It could happen! ABC Action News reports Republican Senator Joe Gruters filed the bill today that would put a ban on smoking on public beaches throughout the state of Florida. Punishment would be a $25 fine or you could get 10 hours of community service. Where do you fall on this one?
SYDNEY - MAY 19: A smoker enjoys a cigarette on Bondi Beach May 19, 2004 in Sydney, Australia. Waverley Council has passed a motion to investigate the legalities and enforcement of a smoking ban on the Council's beaches, including Bondi, after Manly Council recently outlawed smoking on beaches, making it the first place in the world outside Los Angeles to do so. Data from Clean Up Australia showed 32 billion cigarette butts were dropped in Australia each year, and that at any given time there were 700,000 on Bondi Beach. (Photo by Matt King/Getty Images)
