I don’t smoke, but I find the ever increasing restrictions on smoking absurd.
Sure, I understand that smoking indoors should be curtailed because it effects non-smokers, but outdoor bans are ridiculous?
What next? Corporal punishment for smoking?
What do you say?
“We need not determine whether outdoor secondhand smoke exposure actually causes harm. Because the City reasonably could believe this to be true,”.
Therefor, by this logic, whatever the City reasonably believes gives them the right to control.
I must ask, who owns “the City”?
The laws are exactly backward.
There should be smoking bans in public places, indoors or outdoors. Either that or everyone should be able to combust whatever they like in public places. Smokers are given ‘special rights’ that others do not have in public places.
But, there should be NO BANS in private places, private businesses and private outdoor places.
Smoking nazis can all kma. Myfervent hope is that one day all smoking nazis will receive the exact treatment they are so willing to foist on others.
“People who smoke are pariahs in polite, sophisticated society, but people in the lower rungs of society smoke all the time,”
Now you know liberals want to promote pot and ban smoking.
