TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- The Florida Senate has voted to ban the sale of smoking pipes and similar items except at stores that mostly sell tobacco products.
Possession and sale of drug paraphernalia already is a crime, but the bill (SB 366) that passed 36-0 Wednesday is aimed at devices that can be used for tobacco as well as illegal substances.
It would exempt businesses getting at least 75 percent of gross sales from tobacco products and no more than 25 percent from the prohibited items.
Those include bongs, water pipes, chamber pipes, electric pipes, air-driven pipes, chillums, and ice pipes or chillers. Violators could face a year in jail.
