The tobacco bans bulldoze all the barriers to intrusive regulation, establishing the precedent that the rights and/or liberties of the individual can be violated whenever the local city council decides that the "public good" demands it.Used the word "rights" and you will have the statists demanding to see where that "right" is enumerated in the constitution.

That's EASY! All rights NOT listed in the constitution are reserved to the state, OR THE INDIVIDUAL. NOT the fedgov.
