What an old fashioned concept, letting people make decisions for themselves instead of having the nanny fedgov dictate what's best for them.

Ironically, in this case it's the nanny state telling the nanny local government not to be nannies to the individual.

I expect the nanny federales to tell the nanny state to stop telling the nanny local government to be nannies to the poor helpless individuals.

I hope that smoking restaurants will in the near future be treated with the same disgust as a restraurant which openly allowed chewing tobacco and spitting. But since I don't own the restaurants, my only moral option is to choose not to patronize them, not threaten them with government violence if they don't do what I want them to.
