Explain why there can't be a "smoker bar" or restaurant. If you
are offended or fear for your life, don't go near the place.

Employees.

We abolished slavery 151 years ago. If the employees don't want to
work around smokers, they can seek employment elsewhere.
We had 2 restaurants here, same franchise, less than a mile apart.
The owner wanted to make one smoking and one non-smoking. The smoke
ninnies were not happy with that and he ended up closing the smoking
one. This was a BBQ joint that was full of hickory smoke all the
time, selling high fat foods. (the last place I know of that still
fries potatoes in animal fat) Health freaks would not go to either
of them.



Agree. The classic example is that here and in many places, you
can't even have a once a month cigar dinner in a private room at a
restaurant.


When you smoke in a room like that, the smoke and all the chemicals
and carcinogens in that smoke is absorbed into the furniture, carpet,
window curtains or shades, everything.


So don't go there.

How about your house? How much formaldehyde is offgassing from your various
furnishings?


Not to mention fecal fumes.
