Tell me what you think. I think that it is infringment on a smoker's rights to ban smoking in public places. If a restaurant or bar wants to be smoke free, that should be the business owner's decision. Tupelo, MS recently passed a ban that goes into effect in October. Not only can you not smoke in a public building, but you cannot smoke within 25 feet of the front door, or 10 feet of the back door. Thus, you cannot walk down the street and smoke. As a smoker, this irritates me. As a member of a "free and democratic society", this infuriates me. Last time I checked, tobacco was a legal substance. What about all those irritating people who wear enough perfume to choke a dead horse? Betcha they won't ban them from firing up my allergies!!!!
