If it proves to be a health risk to others, I would agree. But until then, we all still have the right to express ourselves in dress, smell, and speech even if it is offensive to others.

I'm not a smoker, never was, but I think people are getting out of hand with outdoor No Smoking restrictions!
Smokers will be confined to a very small section of the beach to smoke. Any smoker caught lighting up anywhere other than that section, will be fined "$250" for the first offense!
What say you, should smoking be banned on beaches?
Smoking on the beach is like shitting on the beach. A person has no right to pollute in someone else's space. It has been proven there are health risks associated with second hand smoke.
The chances of someone catching second hand smoke on the beach is about as much as them turning queer because they set up a beach chair next to your gay ass.
My ass has been known to turn heads. Never has it been known to flip a hetero dude. Sally may be blowing smoke up my ass. And anybody who sat a beach chair next to mine would most likely be gay already. You may have the power to turn a straight guy gay, but I don't.
It's blowing in the open air. It's not affecting anyone, it's not like smoking in a restaurant or enclosed space. There are way worse chemicals polluting the air. I would think that someone who didn't have any rights not so long ago wouldn't be for imposing laws against something that isn't even affecting them. Meh, people have nothing better to do I guess.
