Yeah ... NYS --- I don't smoke anymore and dislike the smell etc - but hey - people have their rights - having smoking areas for outside work areas and restaurants - that's ok. Something that was passed recently - but we will see if it's enforced is no smoking in public parks. Seriously?

That's what I read in an article posted in the new York post and apparently you now have to be 21 to purchase tobacoo in multiple states including new York .

Its illegal to smoke in all california parks now too, and anywhere on pacific ave in santa cruz.

Other example: AFAIK there are 2 public areas in Bristol, UK now where smoking is not allowed and in Brighton it is talked upon to ban smoking at the beach.

The fucks wrong with this world.

Yeah, exactly.

I don't smoke but I think they are going to far with this smoking band. First you can't smoke in a bar and now parks. As long as you don't throw your ciggerate butts on the ground I don't see the problem.

I'm a huge fan of fresh air.

Laws just get tighter and tighter.


When is the last time you heard of a law affecting everyday folks being repealed?

Had no issues with nypd bothering me when I was around the east village. Then again they didn't bother us for drinking in public/smoking weed in public/sleeping in parks so idk, maybe I just got lucky? I think it was probably just passed so nypd can arrest more non-white folk for no real reason.
