If this doesn't burn your butt like a 3 foot flame, I don't know what does. I HATE political correctness!

    I can understand the ban, nothing I hate more than seeing adults smoking away with kids all around them. Some people just got no sense. Burst the same time this is just another victory for the anti tobacco community.

    "You can't choose who you sit by at a parade" umm, sure ya can. Just move. I agree that smoking and blowing smoke all around kids isn't considerate or classy. Should it be outlawed? No. Leave some responsibility up to individuals. That's the "problem" with freedom; it allows a$$holes to be a$$holes. But I'd take an inconsiderate smoker over a govt that has too much say anyday.

    “We are infringing on what people perceive as a personal right.”

    Perceive is a worrisome word there...
    My advice would be to wait 'til the parade's been going a while, start at the end of it and walk quickly towards the start to fast-forward. Then light up a stick at the end. :D

    Wow. No smoking at a parade? They would have to cancel Mardi Gras. LOL. You guys live in a police state.
