smoke free nyc - good or bad?

[FollowThisLogic]

So I went to Bar 9 last night, and now everything that I wore to Bar 9 completely smells like smoke. Bad. I don't smoke at all. But hey, I went to a bar, if I didn't expect exactly that to happen, I would be pretty fuckin stupid. Even so, it would be kinda nice to come home and not smell like smoke.

Seriously though people, can you honestly say that you didn't expect this? And if it doesn't pass now, do you honestly think that it won't be passed within 10 years - regardless of who the fuckin mayor is?

Think about it..... 20 years ago (or less, even) you used to be able to smoke literally everywhere. Offices, restaurants (none of this "section" stuff), AIRPLANES, everywhere. It's slowly been cutting down and cutting down over the years, and this is just that last step that boots you guys out of your last safe zone and into the one place that they'd have to come up with a pretty fuckin hefty argument to ban - outside.

Seems to me that when smokers started being restricted to sections, non-smokers realized they had power, the power to not have to deal with smoke anymore.... it's not gonna stop till it's everywhere.... might as well just enjoy the ride, get used to going outside, cause if it doesn't happen now, it will.
