"at most, your landlord will need to get rid of the smell for the next non-smoking tenant"
And while you're there, will need to find a way to get rid of the smell for everyone in a 500 feet radius (im exaggerating, of course).
While I'm absolutely ok with it being legal, and it certainly should not be a criminal offense...it at least should follow rules similar to tobacco with a twist. That shit can seriously ruin the day of everyone living around. Entire city parks are becoming impossible to go through unless you're looking for a contact high.
So it definitely does not deserve to be a crazy SWAT team involved criminal offense, but victimless, not quite.
- ensignavenger 10y agoIt is my opinion that it should definitely be illegal to smoke (anything) on public property. Landlords should be able to choose (via terms in a lease) whether or not it is okay to smoke on their property.
- betenoire 10y agoJust to nitpick, I shouldn't be allowed to smoke a cigar around a campfire on BLM land?
- ensignavenger 10y agoI was thinking more in public places where there are other members of the public within a reasonable proximity, but I will grant you a valid point. My general proposal does not need to apply to every situation. Though defining the exact circumstances wherein someone may and may not smoke on public land may not be worth the hassle, and a blanket ban might be preferable to some endlessly complex regulation... something to think about, though. For your own health, please consider putting the cigar down, though :)
- TheMiller 10y agoActually, in that scenario, the campfire is more likely to be a health threat to asthmatic members of the public (about 7% in the U.S.) than the cigar!
- betenoire 10y agoyes, that was the twist :)
