Let me take another tack on this:
About 30 years ago I was visiting a winery in Napa (you've all heard the name).
The owner's daughter was giving a wine tour for us (free wine!) and went on this short speech about how, while the owner didn't smoke, he was dead set against the PC police who were ostracizing smokers.
His take was that first they would go after the smokers, then eating meat would be 'bad' and eventually, drinking wine would be 'bad for you'. (y'know..."alcohol")
That was 30 years ago...now we're at 2 out of 3...maybe he was on to something.
