sort of:
Good news for non-smoking New Yorkers who occasionally catch a whiff of cigarette smoke for a half-second while they're walking outdoors: Mayor Michael Bloomberg signed a law today making sure this never happens again! No promises, though.
The new smoking ban expansion, which made it out of city council earlier this month, extends to the city's "1,700 parks and 14 miles of public beaches. City pools and recreation centers will also be smoke free." Anywhere else? "The bill bans smoking in city pedestrian plazas, like in Times Square, as well." Again: It will be illegal to smoke a cigarette in Times Square, the famous neon dumpster. Who will inform the tourists?
The bill goes into effect in 90 days, so get dozens of cartons of Luckies and park yourself on your favorite Central Park bench right now. Whenever the ashtray fills, empty it on a jogger's head, or perhaps next to a family of ducks, specifically to ? Michael Bloomberg off.
Not that it really matters. When the law does go into effect, if you'll recall, NYPD officers won't be used to enforce it and issue the small fine.....
Snitches Will Enforce Bloomberg’s Latest Smoking Ban
Mayor Mike said yesterday that the NYPD won't be used to enforce the city's new ban on smoking at public beaches and in parks. So who will be monitoring the air quality of New York's public spaces? The concerned citizens of New York, that's who!

They got the same law out here in Washington State. Don't worry ain't ? gonna happen. Pretty much anything owned by the state you're not supposed to smoke at. But muhfuckas still smoke at the parks and beaches all the time. It really is an excuse for cops to ? with people especially after hours in those certain areas.

cigs should be illegal

If weed is illegal cigs should be too.
But the better solution is to make it ALL legal. -
so i'm just going to point out that Bloomberg is an ? . i'm not actually saying it's solely because of THIS... just that he's an ? .

lol, there's no way they'll be able to effectively enforce this in a city as big as NYC.
