I'm not a Smoker but i never understood how the Government could force a privately owned Restaurant or Bar to ban smoking. No one is forced to enter any privately owned establishments. It's all choice. People always get mad at me when i bring this issue up. Private Owners of establishments should have the right to decide on whether or not to allow Smoking. You are not forced to enter these establishments. If they pay their Taxes and aren't breaking any Laws,the Government should just leave them alone. But all the Goose Steppers completely freak out when you speak such common sense. Years & years of Government Propaganda takes its toll i guess. So many are so willing to just give their rights away. Just another issue the Government has no business being involved with.
