No, they actually created a law that took their right to act as adults away from them. That's what nannies do.

It is obvious that smokers needed to be treated like small children. They were indifferent about the affect their smoking had on others, threw their butts wherever they pleased, burned holes in furniture and acted outraged whenever they were asked to show some consideration of others
You seem to need to go on tangents that don't apply to the subject at hand.
Why would that be rightwinger?
The subject is smoking IN PRIVATE businesses.
If you want to speak of being considerate, how about being considerate enough to NOT ENTER a business persons property who was CONSIDERATE enough to put their money into that business. AND considerate enough to POST A NOTICE on the front door that smoking is allowed.
OK, ready for your next childish deflection........
