Ostracized smokers forced to congregate on traffic medians

I don’t smoke and frankly don’t understand why anyone would nowadays given the known health risks, but this is just absurd. Now it’s not enough for smokers to just stand outside the office building to sneak a few puffs – they must keep their distance, huddling in the parking lot bushes or even standing in the middle of the road on the traffic median.

Sure, smoking is unhealthy – but so is getting hit by a Mack truck. If this is being driven by concern for people’s health, they why doesn’t the Nanny State just push for an outright ban on tobacco?

Oh right. That.
