It is now the law of the land in the once-Great State of Ohio that you may not smoke in any public place or place of employment.

The law goes on to say that you MUST in every public place and place of employment POST a conspicuous sign. The law REQUIRES NO SMOKING SIGNS.

In addition, the signs must be clearly legible and shall contain a toll free number for reporting violators. (There is also a snitch e-mail address too.)



Which political nazi is responsible for this?
First of all, if it is against the law to smoke in any Ohio public place or place of employment, what do you need a sign for? I suppose you need it just in case some underinformed Kentuckian slips across the border and wants to light-up?

If you want to report me or anyone else for violating the requirement to post a sign, you will have to look up the toll-free violation number yourself!

Wake up America!

Columbus judge throws out enforcement of smoking ban against bar

Quote
Franklin County Common Pleas Court Judge David E. Cain in Columbus has ruled that the state health department overstepped its legal authority in enforcing the state’s smoking ban against Zeno’s, a Columbus bar.

The 1851 Center for Constitutional Law defended Zeno’s in the case without charge. Maurice Thompson, center director, said on Thursday, Feb. 25, that he expected the state to stop enforcing the law the way it has been against permit holders across the state, not just in Franklin County.

Attorney General Richard Cordray, however, is appealing the decision and has asked that enforcement of the ruling be delayed pending appeal.

In his ruling, time-stamped Monday, Feb. 22, Cain declined to rule on the constitutionality of the smoking ban but vacated citations issued against Zeno’s.
