Even as a non-smoker, I object to this rediculous measure. The SF board of supervisors as always been a haven for nutjobs...but even taking that into account, this is a virtually unenforceable code that will only hurt SF's tourism buisness.

That said.. I have to clear things up here:

First off, this is not a state-wide ban, and it's not even in effect yet.
It's a municipal code to be enacted - assuming SF Mayor Newsom signs it - on July 1st.

Second, there is no mention of this municipal code having an effect on laws outside the City and County of San Francisco.

Third, there is no mention of smoking becoming a lawful basis for firing any employee.
