I like getting laid with my drink, but there's no right to do that.
Ahh, but having sex in public is illegal. Smoking is a legal activity.

Personally, I am against the government dictating what publically legal activities can and cannot happen in a privately held public establishment.


...and no, I'm not a smoker. I just prefer freedom.

this is one of those topics I don't really care about what happens. It's kind of funny to watch people get all spun up about it though. I'm a smoker, I have to go outside to smoke at work. The DOD banned all smoking in bars on military installations. I hate the smoking section in a restaurant. So I can't smoke in a bar, most bars I've seen where this is in effect have a designated smoking area where you can take/buy drinks at. I liked hown they did it in Miami, the establishments themselves decided whether or not to ban smoking. That provided great advertising.

And that's the way it should be. Owners can set the rules. If an owner wants to cater to non-smokers, they can do that and advertise their non-smoking status. I know many people who would prefer a bar like that. As there is a shift towards non-smokers, businesses will take notice and change their business practices or they will fail. The market should dictate, not the government.
