MAYOR MICHAEL BLOOMBERG AND HIS WACKY BANS HAVE NO END. WHY DOES NEW YORKERS PUT UP WITH THIS LOONEY TUNE?

THE KUHNS REPORT

LAS VEGAS - Hello America, and how is the world treating you?


What the hell is the matter with the residents of NY,  specifically New York City? They let Mayor Michael Bloomberg walk all over them. Here he goes again with his bans and restrictions on people who supposedly lives in a FREE country.

Bloomberg's new proposal now intends to restrict people under the age of 21-years old from buying and using cigarettes. WOW!

Here is a guy who used his billions of dollars to buy an extended term as mayor of New York City and who throws his money at his puppets on the New York Health Department and elsewhere to get his way. He has served three consecutive terms since his election in 2001. When is enough  - -enough? This man should have been out of office years ago if for nothing else than passing all of his wacko bans and restrictions.

Any prejudice, likes and dislikes Bloomberg has causes him to pass a law to benefit his beliefs while ignoring the people of New York City. If anything should be banned in New York city it should be Bloomberg himself.

Here's a small guy with a small mind with his billions of dollars buying everyone and everything he wants. He has never, ever served in the military but  is now telling all the men and women who are under 21-years old and  serving,( unlike him), in the military that they cannot smoke. They are not ADULTS in his small mind.  Years ago when I was a young man in the United States Marine Corp there were many Marines that were under 21, fighting and dying for  the freedoms of this America and believe it or not many of the Marines as well as service people in other branches of the military smoked cigarettes, both on and off the battlefield. A comment to New York's mayor: It's an old saying but worth repeating: Mayor Bloomberg. " If a man or woman UNDER the age of 21-years of age is old enough to fight and die for this country and the freedoms that we Americans previously enjoyed (before your bans and restrictions) - -then that man or woman is old enough to buy and smoke cigarettes."

And a message for New Yorker's: Can't you see  that your individual freedoms and your freedoms of choice are being  taken away, piece by piece by Mayor Bloomberg who enjoys playing puppeteer and pulling the strings of his Health Department puppets to rationalize his edicts of ignorance? I think what he continues to do is wrong. I suggest that  New Yorker's stand up and tell this man that their freedom of choice is far better than his RESTRICTIONS of those freedoms.  I would like to think that the people of New York City has the right to smoke, drink alcohol and sodas (any size), eat whatever foods they want (prepared with the ingredients they choose) and ingest any legal substance into their body.  There is no doubt that any reasonable and prudent person  knows what is good for them and what is bad for them as they make their own decisions in their daily lives and live with the consequences of their own choices. Who needs mayor Bloomberg to tell people what is good for them?

Personally, I think this mayor is a joke. He doesn't smoke himself so he passes restrictions and bans so as to serve his and his familes self-interests. It appears he has a problem (in his mind) with sodas and sweet drinks so what does he do? He restricts the amount a person can consume in one cup. His mind tells him saturated fats MIGHT be harmful to EVERYONE so he orders restaurants and fast food businesses to restrict them.

Folks Bloomberg set himself up as the nanny of New York City. He apparently wants to take care of  every person in the city from cradle to grave telling them "He knows what is best for them." He apparently believes he is God and can keep people alive and away from the grim reaper.. I ask you, how dumb can that be?

Clearly the people of New York City or for that matter anyone in the United States does not need a keeper and someone telling them  "I will look out after you because I know better than you.
You don't know what's good for you, but I do."

Folks, this is America. Every individual person can make their own decisions. We have a mind of our own. We as individuals based on our OWN decisions will pay the consequences for our OWN acts.

I don't think Bloomberg should have ever been mayor of ANYWHERE. Further, I believe  the only reason he became mayor was due to his billions of dollars he has and the enormous amount of money he spent to win election.This man looks to me as if he lacks common sense. Instead of him learning government and politics and addressing those important issues he apparently would rather use his office for his own personal sandbox deciding what he can do to restrict the freedoms of the people in New York City.

I would think Bloomberg should know better than most that people who have been smoking for decades are still living and enjoying life today. He is a living example. He's still here  after living in a time when people smoked around him all those years.  It didn't kill him nor did it kill all of those  elderly lawmakers on the Hill. All of those lawmakers are old enough to have been around when smoking was commonplace. Yet these nanny do-goodies don't want to face the fact that like drinking, overeating, and other indulgences it is not something that fits everyone. Every person and every persons body is different. There are those people that are currently 80', 90  and yes, even over 100-years old who have drank alcohol, smoked cigarettes, worked in bars and taverns, even doctors and their patients smoked in the doctors office, Cigarettes and tobacco were the norm. These same  elderly people also ate the fat foods like butter, gravy, eggs, pork chops, mashed potatoes, bacon, pies and cakes and lived to their  ripe old age.

I also submit that people who have never, ever smoked tobacco, drank alcohol and/or soda and who never ate rich, fattening foods have indeed  suffered illnesses such as heart problems, cancer, breathing problems and such. The list of ailments and disease occurring in nonsmokers can go on and on but Bloomberg and his ilk would rather take away one's right to choose and restrict the freedoms of America to satisfy their own dysfunctional thinking. - And, that's my opinion.  Make your own decisions. You decide.
