Smoking ban claims another victim in St. Paul

Smoking bans eliminate smoking patrons from establishments. The few smoking patrons who still frequent the mandated non-smoking bars and restaurants are forced outside to enjoy their habit........that's when many smoker's are victimized.

Local media reports the story of a woman who was forced outside, due to the smoking ban, and then was violently attacked.

Huh, seems to me that if smoking bans weren't initiated by "politically correct" activist groups and the ever powerful pharmaceutical nicotine interests, an astute lawyer would have a field day with a lawsuit against those who enacted laws which forced Margaret Dean into harm's way.
