[Mpls] Smoking Ban

[paul weir]

Given the decibel level of the smoking-ban debate and the civility of 
the language used by both sides, I can hardly wait for the other shoe 
to drop. That would of course be an attempt by the nanny class to 
prevent smoking OUTSIDE public buildings. On the other hand, it's not 
unimaginable that the nannies will opt for the Volstead strategy and 
try to criminalize cigarettes rather than smokers -- in which event 
we'll  all end up inhabiting a smoke-free garrison state. O brave new 
world .
