If you look at my stances on things you will see my stance on this isn't much different (if at all) concerning any social/moral issue.
If smoking is that offensive, just make it totally illegal.
BTW Analog, your example is not a good one considering weed is illegal. Now, Canada or some other areas where weed is legal and there are bars where people go there to smoke it.... then I would know what I was walking into or walked into (if I didn't know until I entered)..... and I have the choice to go there or not. My choice to enter the place or not....
Why do I need the government dictating my choices to me?
And again, like I said if a non-smoker who wants a ban stated they would be for eliminating the taxes on cigarettes, then I would listen and perhaps agree with his plans.
If a place at their own expense put in separate ventilation and rooms to separate smokers then who and what gives you the right to void all that and tell the owner he can't allow any smoking at all?

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
