There are ash trays that fit in beverage holders. No need to be an obnoxious litter bug. Is that a constitutional right?

Then one loses a beverage holder, and they’re not in the right spot. When you treat people like second class citizens don’t be surprised if they don’t worry about your feelings. There was a nice state of detente between non-smokers and smokers in the 90s, plenty of places were non-smoking but plenty of places allowed smoking, ashtrays were conveniently placed so smokers had someplace to put the butts that wasn’t a fire hazard or littering. But it wasn’t good enough for the non-smokers. They wanted more places non-smoking, they felt ashtrays in public places “invited” smoking, they hated the cloud at the door. Well now they’ve got the world they wanted, smoking is pretty much not allowed anywhere, ashtrays are with payphones on the ash-heap of history, nobody can smoke near doors, and they’re still not happy. Maybe if they had a butt once in a while they’d relax.
