These people need to go back to California.
Get a rope!
Messing with BBQ smoke is like putting beans in a bowl of Texas chili. Or putting ketchup on a hot dog. It just isn’t done!
Ah, Austin.
A little bit of Berkeley, right in the heart of Texas!
They should put electronic monitors on the residents, to make sure they can’t leave and infect the balance of the state...
...until they either cooked some of their own BBQ or bought some... I don't have a problem with BBQ smoke, except when I'm already hungry! ;-)

I lived in Austin in the early 90s and was more than ready to leave when I did.

At long last, have the econuts and super libs gone too far?
One of the most cherished traditions of Texas is Bar-B-Q.
I’m still waiting for them to devise away to curtail the “emissions” of forest fires and volcanoes.
Texans wanted their smoking bans and they got them. Now they can live with the completely expecdted continuation of the erosion of private property rights.
