mopar, to be clear, its not banning smoking outdoors. Its banning smoking outdoors on certain city property. Like Rob, I don’t see why it should be banned it parks. But on the beach it seems people think the whole place is an ashtray. Also, on hot days many people are in close confines at the beach. I think a better solution would be a smoking and a non-smoking portion of the beach. Being outdoors, that would work in a way that it can’t, for obvious reasons, work indoors.
.
I don’t smoke, but I am just completely appalled, disgusted, and horrified by the idea of banning smoking outdoors.
Outrageous.
I love the fact that Rob and 11217 live in the same neighborhood
i dont know why, but i love the fact that me and ENY smoke the same brand.
*rob*
I’m going out for a walk now. Bringing my Newports!
Mopar – saracastic you may be, but a pet peeve of mine is parents in playgrounds whose every third word is s$1t.
Anyone who swears in a public park will be arrested.
Think of the children.
People who don’t wear deoderant will be sent home.
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And there will be no eating of high fat foods in public places either.
