Smoking ban in Hawaii? Prohibition worked, right? Oh...
IMO it is more effective to restrict where smoking is allowed. When the addicted smokers have to cluster around a common ashtray a specific distance from the entrance to any public building, it alters the allure of smoking. Rules should apply to any form of tobacco usage, including vaping. Even California did not restrict smoking on beaches, though it was attempted. Each island should set their own rules. Oahu is very different from Hawaii Island.
