Alma AdamsRep. Alma Adams atoned for her days of smoking.

The Greensboro Democrat recalled her years of smoking, including on the floor of the legislature.

She said Rep. Dan Blue, who sat behind her, used to have a little fan on his desk to blow away her smoke.

Adams also noted that smoking particularly hurts women and African-Americans.

What a hypocrite. When she smoked, she could do it whereever she pleased. Now that she no longer smokes, she can't bear the thought of extending the courtesy to others.
