LINK Florida Gov. DeSantis signs beach smoking bill
(I am pleasantly surprised to agree with something DeSantis did. Still, I don't think it makes him a good person.)
TALLAHASSEE - Gov. Ron DeSantis on Friday signed a measure that will allow cities and counties to restrict smoking at beaches and parks that they own, according to information posted on the Senate website.
The bill (HB 105) builds on a 2002 constitutional amendment that prohibited smoking in restaurants and at other indoor workplaces.

Many states and localities have been doing that for parks and beaches for years.

Bravo!
Amazing this despicable Republican governor did something good for public health.
I hate the way smokers bury cigarettes in the sand. They treat the world like a toilet.
Smoke blowing in my face? Second-hand smoke causes cancer.
