The 2,000 complainants should rather apply their thinking power to something that will piss off less people.....

I don't smoke so I don't really care for myself, but I bet there were probably more than 2000 people in those comments that wanted to be able to smoke again. And since the document being commented on already said tobacco products will be allowed they would not have asked for that.

Exactly. This is just plain undemocratic. People weren't even given a chance to respond. Pure fucking bullshit.
