listening to the
Cold Hard Facts or might be offended by a few swear words
please do NOT watch this video

I'm in Columbus as well.
Wild horses couldn't drag me in to one of these stupid casinos.
I only voted for it because I know it pisses off many republicans and their religious cronies .

Before I started getting involved in vaping activism (at 45 years of age) I would have never understood this.

But now I know that his words hit the bullseye of truth.
And the ones with the dart in their behinds is us.

And it goes far beyond vaping, doesn't it?
It goes to the core values of humanity and fairness and freedom.

We will rise up some day, and dump the tea into the Boston Harbor again.
Hopefully it won't be too late.

And now I sound just like all the kooks who I thought were kooks just a few years ago.
But now I know better, and I am ready and willing to fight.
