State wide ban to go into effect soon.

i recall hearing somewhere that businesses are suing the organizations behind the law for the lack of economic studies in backing it.
My attention span is too short to remember the details, Is that true?

Dunno about that. We have a similar ban here in Florida but it only relates to businesses and restaraunts and is lightly enforced. Bars are exempt.

Thats insane! state wide ban of smoking??? Thats worse than banning cellphones on highway

There are a few other states that have it as well, but the names escape me right now.

Sorry people. Smokers need to be legally prohibitted from giving others diseases. they have the morals of fleas. Ever see a smoker put a butt in the garbage instead of the street? No, and that's just nitpicking, but it makes the point.
As far as economic studies go, who are you in sympathy with? Phillip Morris??? Would you have demanded economic studies on what the abolition of slavery would have done to plantation owners in the South?
Yes, it's true about the entire state. NYC goes into effect on March 30. California has had the law for years.
Is someone here really against the cellphone law? Please, tell me that was a joke.

thank you, cybrainx, for generalising all smokers.
they are all the same; bad, bad, bad and egocentric, right?
thank you very much.

you'd think banning guns in LA and NY would be more of a priority. FUCKED UP.

I stopped smoking more than half a year ago, so I don't mind really.
I think they should prohibit cigarette sales on more locations instead of smoking. It's stupid that you can buy it everywhere, but you can't use smoke it.
Hey 4cV are you on msn right now? You don't appear online in my list.

I lived in California back when the ban was just passed. Some of the best dinning and bar experiences I've ever had. No need to strip down and leave all my smelly clothes outside on the porch.
Now living in Pittsburgh there is nothing better than getting all smoke i never asked for with my meal.

oh, the problems of a modern american!

there is no way i would drive without my cellphones, its my everyday necessity

people who get into accidents with cellphones just dont know how to drive, they could be carrying a banana in their hand and that would'nt make their driving any safer.
