Manhood On The Mat “The Anti Smoking Regulations” By Antonio Escalante There has been some conflict in interest in opinion in the City of Las Cruces. The ban of smoking in public places includes public parks, private clubs, and bars, has not been agreed upon by all. There has been a petition with 3,500 signatures turned in to the city council in favor of repealing the ordinance. The minimum amount of signatures needed to repeal the ordinance was 1,534. The council passed the ordinance on October 7th, 2002 in a 4-3 vote. Petitioner’s then had 30 days to file the petition. On November 4th, 2002 the ban was suspended, and is pending. Right now the ordinance only covers a persons car, home, or other private buildings, such as a smoking hotel room. People who are for the ordinance range from people who are allergic to smoke, to those who feel that smoking is bad for your health. Other’s say they just don’t like the smell. I think that they should only smoke in places like bars, nightclubs, and anywhere they serve people, smoke, smoking, places, ordinance, opinion, unhealthy, habit, been, should, just, bars, alcohol, signatures, said, public, private, practice, petition, one, now, let, going, feel, council, city, ban, asked, 2002, year’s, woman, vote, upon, turned, turn
