Smoking Ban Still The Best Alternative
Delaware County's new ban on smoking cigarettes in bars and taverns hasn't taken effect yet, but it's causing plenty of brouhaha.
If some of the story chat comments accompanying an online article in Friday's Star Press are an indication, the ban seems to have more to do about what's going on outside some alcohol-serving establishments than inside.
That's because the owner of Joker's Wild, a topless bar on South Madison Street, put up a short fence in the establishment's parking lot so patrons can smoke, play cornhole and converse with the dancers.
But there are those who are concerned that what takes place outside will not be fit for the eyes of children, even though the owner says the dancers will wear bikini tops and Daisy Duke shorts.
Anybody who's attended a NASCAR race -- often billed as family-friendly entertainment -- has probably seen far worse than what is promised to be on display at Joker's.
It's still a legitimate concern -- and there's more to worry about than just their attire. Joker's Wild staff and customers will need to watch their behavior, as well. Frankly, some things are simply better left inside.
Some bar and tavern owners have put up outdoor seating patios and beer gardens in an effort to provide a venue for smokers. Some establishments have a privacy fence, and others have a fence that's barely waist high. Whether you agree with the smoking cigarettes ban or would like to see it snuffed, bar and tavern owners are within their rights to offer outdoor seating areas, so long as they comply with the law.
We can sympathize with neighborhood residents and the public who would rather see a tall privacy fence in place instead of a short, picket fence. The bottom line is passing a workplace ban on smoking cigarettes was (and is) a good idea.
But let's give credit to business owners looking to expand opportunities to maintain or increase revenue. That's certainly their right.
We will also point out that the popularity of sitting outside during an Indiana summer -- in a parking lot, no less -- is often accompanied by high heat and humidity as well as insects.
That's going to limit the amount of outdoor activity at many of these establishments.
Some bar and tavern owners have said they might take legal action seeking an injunction to delay implementation of the ban, or overturn it. It's a wait-and-see game. Until the smoking cigarettes ban takes effect, business owners can only speculate on whether it will adversely affect their bottom line, and even then, it might be about as clear as a smoke-filled room.

Smoking Ban May Go Too Far For MSU
From a health standpoint, there’s a lot to be said for banning smoking cigarettes from the Montana State University campus. But the blanket ban on cigarettes store use adopted by campus leaders earlier this month seems a bit much.Protecting nonsmokers from secondhand smoke cigarettes is certainly a good thing, and measures to ensure that happens are justifiable. But a ban on all use of discount cigarettes on the 1,400-acre-plus MSU campus – including smokeless discount cigarette online and online cigarettes use in individuals’ private vehicles – doesn’t seem necessary to...
