I remember when they first started banning smoking in certain places. The pro-smoking people said, “When are they going to stop?”
Well, we have the answer: they are never going to stop until they effectively ban smoking everywhere.
Just for the record, this ban on smoking applies if you’re outdoors, downwind from everyone, at a private establishment, with a gentle breeze sending the smoke into the atmosphere.
I remember the first smoking bans were premised on the (wildly-overstated) health risks of second-hand smoke. This ban clearly has nothing to do with anyone’s health.
But whatever. Pretty soon the only food they’ll be able to serve at restaurants will be fat-free and completely unsalted. And it’s no longer possible to exaggerate about these things.
It’s for your own good! You’re all going to be healthy… or else…
