The City of Kennesaw, GA, has passed a law banning smoking (even outdoors) in it's parks. "To protect the childddddrrrrreeeeeennnnnn."

I hate smoking, and have little sympathy for those adicted (apologies to Tom E), and the change in American attitudes towards smoking over the past 40 years is one proof of the ability of education (anti-smoking type) to produce changes.

I think, though, that if it is a legal product, much of the anti-smoking law is crazy.

Let me also through in another slam at the "Big Tobacco" settlement, giving states money to continue anti-smoking stuff. Much of that money has been thrown away on other projects.

If smoking is bad, and it is, let's just ban cigarettes and cigars.

If smoking is bad, and it is, let's just ban cigarettes and cigars and quit the fund raising via tobacco taxes.
