Sure, but I don't hogtie you in the garage with the exhaust going. Get a grip



Unless you are driving in your garage, your rights end at my nose.
Carbon monoxide still comes out of your car.
Why is someone smoking a cigarette more selfish than someone spewing their car exhaust in someones face.

Yes it does, and technology will hopefully change that in the not too distant future. But for now, the fumes are dispersed into the atnmosphere and are not as dangerous as the fumes from the cancer stick in an enclosed room.

I realize that she is elderly, but last time I checked the US Constitution there were no special rights for the elderly who want to smoke in an enclosed area taking away the rights of others.

Bottom line is that she can smoke in an enclosed area: daughter's place - another place..etc. She cannot however force the owners of this nursing home to do what she wants.
