There is no justification at all for the City's action other than trying to demonstrate their power through intimidation..its disgusting
Unfortunately, anti-smoking zealots fail to see the loss of personal liberty brought on by their crusades......Or do they?
It has been almost five years since I have smoked, so there is no personal ax to grind, if one can accept the general loss of freedom associated with their Jihad.
And increasingly, that's what cities (and all levels of government) do best.
