It Could Happen Here
A Swedish woman has been banned from smoking in her own backyard.
A Swedish woman has been banned from smoking in her garden in a trial headed by the Environmental Court in Vaxjo.
The 49-year-old single mother from Akarp, Sweden, said she is enraged by the decision but admitted that she will obey the ruling to avoid having to pay a fine, The Local reported Thursday.
. . .The ban came after the woman?s neighbor, a lawyer with an aversion to smoke, contacted the Environmental Court over the issue after attempting to sue the woman for smoking near him.
Environmental courts, an attack on smokers, a complete disregard for private property…all this sounds a lot like the lefts vision for America.
