At the time this happened, I was living in Montgomery County, Md (Germantown) and this was big news locally. The County subsequently retracted the law under which the dirty dirty smoker was arrested after receiving much derision for its lunacy.

This simply begs the question, where will it end? I saw a bit on the new this weekend that the anti-smoking lobbyists are pushing to get a special rating for movies that show people smoking.
