It’s time for Fourth of July celebrations. It’s Independence Day 2012, when we celebrate our independence from Great Britain. ~ yay!~
I was researching where to see fireworks near a friend’s house when I read about this town’s celebration in Connecticut that charges $60 for non-resident entry and says:
Please leave the cigarettes and cigars at home. No one (esp. the kids) wants to breath in your smoke!
That is the first time I’ve read that you can’t smoke a cigarette in a public park in the middle of a huge field with the sky above. …Oh wait, I went to NY a few months ago: “Mayor Michael Bloomberg signs a new law banning smoking in the city’s parks and on its beaches.” That’s right… you’ll be hard pressed finding a legal place to smoke on your next trip to NYC.
Maybe one day we will celebrate our independence from totalitarian rule or our debt to China.
“No one wants to breathe in your smoke!”
This whole business of so-called second-hand smoke being harmful is absurd on the face of it. It’s amazing what people will swallow.
I don’t know what it’s like in other cities, but in Chicago, on the Fourth of July, the whole city is enveloped in smoke from fireworks. I think it’s hilarious that they would ban tobacco smoke from such an event.
But hey, this is the same government that continues to insist marijuana is addictive and dangerous.
not to mention genetically modified vegetables and hormone injected cattle
