First Dallas, now Austin.Austin imported strip malls, then Californians, now smoking bans. Austin has just succeeded in becoming just another Dallas or Houston. Bye bye "weird Austin" forever.

You can't smoke in theater's, sporting events, concerts, plays, operas, or any other indoor (and some outdoor) public performance, because a majority of the people don't want to breathe SHS. Why would a bar be any different?
You can still smoke; just not there. You can still carry a firearm; just not there. Your rights are not being violated, you are just being prevented from pushing your right to smoke above the majority's right to breathe clean air.
