Smoking in Bars

Re “Inspectors Find Smokers in More Than 80 Bars,” July 28:
Shame on L.A. Councilwoman Laura Chick for pushing fire marshals to ticket smokers in bars who are exercising their freedom of choice to use a legal drug. The City Council should put its efforts into demanding that OSHA come up with a long-overdue solution as to approval of a functional exhaust system that will satisfy nonsmokers. As for the smoke busters, instead of bars, they should concentrate on school campuses to save the youth!
