Philly Smoking Ban...AGAIN!!

The smoking Nazis are set to win a victory in Philadelphia. If mayor Street decides to pass it, that is.

Philadelphia Mayor John Street said he plans to make his decision regarding the city’s proposed smoking ban in public places this morning. City Council passed the ban in June. Street’s biggest problem with the current bill is a provision allowing smoking in outdoor cafes.

“It has the potential to destroy the environment for everyone inside the restaurant,” Street said.

Why can't they just let bars and restaurants who want to allow smoking to allow smoking. Bars and restaurants who want to ban it, to ban it. That way when I want to eat in a smoke free environment I can go to a place that bans smoking, but if I want to have a cigar while watching Penn State or the Eagles, I can go to a place that allows that? Why? WHY? WHY!!!!???
