[Leica] a new one

I was lured into smoking by advertising, the public nudity was my own choice.

NYC has become insanely non-smoking. I have a friend who was given a 
ticket for smoking outdoors, above-ground on property owned by the 
subway system. I haven't smoked in 25 years, and that's my choice, but I 
hate when busy-bodies legislate their will to the masses because they 
think they are too stupid to think for themselves. To my mind, we are 
going to drop dead from something, and if you want it so, it might as 
well be from smoking. What I hate even more is when you make a statement 
like I just have, and some sneaky b*stard says "It's not fair for 
smokers to cause health insurance rates to increase."  These are the 
same people who support the right to eat anything you want and have sex 
with partners who have incurable, communicable sexual diseases. Foolish 
driving, eating lard out of the can, and sex with diseased partners all 
raise health insurance rates. And what kind of morons would allow their 
lives to be led by insurances companies? Storm their offices, apprehend 
their personnel and tie them up in the public square for children to 
throw rotten things at.

All while documenting the events with the fine Leica camera system on 
b&w, of course.
