Is smoking referenced in the Constitution?

Yes, it is, along with bicycle riding, playing darts, and a million other things one might choose to do.

Seriously, though, you need to understand what tyranny is to understand that banning smoking altogether (something I do not support) would be far from it.

I seriously can't believe that you began that sentence with "seriously".

It is? Wow. I must have missed that. Until smoking is either classified as a private and individual act (which it, in public, is not) or smokers are classified as a protected group, there is actually no constitutional right to smoke.

Seriously.
