No one is being banned, and while some of the problems were one sided, it was also a two way street.

Re: Town Hall Meeting on Smoking Band
I've watched this discussion go back and forth. I'm willing to leave the thread open so an INTELLIGENT conversation can occur about a valid and important topic but it appears to be deteriorating to name calling and snide remarks.
