ONLY IN SAN FRANCISCO CAN THE SOCIAL GRACES OF THE MARLBORO MAN, A WESTERN METAPHOR AND PERCEPTION OF RUGGED INDIVIDUALISM, BORN NOT OF THE WEST RATHER THE CANYONS OF NEW YORK CITY MARKETING BE TRASHED WITHOUT SO MUCH AS A WIMPER FROM THE RESIDENTS ... BUT PERHAPS – THE MARLBORO MAN ALONG WITH INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS IS JUST A MEMORY.

| WELL, IT'S REFRESHING TO KNOW THAT SMOKING DOPE IN PUBLIC IS SAFE AND A CONTACT HIGH IS O.K. FOR CHILDREN, CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES AND OLD PEOPLE |
"IT'S WIDELY KNOWN THAT SECOND-HAND SMOKE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AS MANY AS 73,000 DEATHS AMONG NON-SMOKERS EACH YEAR IN THE UNITED STATES, AND THERE IS NO SAFE LEVEL OF EXPOSURE," THE SUPER-VISOR SAID.
SAN FRANCISCO IS CONSIDERING A NO SMOKING BAN AT OUTDOOR EVENTS ... NOW HERE'S MY QUESTION ... IS SMOKING MARIJUANA PERMITTED IN STATE PRISON? IF SO, THEN IS THE WARDEN AND BY PROXY THE PRISON DOCTOR A DEALER? AND, WOULD CIGARETTES BE ELIMINATED AS A FUNGIBLE CURRENCY FOR A JOINT & SPECIFIC THC & BRAND OF CANNABIS OR BETTER WHAT WOULD A DOCTOR'S SCRIPT BE WORTH, IN THE JOINT?
SAN FRANCISCO IS NOT THE ONLY CITY/TOWN WITH RESTRICTIONS, ALAMEDA AND SEVERAL OTHER BAY AREA CITIES ALSO HAS VARIOUS RESTRICTS IN OUTDOOR AREAS OF CAFES, RESTAURANTS AND NEAR ENTRANCES OF BUILDINGS; BUT SMOKING DOPE MEDICAL OR OTHERWISE IS O.K.
SUPER-VISOR (ALL SEEING & KNOWING), ERIC MAR STATED, EVENT SPONSORS WOULD ALSO BE REQUIRED TO NOTICE EVENTS WITH 'NO SMOKING SIGNS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS". NOW HERE'S THE RUB - IT MAY NOT BE POSSIBLE FOR THE CITY TO ACTIVELY ENFORCE THIS TOBACCO BAN SHOULD THE LAW PASS. SO, WHAT IS THE POINT?
