27. Outlaw tobacco; substitute nicotine patches and gum instead for the
addicts. We've made drunk driving and being drunk in public crimes; why can't we make being under the smoking in public a crime? Or at least, smoking anywhere in public or in the presence of children in a private home should be a crime, as that is harmful to others (including 2nd hand smoke wafting out of one apartment into another) - "harmful to others" is why drunk driving is illegal; 2nd hand smoke is harmful to others as well.
