Another example of government interfering in our lives. If you think having a law like this makes us a better community, you are sadly mistaken. All that will be accomplished is hurting business because if you think people won't drive 5 minutes to Plymouth, you're sadly mistaken. STAY OUT OF PEOPLE'S LIVES.
I have never been a smoker, will never be a smoker & honestly dislike the smell of cigarette smoke, if you're considered a legal adult at 18 & can fight for our country, you shouldn't need the town babysitting your lungs!
I think this is big brother going too far...young people join the military at 18...get married at 18 but can't smoke.. they know it's bad for them and it's still bad if you're 21 or 31..!!!
This is crap at least grandfather in those of us who are old enough already.
This would not stop smoking for 18-21 They would just buy in Next town.
Kingston's Board of Health has overstepped and should be worrying about the effects of wind power on residents. How clean our grocery stores & restaurants are. Not wasting time creating bogus laws that just show they're out to look good and tell people they know what is best for adults.
Beyond their scope. Terrible habit, but not their place to regulate

This is a complete over reach of the boards power that will hurt small businesses in town. At 18, you can defend our country, go to college, vote, buy a home, etc. but you can't buy tobacco in town? Ridiculous.
