I do not smoke and thankfully never have smoked. I really hate the smell of the smoke and have no idea why people choose to smoke.

That said, I think that out in the open and away from entry/exit doors, people should be allowed to smoke, in most places. I think this is another example of too many rules in our "Live Free or Die" state.

I am also concerned that this will drive smokers away, lower the tax revenue the state takes in on tobacco sales, thus further increasing the property tax burden.

I can understand not allowing people to smoke at youth athletic fields. That makes sense. But, to ban smoking at the beach makes no sense at all, at least to me.

Can't they have a smoking area and a non-smoking area at the beach.
