Okay, I'm a smoker and I'm in the camp that says no, this post has not gone too far. I'm also a Californian and I've seen the devastation caused by a lit cigarette tossed out of a car window. Not a pretty sight. Think I'd be picking up this man's butts and waiting til I have a decent collection. Then, I'd follow him home and leave them with a portable ashtray (get one at the dollar store) and a note on his front porch stating these were his butts picked up from the period X through Y and a simple request to please use the ashtray. You don't have to confront him and, who knows, the simple request might work.
