Today Starbucks increased their smoking ban to include the 25 feet outside their stores. They are now on my banned list for good. Its not enough all these self righteous hypocritical people forced us outside in all kinds of weather to smoke. And just for the record I was fine with that after awhile. I do understand the dangers of smoking and second hand smoke but now they are hitting the outside and thats where I have to draw the line. So whoever decides to follow suit will also go on that list. If all the smokers did the same thing these companies would have a hard time surviving. Thats just my opinion and you can put it in your pipe and smoke it!!!i

They did that cause most have tables outside the store for customers, so they are protecting those customers from the second hand smoke also

Git 'em

Time to switch to an electric cigarette.

I dont care why they did it, they have a right to block us from smoking IN their establishment but when they start messing with public domain they are going....TOOO FARRR!

Garys not a happy camper this morning. Grateful to be alive after a tornado ripped thru our town last night. Fortunately the apartment building I live in wasnt affected other then a power outage but I may have to buy some new underwear Anyway because of that Im fired up today so let somebody say something stupid!!

@FunkThis: Oh well I think its still considered THEIR property so they can make those rules on their own property. I like it personally cuz my son is allergic, so I know he can enjoy sitting outside without having to breath in someone else's bad habit

@Briteeyes: Thats what their case was for stopping the smoking inside. So now they can just sit inside in the CLEAN air.

i smoke a e-cigarette quite often but sometimes you need the real thing
