Question: Is it Right to Ban Smoking on Train Platforms?
Smoking on MTA platforms, including Harrison's, will soon be against the law. Is this the proper response to a public health issue or just an annoyance to smokers.

New York State's smokers will soon face another obstacle while looking for a place to light-up.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo recently signed legislation banning smoking from MTA lots. The new ban will go into affect in a little less than three months. The smoking ban will include Harrison's train station and all others operated by the MTA and LIRR.
Do you think this is fair to smokers? The ban was created to protect people from second-hand smoke while making their commute, did you think second hand smoke was a problem?
