TO THE EDITOR:
OK here's the deal. I'm a smoker and while I don't like the placement of the smoking area at the flagpole I don't really mind that there are restrictions to where we can smoke.
The real reason I'm writing is because I find it disgusting that there are thousands of cigarette butts everywhere around the flagpole.
Seriously throwing down your cigarette butts is no different than throwing down a can or any other trash- it's littering.
Next time you're about to throw down a butt look at the ground and notice the butt carpet under your feet then put your butt in the ash tray.
