there's a guy in powellville who burns down a dwelling whenever the bill collectors are calling. first a chicken house, then his house, then another chicken house. he single handly keeps the fire house busy

That's why I don't rent to smokers.

The apt complex needs to adopt the no smoking policy like the one at homes of foxfield has. They make the residents walk out to the main road. No smoking on the grounds.

You damn well better have proof before you make comments like that. Sounds like an easy win with a lawsuit.

7:56 Yeah lets discriminate against all smokers because a moron occasionally starts a fire through carelessness. I'll be damned if I will ever live anywhere that I have to walk to the road just for a smoke!

8:29 Maybe if you didn't smoke ($2500/yr.), you could afford to purchase your own home and do whatever you want in it. You won't be smoking in one of my houses/apts.
