[quote=Anonymous]If smoke stayed inside the four walls of the smoker's apartment, then I'd be against banning it. Unfortunately, that disgusting poison spreads everywhere and is basically impossible to contain. And, as the parent of a young child with asthma, who lives in an apartment with neighbors who smoke - the smell was masked by air freshener when we toured the apartment and signed the lease - I am absolutely thrilled at this news. Secondhand smoke is a major factor in SIDS, childhood asthma, etc. It is a very serious health hazard for anyone within 50 feet of it. The only way to protect non-smokers from second-hand smoke is to push smokers into spaces where the smoke can't harm other people. If you're going to live near other people, you can't poison them.[/quote]
