      <![CDATA["A sadly ironic side effect of all this is that the "hippies" who forgot their heritage and supported this kind of thing will no longer be able to smoke their joints at the music fests: they no longer have tobacco smokers to hide behind. Can you spell 'Unintended Consequences'?"<br>

      <![CDATA[I wouldn't have a problem with designated smoking zones with actual ashtrays. But the main problem here - for me at least - is that too many smokers don't seem to think of cigarette butts as trash.

      <![CDATA[I support limiting people's exposure to second hand smoke but criminalizing it with jail and draconianly high fines are overreaching and turns the image of Atlanta into a harsh and unduly punitive looking city.

      <![CDATA[If Atlanta boasts a pipe fanciers club with a nice solid membership of respectable gentlemen in their 60s through 80s, perhaps they should join together as group for the festival and have a smoke-in! After all, aren't "smoke-ins" a tradition at such events?

      <![CDATA[Atlanta has a long history of passing laws that it has no intention of enforcing. (Remember the no-panhandling zone?)<br>

Unfortunately, this very good law is probably going straight to the junk heap like the rest of them.
