Check out Tommy Zman’s Smoking Outdoors Rant

Why do they attack second hand smoke? Why not chase a real killer, like second hand alcohol? Compare the number of people killed by drunk drivers with the number of those injured or annoyed by smoke.

I have news for Mayor Mike. I will NOT stop smoking my pipe in Central Park. If the already overworked NYPD actually take the time to enforce this (I hear that they arn't to keen on it) and I get tagged, I look look at as another tax. But I will continue to smoke outdoors. Period. I pay taxes just like everyone else. I paid well in excess of a million for my small office building and I can't smoke on my own property. Well, I will.
Rather than complaining about this stuff, it's time to stand up and be counted. Join me in the gentle art of protest by refusing to comply. Until pipe and cigar folks start to push back, this will only get worse. I have had enough.

It is just the popular thing to do, stroke of a pen. Does not effect him, easy to sign away.

this is so true! the thing is that they already made booze illegal once. founf it didnt work, so they are picking on us smokers...what i truely find amazing is that people i work w/ that are the anti smoking nazis are also big believers in legalizing pot. where is the logic!!!!!!!!!
