Thursday, March 30, 2023

We posted the sign of firearms free zone, then a sign about homeless and drug addiction in our city, Baton Rouge, LA.

A couple days ago, we found the sign of Drug, Smoke and Alcohol Free Campus hang on the side wall of our city community college entrance. The campus has about 8,500 students enrollment in recent years.


What make me wonder is the word “smoke!”. Is it a problem for young generation in our state or America?

Louisiana is the third higher rate of smoking in the USA. National smoking rate is 15.5%.


The top 3 states with higher smoking rate for adults in 2023:

1) West Virginia, 23.8%

2) Kentucky, 23.6%

3) Louisiana, 21.9%

Louisiana state government prohibits smoking on properties belong to the state since 2014, then revised in 2015.

  4. I agree with Louisiana's policy-makers! The rate of smoking in the EU has decreased thanks to legislative measures.
