Well S.F. is out against cigars on golf course

San Fran may be hard on smokers, but apparently not quite as bad as Toronto...

TORONTO (Reuters) – A Canadian truck driver has been fined for smoking in his vehicle because it is considered his workplace, a police spokeswoman said on Friday.

A police officer saw the 48-year-old trucker driving on a highway in southwestern Ontario with a cigarette in his mouth on Wednesday, and gave him a C$305 ($290) ticket.

The Smoke-Free Ontario Act, adopted in 2006, prohibits smoking in an enclosed workplace or enclosed public area, and that extends to work vehicles, said Constable Shawna Coulter of the Ontario Provincial Police in Essex County.

You can't smoke a cigar in public but you coud spark up your joint from your "medicinal" marijuana stash.

While I enjoy weather and sights of California, our politicians are pretty much ass-backwards retarded at State and Local levels. Especially San Francisco and Berkeley with all the crazy left-wing nut jobs. They care more about the rights of criminals than they do about law abiding citizens.

Take this new law regarding ammo signed by the Governor. I'm sure it will put an end to gun related crime.

The measure is California's first statewide regulation of ammunition sales. It survived close votes in both the Assembly and state Senate and strong opposition from gun-rights organizations, which succeeded in stripping a provision that would have required sellers of more than 50 rounds of ammunition a month to be licensed by the state.

Starting in July, the law will require dealers to keep records of handgun ammunition sales for at least five years, and store the bullets securely out of customers' reach.

Like gun transactions, all ammunition sales will have to be face-to-face, a requirement that will force online buyers to arrange delivery of ammunition to a seller in California. Another provision makes it a crime to knowingly sell or give ammunition to someone who cannot possess it legally, including felons, gang members and the mentally ill.

As of February 2011, all ammunition buyers will have to provide a driver's license or other state identification and a thumbprint.

De León said Monday that the bill gives police "a valuable tool to crack down on armed, dangerous criminals and gang-bangers in our communities."

Opponents said the restrictions would burden gun owners and dealers without impeding criminals.

Maybe this dumbass De León thinks that criminals are not aware that California has neighboring states with very lax gun/ammo laws.
