Why are UB students punishing each other? (We can't work together)

Number One) Why is UB punishing students? Our rights are ours

Number Two) Also, Why are UB Students who are in a stronger position, pusnishing other UB students who are in a lower position?

Alas, Number Three) Why do we allow other students to do this to us? Why do YOU allow it?

I'm not into smoking, but that's not the issue, smoking is definitely not the issue here. I'm opposed to my rights being taken away by another person, (ex. other students in the Student Association who voted for this smoking ban) Your rights are the issue here, and why you let others take your rights away. Its like you letting another person steal your job, or take away your man, or girl. Or its like you letting India steal all your jobs, letting India steal the oppportunity for you to work, to have children, to raise a family, or to simply party like you are in college like the other generations have, but you let a third world country's women and men steal that precious opportunity from you. And you are sitting there reading this, and you are doing absolutely nothing about it because you might be a little dumb.

Back to Reality, You vs. UB Student Association
The students in S.A. are gone in one semester, and we're stuck with this stupid law (which the Girls and Boys at SA made) for the rest four to five years of our lives here on campus... This is completely awry, not right at all

We don't know know what the deal is here, but we do know that they, the SA UB students are doing this for selfish reasons, maybe if we accept this new University Rule, then we will accept other rules, like paying more tuition, allowing Professors and Assistant Instructors to receive salary increases, allowing Univ. Police to do whatever they want with us, and allowing more of our rights to be taken in the future. I just think that this is going to hurt all of us. Like imagine if they make a rule in the future allowing all Univ. Police officers to come into our dorm rooms whenever they want to and drag us off for smoking in our rooms.......


I also agree with being given the ability to choose for myself what I want to do, instead of a law passed by some kids that states I, and you, will never be allowed to smoke again.

I agree with giving an opinion to the ub council, and maybe going into the office of the Presidents office and voicing my concern about my rights, and everyone else's rights. We should look into this and call the school newspaper and call the UB President's office and do something about it, make yourself proud!
