I do it every day, on that very same sidewalk, and nobody cares.

Stupid law. The State refers to the tobacco tax as a "user fee". I pay the damned fee, I use the product. One cannot rightfully charge a fee for something and then deny the payer what they've paid for.

Private property? That's starting to sound like Canada. I guess smoking under a blanket in your basement can still hurt someone's feelings who lives on the other side of the street.

You use to be able to smoke in the Dunhill store on Newbury while trying on bespoke clothes & sipping a Scotch. Last Dunhill store I went to in December wasn't even selling cigars...

I'm just sick of being treated like a pariah and being made to pay (higher taxes) for the privilege.

I know I've come off pretty grumpy lately, all around, but it's not always easy to keep a sunny attitude. I'll try to lighten up; I'm starting to irritate myself.
