When I came to the conclusion that banning smoking from the BB house is the right thing to do it did not come easy to me to join the banning brigade on this issue. Under normal circumstances I am strongly anti ban and anti censorship. What i think of Government rigged organiasations like ofcom would desire a level of language not suitable for this forum.
With regard to my opinion on banning smoking in the BB house. My sentiment is not about banning people from smoking per say but banning the promotion of a killer habbit to the young.
BB is watched by young people and young adults anxious to show off how grown up they are. These people of all are vulnerable to the influence of contestants in the BB house.
Seeing characters they love indulging in a killer habit is like promoting smoking to the young. In spit of my general anti banning sentiments I still feel a ban in the BB house in view of the influence on youngsters is fully justified.
You may not agree with my reasoning but that is how I genuinly feel on this issue.
If like me you are anti banning of this that and the other then I can understand your annoyance at reading a post suggesting the opposite to what you believe in. However what annoyed me with your response was not the fact you did not agree but the sarcastic nature of the reply.
I would have hoped for a debate rather than an insult.....
I would like to draw a line in the sand between you and I as perhaps we misunderstood each other at different levels.
As far as I am concerned no ill feelings held. Regards. bananarama.
