I don't smoke and can't stand the smell, but if folks want to smoke outdoors I'm not going to fool myself into believing they're jeopardizing my health just so I can act indignant (as so many do).
The real problem is auto and industrial emissions. So why are we focusing on asinine, token legislation such as banning outdoor smoking instead of addressing the real issues?
Is it because most Americans are flagrant consumers of fossil fuel and most Americans don't smoke? Throwers of stones in glass homes...
