Here in Michigan they haven't banned smoking from public places yet...although many places have done it themselves. Of course there is no smoking within any hospital entrance by a certain number of feet and some even not on their premises anywhere. I was a smoker (just quit a couple months ago) and I have mixed feelings on it. Of course I have no problem with not smoking in public places, restaraunts, stores, etc...
and some towns have even chosen to enact total public area bans... no smoking anywhere in public including sidewalks and roadways
although this sounds alittle ridiculous...I don't think govt. should have the right to control people in that sense.
I will tell you one thing that will bother me way more than smoking...is someone heavily loaded with perfume or cologne...it makes me sneeze, and very difficult to breathe and can actually make me gag...are they going to ban perfume use also? Just something to think about.
You have to watch what you wish for as far as the govt. getting too much in your lives and controlling people.
