I think it is a good law and I enjoy not having to breath all that
smoke every time I go into a local bar or grocery store.

For my two cents worth, I like the ban on smoking. However, I
do wish they would allow smoking of other items in its place, at home
obviously. Ray Tulsa OK
Now that I have quit smoking...I think it's a good idea. I never
thought smoke would bother me..I smoked 3 packs of non filter Pall Malls
for 40 years...never thought I would get thro my Vegas trips without
smoking..but here I am! Giving up smoking in the Casino's,
restaurants vs giving up Vegas...Vegas wins! Most States have the same
laws re
smoking...most people are used to it! Sandra Sigmund

It is my pleasure to smoke and I really dont want some law telling me
what I cannot do, I think it is a bad law, let me die the way I want.

I think it is a terrible law. I am a smoker. My rights to smoke are
being violated. I eat less at the finer restaurants, unless with a
group.I leave less of a tip because, i am not relaxing after a meal
being hurried along. I hate the new rules, you can smoke in most casinos
there should be a place for us smokers, rather than outdoors. We don't
cry loud enough I guess. Why not limit the drinks also. They can kill
also. Some who drink, do drive. Think the goverment would go for that.

i smoke but i have learned to live with the new laws. i wish i
could quit i truely do but as of now i'm a smoker. you learn to adapt,
overcome ect. i'm good with the law, smokeing is offensive to non
smokers. however i do wish some kind of compromise can be taken. giving
us smokers the ability to smoke in restricted areas. maybe a section in
a rest. in a
bar in some area ect. that would be cool. ventilation would be a problem
of course but possibly a suction vent would work. ralph

Wait a second...this is still Vegas right? Why are they going to turn
into a bunch of wusses now! What ever happened to "What hapens in Vegas
stays in Vegas" as long as it is not smoking? Give me a break. Now I do
not smoke, nor do In like the the smoke, but that is part of Vegas! And
frankley it makes me sicj that the "Adult Playground" is turning into a
freekin' day care center! Leave your grubby little kids at home. Vegas
is
No Place For A Child! This is no place for a family vacation. Don

Wow...Personally I am happy for the ban. I usually hate the fact I
smell like 1 great big ashtray. That being said...It's Vegas Baby! Come
on now Understand this is place where pretty muh anything goes, and now
they want to "protect" peoples health. That is why 1/2 the people
go...to do what they want to do. Stop people from smoking? What good is
that going to do. There are many other things in Vegas that should get
the courts attention. Smoking should not be high on their list.

I am a smoker, and like to smoke while I am playing in a
casino, or walking the the strip, Fremont Street, ect. I can live
without a smoke while I am eating, shopping, and other places where
smoking is not allowed. It is better for me and everyone around me. As
much as I like smoking, I don't want to send a wrong message to the
children, or anger people who are trying to enjoy a meal. It is a good
law. Alan Wagner Sheboygan Wi
Yes, we tend to eat at our r.v. instead of going out to eat when we
visit anywhere we can't smoke. this includes las vegas.I sure don't want
to be where I'm not wanted. peggy murphy huntington,
texas
Well, my answer has to be very straightforward and simple. Both my
husband and I are non-smokers and we think it's a good law. We wish it
could be expanded to cover casinos in Las Vegas as it has in Colorado
gambling towns, e.g. Cripple Creek. We don't look for that to happen,
though, in Las Vegas. And, no, the law has not changed our trips to Las
Vegas or activities while we're there. Margaret Russell
Colorado Springs, CO
I go to places that do not allow smokeing.I have came to vegas
3 times last year. befor the law I came once a year.So I have spence a
lot more money there. But I do belive each busness should be the ones
who decide weather to allow smokeing or not.I think the goverment should
keep out of it. steve sedalia,mo
