NYC busts shop owner for ashtray

Strange.....

Link

<snip>

A business owner who left an ashtray sitting out in his shop has been fined $6,000 by New York City's health inspector, who was enforcing the city's tough, new anti-smoking law.

Brooklyn video-store owner Marty Arno also was charged with not having "No Smoking" signs and not posting his company's official nonsmoking policy, the New York Post reported.

On the ticket, health inspectors M. Dundas and S. Holloway reported: "One (1) ashtray with cigarette butt, and ashes, was seen on the counter of the establishment."

2. Assclowns! Love it.

Question...

If you ran a business in NYC as a one-man, all by your lonesome, deal, can you smoke in your establishment? What if you run that business out of your home?

4. What does RKBA have to do with this?

Or is this another attempt to hijack a thread?
