Another Legal Challenge to Omaha's Smoking Ban
An Omaha pool hall has joined the fight to stop Omaha's smoking ban.
Big John's Billiards filed a lawsuit asking a district court judge to overturn the smoking ban.
Attorneys for the business owners say the ordinance is unconstitutional because it gives an unfair advantage to businesses outside the city.

THIS RAISING THE PRICES ON CIGARETTES IS TARGETING AGAINST A SINGLE GROUP OF PEOPLE. ISN'T THAT DISCRIMINATION??? WHY SHOULD WE BE THE ONLY ONES TO HAVE TO PAY. IF THEY RAISED THE SALES TAX THRU OUT THE US THIS WOULD SOLVE ALOT OF PROBLEMS AND EVERYONE PAYS NOT A SINGLED OUT GROUP !!!!!
SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE !! THIS IS NOT RIGHT !!
