"If a nonsmoker comes inside the old fire station and states that the cigarette smoke bothers that person, then they all must put out their cigarettes," Smith said.

Not that major a victory if one whiner can wander into the clearly marked smoking area and go into their little coughing routine.

You know the antis will have designated whiners lurking about.

Many of these anti-smoker laws will pass into history’s trash heap as soon as Democrats get the perception that smokers are 25% of the population and ripe to become an organized constituency, who can vote as a block, and therefore must be catered to. Republicans, on the other hand, are a little slow to grasp the concept of “organized constituency,” “voter block,” and other advanced political concepts.

A Major Win!!

So it seems, but ...

"If a nonsmoker comes inside the old fire station and states that the cigarette smoke bothers that person, then they all must put out their cigarettes," Smith said.

there is plenty of room for abuse.
