New York (CNN) -- Smokers in New York City looking to light up in most public places will not be able to without paying a price after an outdoor citywide smoking ban takes effect Monday.
The law, which Mayor Michael Bloomberg signed in February after it was passed by the New York City Council, will make smoking illegal in New York City's 1,700 parks and on the city's 14 miles of public beaches. Smoking will also be prohibited in pedestrian plazas like Times Square.

And just as an afterthought here, the Mayor talks about cigarette butts as being the second most important factor in imposing this new law on us. Well gee Mr. Mayor, why not enforce the littering laws already on the books? NYC is a fuckin dump and it's not because of cigarette butts.
This is all just another excuse for the bacon to pull some shit LIKE THIS on you.
