I am going to quote a couple of sentences from a news item (from AP)
that I found in today's newspaper.
 
"New York's tough statewide anti-smoking law ... is being challenged
in court by two men who claim the statue is discriminatory.
Joseph Fagan and Thomas Blau said their addiction to smoking makes
them disabled. The two said they would be discriminated against if they
cannot smoke at work and in public buildings ... "
