Was there a critical mass of people giving a shit?  If there is only one
person offended by a groups actions, they should be invited to remove
themselves.

One person's morality should not be applied to the majority.  In my
experience, and I have only used n2o in the company of my dentist (and,
strangely enough, only as a minor *shrug*), people using n2o are unlikely
to cause any fuss.  It seems like judgement of character is being applied
because of the behaviors witnessed and that is unexcellent.

If the offended party feels it is unexcellent that these people did not
respond to his request to stop, need I remind him that he was interrupting
their life experience to begin with.

Yes, "Huff'n" is illegal.  But this logic applies to any other behavior.
If only one person, out of a large group, is offended, it's probably their
problem.

Exceptions, of course.
