I dont particularly care about kids or smokers, but that being said it would be interesting to know how much it costs to enact and enforce silly legislation like this.

And yes, I understand that its all about protecting a defenseless third party, but last time I checked, the primary people responsible for protecting their children are those children's parents, if they're not interested or are unwilling, then I see little point in attempting to legislate proper parenting into them.

Hey, if smokers want to endanger their own kids then power to them. They got to this point by their own decision making process, what they do from here on out is up to them.
