I never cease to be amazed at conservatives who whine about minority rule yet when the majority clearly decides they do not want public smoking they scream tyranny!
Actually I want constitutional government, not mob rule. After all there was a time when a majority of Americans supported slavery but it didn't make it constitutional.

Majority rule is two wolves and a sheep voting on what’s for dinner.

What is not Constitutional about a group of elected leaders following the will of their constituents and enacting a law against public smoking?
There was a time when one could smoke on a plane too...
