Here's my take on it, Banning smoking in public facility's is fine with me except for bars/clubs..The majority of people who attend bars/clubs smoke and the numbers show it, Every bar/club in my city is struggling with this new law, Although last time i was at my buddy's work (Doormen at a strip club) they had a smoking room which was a glass room with ventilation. I was talking to the owner of the club and he was saying the smoking ban doesn't take full effect until 2006 or 07..Then there is absolutly no smoking anywhere in the club.
This ban doesn't bother me much as i do not attend bars/clubs like i use too, But it bugs me that bars/clubs are now struggling in an industry that was always booming because of somebody who is probably a non smoker thinks this is what's best...Of course non smokers are going to agree and smokers are gonna think it's bullshit. I'm a smoker and have no problem with smoking outside..I actually prefer to smoke outside.
Bars do have ventilation systems for the smoke and IMO they do a pretty good job, Some better than others..Why not make bars/clubs up to code with the ventilation systems that have lower class ones, Why don't the non smokers open up thier own "Smoke Free Bars"?? Because they wouldn't survive, That's why..Look at the current bars, I bet alot of small bar owners are gonna be closing shop because of this and that sucks.
