Nah bro, it's progress. We need to encourage and/or force people to stop their bad habits.

a bar near me has a designated smoking room in progress, which i think will work out fine. i mean grab your drinks and go to the designated room if u need to smoke. that way it kinda doesnt screw both sides.

as for in parks and on the beaches? i think thats a little extreme. now i dont really smoke that much but i no longer have a problem with it and out in the parks and beaches, there is generally room to move as not everyone is smoking- at least in my experience.

i guess so, but would be more preferable to at least have like "smoking" sections in which smokers could go and smoke if they did have a craving while at a beach or a park.

like i said.. your parallels don't help or even make sense. rosa parks didn't cause cancer.. she was discriminated because of her race.

And smokers are discriminated against because of their smell. This isn't about cancer, because if it was, smoking would be banned. This is about moving smokers to the back of the bus.

To think all this time we've been treating skateboarders as second class citizens

Private property owners can do that.

edit: I remember skating all over the place, and it was only private property we weren't allowed.
