Default Where should smoking be illegal?

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.


Stop sniffing them then.


Kind of a silly statement there ...


You're the one that said smoke is absorbed into furniture etc, so how
does that harm you unless you sniff or lick the furniture?


How is a non-smoker supposed to know a previous event took place in a
restaurant that allowed smoking?

Additionally, a non-smoker can enter a room where smoking had taken
place and they can smell the stench - it emanates from the objects that
have absorbed the chemicals. After a smoking event has been allowed to
take place in a restaurant area, it's no longer conducive to being a
healthy area for a non-smoker.

How many events can a restaurant owner book that allow for smoking these
days, and how many non-smokers would never book the same area for events
because of the stench left behind?

It's not financially smart to book events that allow smoking.
