[quote=Anonymous]First I realize smokers are the only group you are allowed to hate so there a lot of hate out there but the risk of second hand smoke are greatly exaggerated indoors and non existent outdoors and laughable for vaping yet that’s banned too. But here are other consequences of thenew Moco ban. First, even though the ban is civil in nature and enforced by the County DOH it will still refill in people getting arrested . How? If you don’t comply with bar staff you become a tresspasser and can also be arrested for disorderly conduct. So manager tells person to stop smoking and they refuse. The bar or patron calls the cops the smoker gets arrested. Second, even if they comply and leave the premises they are now in public and are subject to public intoxication . Third, POC and lgbt people smoke at higher rates and this will be arrested in higher numbers due to the first and second reasons I listed above. But I get it you hate smokers so you don’t care[/quote]
