French Fight for Their Right to Die a Long, Expensive, Painful Death

Thousands Demand Breath that Smells Like Ass and Teeth that Look Like Crap
Approximately 10,000 Parisians took to the streets last week in France to protest the coming ban on smoking in cafes which takes effect January 1st. The demonstrators walked several blocks, many wheezing, and coughing up blood, and some pulling oxygen bottles behind them as they made their way to the French National Assembly. One protester, though out of breath from the walk commented, "if I want to die of cancer and pass second hand smoke to others I should be able to, dammit... oh I feel dizzy" (translated from French).
