Re: Smoking Bans and Crimes?
it's not a crime but they will throw you out if you smoke in an establishment that doesn't allow smoking. I'm sure if you repeat offended you might get a misdemeanor.
If you totally disagree with the topic, why didn't you speak up when that person brought up smoking bans? Why didn't you bring up another topic?
Not trying to play the devil's advocate here, but your teacher is pretty much right. If the government says it is illegal to walk dogs without picking up their poop, it is now illegal in new york to walk your dog without picking up the poop. You will get i think a half grand fine. If this is not an example of what your teacher says then I don't know what to tell you. The patriot act literally allows the government to over ride THEIR OWN LAWS, and become a complete dictatorship.
crime
–noun 1. an action or an instance of negligence that is deemed injurious to the public welfare or morals or to the INTERESTS OF THE STATE WHICH IS LEGALLY PROHIBITTED.
Wouldn't that make any law the government passes that is broken a crime?
