This story from the LSU Reveille also mentioned here in Michelle Malkin’s web log brings up a very good question. Why is it only a hate crime if it is committed against some hip minority? Why is it not a hate crime to vandalize the crosses used in this Christian protest? Why are Christians not eligible for toleration by those who disagree with us?

According to this story, Weyco Inc. has a policy that prohibits its employees from smoking, not only on company time, but at all. Basically treating it like an illegal drug. To me this seems like the right approach for State and Local governments to be taking; why in the world are we trying to end smoking by making it prohibitively expensive and difficult (restricting where you can smoke)? This seems really misguided. On the other hand though, banning drugs hasn’t exactly worked now has it? Much like the prohibition didn’t work. I don’t know what the right approach is.
