LAX has a few outdoor smoking areas, past security out near the far end of the gates. They had a few benches, ashtrays, some plants and open air. A few years ago they decided to keep those locked... can't go out there anymore... simply because the anti-smokers couldn't handle the trauma of looking through the plate glass windows and seeing people smoking outside.
“simply because the anti-smokers couldn’t handle the trauma of looking through the plate glass windows and seeing people smoking outside.”
I like tobacco, but it doesn’t like me. I had to quit before I coughed up a lung.
That said, I hate tobacco Nazis. If other people want to smoke, that is their right.
