So is drinking. So is biting ones fingernails. So are a host of other
things.

Believe it or not, there are a bunch of people that just don't want the
government, you or anyone else what they can and cannot do.


When someone elses right or freedom harms me or someone else, that right
becomes limited. That's a logical response.


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.


It seems restaurant owners don't want to cater to just smokers because
that eliminates a growing population of people who would not ever
become patrons of that business because of the health hazards there.


That's fine...if the owner wants to run a smoke free place, he should be -
and is - free to do so. However, when they pass laws FORCING him to do so,
they have stepped over the line.


The problem with smoking areas in public places is the smoke doesn't
STAY in the smoking areas.
