Light up in Glens Falls parks and face jail time

Light up in Glens Falls parks and face jail time

* Lighting up a cigarette at city park or playground could soon land a smoker in jail for up to 15 days. The Common Council adopted a local law to prohibit smoking of cigarettes, cigars, pipes or any other form of tobacco products at city-owned parks, pools, beaches, playgrounds and other outdoor recreation areas. The city already had a smoking ban put in place several years ago by a Common Council resolution, but there were no penalties for violation.
Fifteen days.
No sarcasm left,just shock and awe.

  1. What about personal VAPORIZORS? What if you vape ZERO nicotine juice? Illusion or not, it isn't smoking and it isn't a tobacco product.

  2. The same people who don't like smoking don't like vaping because it looks like smoking.

  3. Fredo, Kings County in Washington State ban e-cigarettes because we look like we smoking. It don't matter to them if they have nicotine in them or not.
