Puppet Masters
The bill prohibits smoking in facilities that provide child care services, including private homes that provide child services, such as a day care.
"The dangers of secondhand smoke are indisputable and we must do everything in our power to protect children from this public health hazard and the life-long misery that comes with it," Cuomo said. "This measure will bring us one step closer to a strong, healthier New York for all."
This adds to existing legislation that prohibits smoking near schools and where after-school programs are held, as well as a ban on electronic cigarettes on all public and private school grounds across the state.
Comment: The 'dangers of secondhand smoke' is a myth based on junk science. See:

"unbiased news" = "fascist insistence" .
oh, the humanity! think of the children!
It's cool though, they can smoke all the cigs they want. At the end of the day they all smell like a burnt pile of shit. I dont care what you do, you can't cover cigarette smoke.
Gawddd Damnnn...Who or what got to you this bad...???
And who says one can't cover cigg smoke.
I brush my teeth...it works...chew gum..it works...open windows in house...it works...don't wear same clothing 2 days in a row without washing...it works...have regular showers...it works...see many things work...even shitty air fresheners work...
But social brainwashing leading to intolerance/ignorance...segregation & possible hate "works the best"...as you just demonstrated...!!!...
Can Smoking be GOOD for SOME People?
Many people send or give me their "stories" of [alleged] alien interaction. Very early in the Cassiopaean contact, I attended a party given by the owner of a local Metaphysical Book Store. As I...FUUUUURRRKKKKK me...How brainwashed & dumb is public to even consider or worst accept this BS.
Scuuuuzzze me...!!! ...I need a smoke right now...Can't believe this nonsense.
And if they search your house and find a butt-end, you will end up on the street,
with very happy children. Is that why you should not smoke in the street,
for the homeless children?
Going to take my beer and tobacco, fu** with all these clowns.







Your fascist insistence on running stories praising alcohol, smoking and meat consumption, (viz. your "fascist junk science" comments above) and insulting those who disagree, has already cost you many viewers - haven't you noticed how few comments you get any more, from your half-dozen loyalists and nobody else? You used to get 50+ comments on some stories - no longer. Does Laura know what you people are up to, or doesn't she care about politics and SOTT any more?
I encourage you with great enthusiasm and sincerity to eat nothing but meat, never to be without a cigarette in your hand, and to drink at least 10 Guinnesses and 6 Irish whiskies each night. This way, you will soon pass on to your well-earned reward, and leave SOTT to more impartial editors.
