They passed a similar bill in Georgia about 10 years ago and it never gets enforced. The police don't give a rats arse if you do or not.

I support that idea. Nothing worse than smelling like a damned cigarette.

I just wish people would stop being stupid and stop smoking, so there doesn't have to a bill like this.

People doing stupid things that harm others require stupid laws.

you can go to some bars in Chicago that "allow" smoking and it has been banned there for a while.

I'm one of the biggest haters of smoking you will ever meet but this is not an issue for gov't to get involved in. It violates private property rights and further underscores the nanny state coddling people who have their delicate sensibilities offended.

I assume that small gov't conservatives are in support of such legislation proposed by this councilwoman in this thread?

The bar ban will probably pass (with possible exceptions/special permits). I don't think the casino ban will pass.

There are many laws that are forced upon private businesses. Murder, stealing, etc are not allowed in private businesses. I am not comparing smoking to those things but smoking does affect others negatively. I dont think it is necessarily that big of a big brother govt leap to ban it


Holy shite.

The ignorance in this terrible analogy is frightening.

Please go on to read where I lightened the analogy to forcing the bars to stop serving at 2. Explain that away. Fact is govt will eventually get its way with this law by the vote of the people
