    At least most tobacco users have the decency to not ruin enclosed public spaces for the general populace.

    Because we banned them doing that just recently? And could and probably should do the same if any actual action or progress could be had these days?

      Precisely. The fact is it isn’t just tobacco users banned from doing it, but all smokers. Difference is that weed users don’t give a crap.

        Hmm… Is that true? It’s not like smoking bans are actually all encompassing its still mostly local precident and business decisions.
        I am not sure I have seen someone smoke weed where they couldn’t smoke a cigarette, or where banned a cigarette smoker might illegally light up anyways, other than vapes which are still also in high contention and not exactly banned.

        I think you just have a stigma and an axe to grind that specifically singles them out because of a internal problem you have.

        Anyways, good luck with that.
