Poll question: What do you think of smoking bans? |
|
New York State passed a law this year that bans smoking in most places of employment and business: restaurants, bowling alleys, bars, etc. What do you think of laws like this, are they good or bad? Please respond below if you wish.

that smoking bans are a good idea. There is nothing that I hate more than going out to a restaurant for a nice dinner, and having someone at the table next to me blowing smoke right into my face. It's just disrespectful, in my opinion.

I'll add that organizations like the American Lung Association and the American Cancer Association wholeheartedly support bans like this, for public health.

4. Ok to ban in some places, but not all |
|
Allow smoking in bars, some areas of restaurants, bowling alleys, pool halls.
Ban smoking in places of employment, places where there are lots of children and in airplanes and buses.
I don't smoke, but I don't mind it as long as I can walk away if it bothers me too much.

7. As my friend Paul used to say |
|
"Some day marijuana will be as legal as smoking." Well, that day is almost here.
