If you want to kill yourself, do it in the privacy of your own home, not in a public setting.
Owners of businesses do not have the right to enforce laws as they see fit, they are subject to the law just like anyone else.
Smoking in public should be illegal, and eventually it will be. Anything that occurs in the meantime is just delaying that.

so you're perfectly fine with telling private property owners what they can and cannot do/allow on their own property?

It has nothing to do with "being a child". Smoking, in public should be illegal. If you were smoking water vapor I wouldn't care, however, you are smoking a carcinogen, and I'd rather not have going to a bar be a health risk to my lungs and heart.

it actually does have something to do with your childishness. You want to enforce a business practice or policy via law on a business that you don't even own. That is so wrong on an unbelievable number of levels.
