I smoke (especially when I drink), so I'm all for smoking wherever (not to mention that I'm from North Carolina where all the cigarettes are made).

I hate it when a city passes a law that prohibits businesses from making their own decision on this subject. If they want to have smoke-filled bar or restaurant, and don't care about turning away or turning off the non-smokers, then they should be able to do that.

This whole discsussion, to me, is a classic case of the government thinking that they know better than the people. "Smoke-free" cities (like Boston, or LA) that have already passes laws like this just piss me off.
